Gigi Hadid “offered her support” to ex-boyfriend Zayn Malik after the passing of his former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne.
“Gigi reached out to Zayn to offer her condolences after Liam’s passing,” a source exclusively tells Page Six.
Our insider explains that the model “was there to listen and offered her support if Zayn needed anything at all or just wanted to talk.”
Reps for Hadid and Malik didn’t immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
Payne died on Oct. 16 after falling three stories from his room at CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The UK-born singer-songwriter’s former One Direction bandmates were amongst the mourners at his funeral Wednesday in England’s Home Counties.
Malik was joined by Harry Styles, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson for the first time in nearly nine years as they paid their respects to the late singer.
Our source tells Page Six that “Gigi and Zayn have had their ups and downs over the years but they’ve come a long way and are on much better terms.”
“Their main focus is on coparenting Khai and they have been able to get along well.”
Hadid and Malik “spend time together with their daughter including her fourth birthday this past September.”
Hadid and Malik dated on and off for six years starting in 2015, and later welcomed their daughter, Khai, in September 2020.
The former couple called it quits for good one year later and focused on maintaining an amicable coparenting relationship.
“Gigi and Zayn realize that they’re both going to be in each other’s lives and they’re both very mature,” the insider says.
“They just want what’s best for their daughter and they’re able to put any differences aside that they’ve had in the past and come together on the same page.”
