Not quitting One Direction: Zayn Malik

One Direction member Zayn Malik has dismissed reports suggesting that he is planning to quit the boy band. Recent reports said that Malik was considering to leave the group but a representative for the band has now come out with a denial on behalf of him, reported Aceshowbiz. "It's completely untrue, Zayn isn't leaving the band," a statement from the representative read. Malik was recently embroiled in another controversy when reports surfaced that he cheated on his 19-year-old girlfriend Perrie Edwards, a member of the British pop group Little Mix, with an Australian waitress/stripper named Courtney Webb. Malik has since denied the cheating rumors, even enlisting the help of his band mates in what seems to be a public apology or expression of loyalty last week, which Edwards accepted. After that stressful episode, the 20-year-old purposely wanted to take a break from the band, to de-stress and spend more time with his girlfriend.
