Zayn Malik Sparks Debate After 'Diabolical' Comments About Relationship with Gigi Hadid

On Feb. 11, 2026, Malik told the Call Her Daddy podcast he’s unsure if he ever fell in love with Gigi Hadid but will always love and respect her as the mother of their child.
Dating from about 2015 to 2021, the pair had their daughter Khai in September 2020 as Malik said people "live and learn" and his understanding of love has evolved.
Contextually, Malik’s past legal troubles also inform reactions, as he pleaded no contest to four counts and received 360 days probation, prompting viral backlash on X.
Malik’s comments arrive weeks ahead of his album release as he prepares to unveil Konnakol, his fifth studio album, on April 17, 2026, following his Feb. 6 single, Die For Me.
Malik said parenting and career limit his dating options and that he would marry before introducing someone to Khai, while Hadid has been with Bradley Cooper since 2023.
