"He needs his own comeback tour": Internet reacts as Zayn Malik attends BLACKPINK concert with his daughter with Gigi Hadid

Zayn Malik surprised fans by turning up at the recent BLACKPINK concert with his daughter, Khai Malik. Zayn shares Khai with his former partner, Gigi Hadid.

Malik and Hadid were in an on-and-off relationship for five years before they called it quits in October 2021, following an alleged altercation with the model’s mother, Yolanda, according to an Elle report in March 2025. Since then, the former couple has been co-parenting their baby daughter, born in September 2020.

Zayn Malik shared a picture of himself with his baby girl on his Instagram story from the BLACKPINK’s concert. The girl band's gig was a part of their ongoing Deadline World Tour. In the picture, Zayn is seen holding his daughter, and the caption reads:

“[tagged Blackpinkofficial] THANK YOU. ME & KHAI LOVED IT.”

Soon, the internet was flooded with posts from his fans, who could not get over his sweet gesture. One fan wrote on X,

“He needs his own comeback tour.”

Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid have raised their daughter as co-parents and away from the spotlight. She grew up in a rural farm in Pennsylvania. They are very protective when it comes to the privacy of their daughter. Although glimpses of Khai's life are visible on Instagram through various posts, but her face has never been revealed to the media so far.

Per InStyle, Hadid shared an Instagram story in 2021 where she wrote:

“You know we have never intentionally shared our daughters face on social media. Our wish is that she can choose how to share herself with the world when she comes of age, and that she can live as normal of a childhood as possible, without worrying about a public image that she has not chosen.”

Hadid further requested the press to blur her images:

"It would mean the world to us, as we take our daughter to see and explore NYC and the world, if you would PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE blur her face out of the images, if and when she is caught on camera... I know it's an extra effort — but as a new mum, I just want the best for my baby, as all parents do."
