Zayn never speaks up on any rumor about himself but he chose to speak up now because it also involves his daughter. Everyone should give him & Khai the respect and privacy they deserve. Zayn's mother unfollowing both Gigi Hadid and Yolanda Hadid. Her loyalty to her son runs deep.

Yolanda is a sick woman for taking a photo of Gigi & Zayn¡¯s baby, and leaking it to the press. She cares more about publicity than keeping her grandchild safe.. pic.twitter.com/jOgK1M2FSb

Zayn denied the accusation to TMZ and seemingly referred to the claims in a tweet on Thursday in which he said he has "agreed not to contest claims arising from an argument I had with a family member of my partner's who entered our home while my partner was away several weeks ago."

Gigi and Zayn have been in an on-and-off relationship since 2015, though they last rekindled their romance in 2019.
Twitter
Two months later, Gigi confirmed they were officially back together by sharing a photo of "Z" on her family's farm in honor of Valentine's Day.
"HEY VALENTINE," she wrote. Zayn and Gigi welcomed their first child together in September 2020.
Instagram
The couple has been fiercely private regarding details about their little girl--including keeping her face out of the social media photos they share to ensure her privacy.
