Zayn Malik News: Former ‘One Direction’ Member and “Pillowtalk’ Singer Reveals Eating Disorder, Anxiety Issues In New Book, ‘Zayn’

Around November 2014, just months before he would announce that he will be leaving the widely-popular band "One Direction," Zayn Malik sparked rumors for his stick-like appearance in some shows and guestings. Concerned fans speculated about the heartthrob's health condition while others judged that Zayn might be suffering from drug addiction. Now, the 23-year old, Zayn Malik explained his side and revealed all with the release of his personal memoir, "Zayn."

One of the things that Zayn Malik disclosed in the book, "Zayn" is about a low period in his life when he had to deal with an eating disorder and anxiety issues. Apparently, all that happened while Zayn was still a member of the UK band, "One Direction." In an article that appeared in Time, Zayn Malik explained why he chose to bare it all.

Moreover, a UPI post reported that Zayn's anxiety and anorexia are the reason why the young singer had to cancel performances such as the "Summertime Ball" at Wembley Stadium in London. Zayn Malik said he is not ashamed to admit the issues he had to face and wanted to be honest with his fans. The British performer though doesn't expect everyone to understand his revelation and knows that hate and bashing might follow.
