Zayn Malik mocked for Gigi Hadid tattoo after couple announces breakup
Here’s another reason to think before you ink: For the second time in his young life, Zayn Malik has been left with a tattoo tribute to an ex-girlfriend.
The former One Direction member confirmed his split from supermodel Gigi Hadid on Tuesday, and some fans are wondering what he’ll be doing about the tattoo of the catwalker’s eyes inked across his chest.
The 25-year-old singer has had this issue before. Zayn previously had a tattoo on his bicep honoring his onetime fiancée, Little Mix member Perrie Edwards. Not long after the couple called off their engagement in 2015, he emerged with fresh ink covering the ode to Edwards.
According to new photos posted to Instagram, the British star has yet to remove his Hadid tribute.

The skin souvenir has prompted some amusement from fans.

Oddly enough, some supporters predicted that Zayn was jinxing the relationship when he revealed his Hadid-inspired ink in January.
But if Johnny Depp can make “Wino Forever” work after his split from Winona Ryder, there must be hope for Zayn.
