Read our privacy policy Zayn Malik has opened up about how “amazing” it has been parenting his and Gigi Hadid’s newborn daughter Khai since they welcomed their first child together in September. I’m enjoying it, for sure.” As for the changes becoming a father has had on his life, the former One Direction band member revealed that he didn’t expect to be“quite as into it” as he has found himself, explaining that, before Khai, he “was always into myself” and mostly focused on his career – but that he has since found himself happy to be spending quality time with his daughter. It’s a really different pace of life, but it’s been really easy to adjust and that’s the most surprising.” During the conversation, the Dusk Till Dawn singer also praised Hadid’s skills as a mother, calling his longtime girlfriend a “wicked mom”. Explaining that he hasn’t really “thought about settling down yet”, even though he and Hadid share a child together, Malik said the pair are “still thinking about work and things we want to do career-wise”.
