Having been together (on and off…) for the last five years, it’s safe to say Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik have garnered some major ‘Zigi’ stans.
This is exactly why the internet went into meltdown earlier this week when it was mentioned that the couple had tied the knot.
Singer-songwriter, Ingrid Michaelson, who has been collaborating with Malik on some music lately, was conducting a live stream with her fans on her Patreon page and she referred to the couple as married.
Naturally, Zigi fans quickly picked up on this and ran with it and quickly the phrase “Zayn is married” began trending on Twitter.

However, it turns out, the couple aren’t married as far as we know. Michaelson simply accidentally presumed the pair were married.
“As far as I know, he’s not married. It was a mistake,” she clarified on social media. I’m so sorry.”
The singer also added that she’s never dealt with this level of fame before and “doesn’t live in this world”.
“The level of fame, it makes me really, truly admire Zayn and anybody with that level of fame,” she admitted. “Every little thing you say is just – I’m not built for it.”
She also issued an apology directly to the couple.
“My apologies to Zayn and Gigi, if any of this trickles to you and is annoying,” she added. “I’m sorry — that’s not my intention. And to his fans, I’m sorry for getting you all riled up, and much love to you all.”
Welcoming their new baby girl
While the couple aren’t married, to our knowledge, the pair did recently take a big in their relationship welcoming their first child together back in September 2020.
Hadid and Malik announced the birth of their first-born via social media back in September – a baby girl later to be revealed named Khai.
The new mum took to Instagram to announce the news sharing a sweet photo of her daughter’s hand.
“Our girl joined us earth-side this weekend and she’s already changed our world,” she captioned the photo. “So in love.”
