Gigi Hadid is reportedly doing his best to shake off the painful confession from ex-partner Zayn Malik, with whom she shares daughter Khai.
Recently, Malik admitted that he doesn’t believe he’s ever been “in love” with the supermodel during their years-long relationship.
However, insiders revealed that the comment caught Hadid off guard and stirred up old emotions.
Despite being divorced from Malik for years and now dating Bradley Cooper, the source says, “Gigi is way more than hurt by what Zayn is saying, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a trigger for her.”
“She sees everything and didn’t like him shooting her,” the source told Radar Online.
Additionally, Gigi Hadid is reportedly “not interested” in publicly responding to Zayn Malik’s confession. “She would never give Zayn the satisfaction of saying anything directly in response. She’s not interested in a big public fight with him,” the source said.
Still, the source states that “it feels very tit-for-tat that days later she went out and made a big show of kissing Bradley in public in New York.”
She adds, “She wants to keep things as cordial as possible for Khai’s sake and is very happy with her new man, who also happens to be a big movie star.”
“But that’s Zayn, he’s always been very combative. She wishes he would get better, but that won’t happen,” the source added.
