Zayn Malik calls off engagement
CEBU, Philippines - Zayn Malik is solo once again.
The former One Direction member has ended his engagement to fiancée Perrie Edwards, ET has confirmed.
The news comes two years after the pair got engaged in August of 2013.
The 22-year-old heartthrob reportedly ended it with the Little Mix performer nearly two weeks ago, leaving Edwards “devastated.”
“She’s been putting on a brave face as Little Mix have had promotion to do,” a source told People magazine, which first broke the news.
Edwards has already shed her ring as evident in a photograph posted to Instagram by her bandmate, Jesy Nelson.
After dating for a year, the couple got engaged, but their relationship has experienced very public ups and downs ever since.
Earlier this year, rumors swirled that Malik reportedly cheated on Edwards. However, the singer quickly took to Twitter to deny any wrongdoing. “I love a girl named Perrie Edwards,” he wrote in March of 2015. “And there’s a lot of jealous [expletive] in this world. I.m sorry for what it looks like.”
Less than a month later, shortly after Malik quit One Direction, he and Edwards displayed tons of PDA during a romantic getaway.
While the relationship has been relatively quiet during recent months, Malik has been garnering headlines of his own with news that he signed a deal with RCA Records to make “#realmusic.”
Meanwhile, One Direction has since bounced back after Malik’s departure. They recently released a new hit single, and took to the Good Morning America stage to address the news that Louis Tomlinson is going to be a father. (FREEMAN)
