On Fatherhood
Now, in what is his first interview in six years, Zayn made a rare comment about fatherhood in a ‘Call Her Daddy’ podcast episode set to air on Wednesday. He said, “Since Iāve had my daughter, the main thing in my mind is trying to be a good example to her. Thatās why Iām even doing this interview, you know? I used to get a lot of anxiety around having a conversation like this. And I want her to be able to look at me and be like, āYo, my dadās doing this.āā
On making dad jokes
In the same episode teaser, Zayn also opened up about one quality as a dad that he is proud of, and said that he says a lot of dad jokes. “I keep being told Iām telling dad jokes. And Iām leaning into it. Iām just like, āItās OK. Itās cool.ā People just look at me like Iām a weirdo, and Iām like, āYeah, Iām a dad, Iām allowed to tell these jokes now.āā he said.
Last year in September, Gigi Hadid celebrated Khaiās second birthday and mentioned Zayn Malik’s name on her Instagram Stories. While Gigiās pic didnāt feature Khai, the rare post did mention Zayn Malik. It read, āOur angel girl turned 2 today,ā with some emojis.
