PSR feels sorry for One Direction’s Filipino fans, but your favorite boy band will not be complete when they perform at the Mall of Asia Arena this summer. One Direction singer Zany Malik decided not to join the famous pop band’s Asian tour due to “stress related reasons,” his publicist said on Thursday, after pictures were posted of the engaged Malik partying with a holidaymaker in Thailand.
Zayn has been signed off with stress and he’s flying back to the UK to recuperate. The band wish him well and will continue with their performances in Manila and Jakarta, said the statement issued by Malik’s London-based publicist Simon Jones.
Malik is engaged to Perrie Edwards of Little Mix, but he’s seen in photos posted on the Internet partying with a woman who has been identified as Lauren Rich.
The English-Irish One Direction came to prominence in the televised singing competition “The X Factor” in 2010 and has gone on to become one of the world’s top selling bands.
