Posted March 19, 201510 yr ONE DIRECTION star Zayn Malik has flown home from the band’s world tour after being signed off through stress. The singer, 22, pulled out of a planned Coca-Cola commercial shoot in Hong Kong today in order to return to the UK to spend time with his family. His departure from the Far East, where the band are currently on tour, was sparked by pictures of him posing alongside a partygoer outside a nightclub in Phuket on Tuesday night. A source said: “Zayn finds it tougher than the rest of his band-mates dealing with fame. “Having his every movement scrutinised causes great anxiety and the pictures which surfaced with the fan yesterday was the final straw. C“He did nothing wrong but the amount of criticism he received was simply too much. He needs to get away. “The band’s management accept he needs some time off so he’s been sent home with their blessing.” Zayn will miss three of the band’s remaining Fast East gigs but hopes to return for their concert in Cape Town on March 28. The star angrily responded to claims he cheated on the Little Mix star in a Tweet sent late yesterday evening but acknowledged the snap didn’t look good. He wrote: “I’m 22 years old… I love a girl named Perrie Edwards. And there’s a lot of jealous ******* in this world. I’m sorry for what it looks like.” The boyband star met up with Lauren Richardson, 19, in Seduction nightclub where British artist Example was performing a DJ set. Snaps of the pair from inside the club appeared on social media, as well as images of Lauren following the 1D star out of the building and standing together outside, where they appear to be holding hands. Too big a deal to be left in general chatter I feel. Is the end nigh for One Direction as we know it?

March 19, 201510 yr I honestly feel awful for him. Obviously he's going to attract an incredible amount of attention because he's in the biggest band on the planet at the moment, but the amount of criticism he receives, I'm honestly surprised it's taken this long for him to take time out because of stress! From the weed scrutiny last year, to this where he's actually had to stop going on tour with four of his best friends... That must be extremely devastating. And the funny thing is, it'll be One Direction fans aged 14 and of the female variety making him feel this way. It really wouldn't surprise me if he decides to break away sooner rather than later, and at this stage, I wouldn't blame him.
March 19, 201510 yr Author What I am going to do now without tumblr updates of pictures of him from the tour. I'M GONNA HAVE TO BE A LIAM GIRL :manson:

March 20, 201510 yr I feel for him. There's been multiple rumours regarding him cheating on Perrie and when you look at the x factor auditions he really struggled and panicked. I do think Zayn will leave One Direction soon. He's most likely earned himself enough money and it explains why One Direction have been recording solo music recently also. I think they'll release another single / take a break following their tour.
March 20, 201510 yr We'll know soon enough if he decides to leave when 'FOUR: The Ultimate, Ultimate Edition' arrives *.*
March 20, 201510 yr Author Not sure to be honest. I don't have much experience of my favourite bands having members leave.
