Los Angeles, Feb 12

Singer-songwriter Zayn Malik is getting candid about his love life. The singer, 33, opened about whether he wants to be in another public relationship.

The singer has said that he is not interested in a public relationship again, reports 'People' magazine.

He told 'Call Her Daddy's Alex Cooper, "I'm not looking for a public relationship again. Just out of experience. No offense to anybody that I have been in public relationships with before. I've just learned from it that it don't work for me, you know?".

He went on, "I'm quite a private person. I don't really strive for people's approval or attention, so the relationship should really be between me and that person. I think that personality type, someone who doesn't want to do that, would be more suited to me".

As per 'People', the singer, born Zain Javadd Malik, has previously dated fellow musician Perrie Edwards and model Gigi Hadid. He and Hadid welcomed a daughter named Khai in 2020.

Malik also confirmed that he isn't currently dating anybody in the interview. Alex Cooper, 31, then asked about the 'Pillow Talk' artist's past dating habits, mentioning that he once revealed that he was on the dating app Tinder.

"No one ever believed it was me, to be honest with you, so it didn't really work for me", he said of his experience.

Elsewhere in the conversation, Malik spoke about his 2024 claim where he said, "I don't know if I've actually truly been in love at this point. My understanding of love is always developing. At that moment in time, I might have thought it was love, but as I got older, I realized maybe it wasn't. Maybe it was lust. Maybe it was this, maybe it was that. I don't feel like it was love".

Speaking about Hadid, he shared, "To be fair, just to say this on the record, I will always love G, because she is the reason my child is on this Earth, and I have the utmost respect for her. I will always love her, but I don't know if I was ever in love with her".

Saying he might never have been in love, even with the mother of his child... that's quite a heavy statement. Must be confusing for his daughter to read one day. Fame really messes with people's heads.

As a fan from his 1D days, it's sad to hear him say this. But it's also very mature. In our culture, relationships are often between families, not for public display. Maybe he's finding his own path. Still love his music!

The Tinder part made me laugh! Imagine matching with Zayn Malik and thinking it's a fake profile. 😂 His perspective on love evolving is something many of us in our 30s can relate to, celebrity or not.

Respectfully, I find the timing of this interview a bit calculated. He has an album to promote, right? Suddenly he's everywhere talking about his personal life while saying he wants privacy. The irony is strong.

His honesty is refreshing. In a world of curated Instagram relationships, he's admitting it's all messy and complicated. More power to him for prioritizing his peace and his child's well-being over public perception.
