During a recent interview with Logan Paul, Liam Payne shared an update on his relationship with former One Direction bandmate Zayn Malik, saying in part, ...

What I can say is I understand and your only hope is that at some point in their life the person on the other end of the phone wants to receive the help that you're willing to give them. Gigi and Zayn, who share 20-month-old daughter Khai, broke up last year amid reports he'd gotten into an argument with her mom Yolanda Hadid at the Pennsylvania home he shared with Gigi. According to a police report obtained by E! News in 2021, Zayn was accused of acting with "intent to harass, annoy or alarm" Gigi—who had been away at the time—and Yolanda and communicating "lewd, lascivious, threatening or obscene words." I can't commend some of the things that he's done. It's like I can't sit here and d--k on him because of whatever. According to court documents obtained by E! News, he faced up to 90 days of probation for each count. However, this didn't sit well with Zayn's then-girlfriend Gigi Hadid, who called Zayn a "respectful king" and Jake an "irrelevant ugly ass" on Twitter.

“Watch this space,” he told Logan Paul. Sweetie, the only thing there is to watch is mess. Enough now.” Perhaps all this self-sabotage and foolishness is a PR move to deflect from the reality of his cheating. Not to sound like a stan or anything, but according to memory, his latest music ventures have made zero noise.

Liam Payne Details Violent One Direction Backstage Fight, Admits to ... (Variety)

During Logan Paul's podcast, ex-One Direction member Liam Payne details a violent band fight backstage and says he "dislikes" Zayn Malik.

He details his 2015 feud with Justin Bieber (which he chalked up to having too many drinks on an Instagram live), hotel room shenanigans and admitted to “still not knowing who I am, I replicate different people on a daily basis.” He’s got this spirit.” He also admitted that he and Tomlinson “hated each other” during their time in the band but added that the two are best of friends now. Although he didn’t disclose with whom the scuffle was — Payne went on to discuss Zayn Malik’s past controversies including one headline-making Twitter feud with Logan’s brother, Jake Paul, in 2020.

From a tabloid perspective, the spiciest part of Payne's Impaulsive interview was ostensibly his comments about inter-One Direction drama. He shared a story ...

But the remarks that really seemed to earn the biggest pushback were Payne’s rather wild claims about his post-1D solo career. On top of that, Payne spoke a bit about Zayn Malik and his past controversies, including a feud with Paul’s brother, Jake Paul, and last year’s allegations that Malik pushed Gigi Hadid’s mother during an altercation (Malik ultimately pleaded no contest to charges against him). While Payne said there were “many reasons why I dislike Zayne,” he noted there were also “many reasons why I’ll always, always be on his side. Arguably less defensible was the general levels of cringe Payne exuded throughout the interview, which fans pored over and thoroughly roasted him for on social media. From a tabloid perspective, the spiciest part of Payne’s Impaulsive interview was ostensibly his comments about inter-One Direction drama. Zayn had a different upbringing in that sense.” Elsewhere, one fan highlighted the mortifying way Payne preceded his story about the backstage argument with a little attempt at chest-puffing (“I think it was well-known within the band that I don’t like taking shit,” he said rather stiltedly). Another went beyond the 1D comments to Payne’s bold claims about getting in the boxing ring with the Paul brothers and KSI, another internet celebrity and occasional fighter.
