More Evidence Gigi Hadid & Zayn Malik Are Dating

by Amy Mackelden

Rumors about the possibility of Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik dating have been growing for months, ranging from photos shared by the pair, to fans spotting them together. Malik's love life has been a major topic of conversation since he split from fiancée Perrie Edwards in August 2015, with many questioning what happened between the once loved-up pair. And, with news that he's soon to release new solo music, his first since leaving One Direction, it's no surprise that the public wants to know what Malik is going to do next. So, news that he's allegedly been spending a lot of time with Taylor Swift's BFF Gigi Hadid is amazing if it's true. We even have more evidence now, in the form of Hadid wearing a soccer shirt supporting the same team that Malik supports. Coincidence? Even Malik denies it is.

I have to admit, the pair do make a super cute couple — and it's exciting collecting up all the clues that suggest that Malik and Hadid might actually be dating. After all, what modern love story would be complete without people turning into detectives on the Internet, and piecing together all the information they can find? As Gigi Hadid seems to have posted photo proof that she is in fact dating Zayn Malik, it seems like the perfect time to document the potential couple in a timeline of all the evidence to date!
