Fans Think Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid Are Engaged After Hearing His New Song
Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik, who just welcomed their first child together in September 2020, clearly don't need a ring to solidify their bond—but some fans do see a wedding in their near future.
Thanks to a lyric in Malik's new song, “When Love’s Around,” which was released on January 14, many Zigi stans are convinced the pair are secretly engaged or about to be. “But I need you in my life. Yeah, you could be my wife for real,” he sings. “Only takes a woman to show you what it means to love.”
Though that's hardly an engagement announcement, a couple of Twitter users are taking it there. One asked, “I mean…IS HE PROPOSING THAT WAY?”

Ask Taylor Swift for proof. Following her own possible engagement ring sighting, fans went wild when she seemingly replaced some lyrics in her rerecording of “Love Story.”
When part of her new version of the song was released in a Ryan Reynolds commercial for Match.com back in December, Swifties were quick to point out that it sounded like Swift sang, “It's a love story; baby just said yes,” instead of, “It's a love story; baby, just say yes.” Not only that, but some believe they heard wedding bells added to the background of the song.

Pop stars are going to continue to release music inspired by their lives and emotions—and their fans are gonna speculate from there.
