One Direction’s Zayn Malik spotted with blonde babe in Phuket

Maybe sticking to one direction simply isn’t enough.

After finishing his Bangkok show Saturday, One Direction’s Zayn Malik, who is very much engaged to another Britpopper, was spotted cuddling and holding hands with a blonde girl during a night out in Phuket on Tuesday.

Malik, the British Bieber, was spotted with a woman identified as Lauren Rich, who posted a photo with his arm wrapped around her belly.

“Partying with Zayn from One Direction last night #Thailand #1D #best #night #patong #phuket,” the caption read.

Social media was bombarded with photos of Lauren holding hands with Zayn, who is engaged to Perrie Edwards, member of girl group The Little Mix.

But how could anyone expect a 22-year-old superstar to enjoy a night out in Phuket without some girls?

Zayne commented on the rumor via Twitter this morning, simply apologizing for “what it looks like.”

Hopefully this didn’t wound the sensibilities of all the tweens who went to see their concert over the weekend. Sorry, girls.
