ZAYN Malik has shared a very rare photo of his daughter that he shares with Gigi Hadid on the beach in a sweet birthday post.

The two, who called it quits in 2021, welcomed their baby girl into the world a year prior.
Proud dad Zayn posted a sweet picture of the father daughter duo looking out at the sea while at the beach.
Zayn captioned the post: “Happy birthday to the most important person in my life, I love you more than words allow me to express, beyond proud to call you my daughter..
“Grateful for every second I get to spend next to you, as you become the incredible person I know you already are.
“Four years ago today my life changed forever and I wouldn’t be the man I am today without you.”
Fans flocked to the comments section to share the love.
One wrote: “So proud of you. Khai is such a lucky kid to have a dad like you.”
Another added: “You’re a great dad.”
“Wishing Khai the best birthday ever with daddy Zayn,” a third chimed in.
Zayn and model Gigi, sister of Bella Hadid, started dating in 2015.
The pair had an on/off relationship until they got back together in 2019.
But then in October 2021 they decided to call things off for good.
Gigi is currently dating actor Bradley Cooper.
The pair were first linked together in 2023.

On October 28, 2021, it was reported that the fan favorite couple had broken up yet again.

“I’m making an official announcement tomorrow morning, let me know what date you want tickets for.”
Zayn shot to fame on The X Factor in 2010.
