Zayn Malik Touches on Fatherhood in Heartwarming Birthday Message for Khai

Zayn Malik melted hearts with a heartfelt tribute to his daughter, Khai, to celebrate her fourth birthday.

The former One Direction member took to his Instagram account to share a touching note for his daughter, which he shared with his ex-girlfriend Gigi Hadid.

He dropped the photo of himself carrying his daughter in his arms and looking out at the endless sea, because the photo had been taken from behind.

Malik captioned the post: “Happy birthday to the most important person in my life, I love you more than words can express, beyond proud to call you my daughter. I am grateful for every second I get to spend with you as you grow into 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.”

Khai’s mother, the model, also took to her Instagram to express her feelings on her daughter’s birthday.

She wrote: “Our daughter is 4 today and we have been celebrating all week!!! She loves animals (fantasy ones too), music, baby Yoda, anything nature and bugs, Descendants, anything squishy or miniature, and if possible she will be in water from dawn to dusk.”

Hadid continued: “She is curious, adventurous, loving and so spiritual Khai – it is the greatest joy and pride of my life to be your mommy!!!! Thank you for the best four years of my life – you remind me to live life to the fullest every day, in the simplest and most beautiful ways. Your possibilities are endless my sweetest love!!!! YODA BEST”

It is worth noting that the couple, who began their romance in 2015 and called it quits in 2021, announced the birth of their daughter, Khai, on social media on September 22, 2020.
