Gigi & Zayn CUSTODY BATTLE

HAS AN ARGUMENT WITH THE MODEL’S MUM ENDED THE PAIR’S RELATIONSHIP FOR GOOD AND SPARKED AN ALL-OUT WAR OVER THEIR DAUGHTER?

- Sara Tapia

They’ve done their best to keep their lives as private as possible for two people in the public eye, but Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid had their dirty laundry aired for everyone to see recently. Allegations that the former One Direction singer, 28, had an altercation with his partner’s mother, Yolanda Hadid, surfaced on October 28, with court documents later confirming the reports of an argument, in which she claims he became physical, between the pair.

In the September 29 incident, at the ranch he shared with Gigi, 26, and their 13-month-old daughter Khai in Pennsylvania, Malik allegedly called the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star a “f--king Dutch slut” during a torrid row. Court papers allege that Malik also “shoved [Yolanda] into a dresser causing mental anguish and physical pain” and told her to “stay away from my f--king daughter”.

Although Gigi wasn’t present – having been in Paris for fashion week at the time – she reportedly heard their argument over the phone. She was also the recipient of Malik’s anger, with the court papers showing he allegedly told Gigi to “strap on some f--king balls and defend your partner against your f--king mother in my house”.
