Are Gigi and Zayn on a break or just playing it cool?

GIGI Hadid and Zayn Malik have reportedly been spending time apart ‘since early November’. Rumours of a split have circulated due to a lack of appearances on each other’s social media and the pair haven’t been photographed together in months. An insider told E! News that the singer, 25, and model, 23, both ‘think that time apart is best for the sake of their relationship right now’. ‘Both been really focused on themselves and their separate careers,’ the source said. ‘Zayn has been in the studio recording new music and pushing out his new album, while Gigi has been focusing a lot of time on herself.’ Gigi spent the festive season sharing throwback pictures of herself, sister Bella and mom Yolanda with Santa, but no pictures of Zayn. The last documented time the Victoria’s Secret model acknowledged her beau, pictured right with his mother Trish, on social media was on October 21. At the time, she wrote: ‘Flyin’ home to my happy place,’ while cosying up to the singer. There are no photos of Gigi on Zayn’s Instagram account, and he does not follow her. However, she is one of his 30.2million fans. Zayn explained this situation in July in a conversation with GQ, saying: ‘We don’t need to put a label on it, make it something for people’s expectations.’ Earlier in the month, the Vogue star retweeted a cryptic post from singer Kehlani that read: ‘I do not owe you myself. I do not owe you any information about me beyond what I choose for you to know. I do not owe you strength when I am weak. I do not owe you answers just because you ask.’
