Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid dating: Victoria's Secret model's friends think 'this is going to last'

Zayn Malik has moved on his love life after splitting with Little Mix singer Perrie Edwards. The former One Direction star has fallen completely in love with Victoria's Secret model Gigi Hadid.

"Zayn and GiGi are getting serious," a source told E! News. "Gigi was so excited when Zayn asked her to be in his music video. They both acted very professional on set but it was very obvious that they were in love. They couldn't stop flirting with each other. Gigi and Bella really like the fact they are in music videos with their boyfriends."

"This relationship is very different then when she was with Jonas," the insider added. "Her friends think this is going to last!"

Rumours that Malik and Hadid are romantically involved started after he and the 20-year-old model were spotted in the same car following the American Music Awards after-party at Los Angeles' The Nice Guy club on 24 November 2015.

The 23-year-old singer released Pillow Talk on 29 January 2016, featuring Hadid. In the song's music video, the former British boy band member shared steamy kisses with Hadid confirming their relationship.

During an interview with the Billboard magazine, Malik talked about what he is looking for in a relationship. He said: "I need a challenge. Also, I like girls that are a bit chunky in certain areas — the nice areas. I like a fuller woman. I enjoy an intellectual conversation as well, where someone can construct a sentence beyond what hair and makeup they're wearing, and talk about something political or about the world. I like an opinion."
