Simon Cowell Knew Zayn Malik Would Leave One Direction
Zayn Malik gets mobbed while leaving a hotel and getting into a car on Friday (November 13) in New York City.
The 22-year-old singer’s One Direction departure was predicted by manager Simon Cowell.
“I knew Zayn was going before it happened,” Simon said (via Us Weekly). “He was unhappy. My concern was actually for the boys. Zayn wasn’t in a great place but it was his decision to leave, he wasn’t kicked out. He wanted to distance himself. My responsibility was to the boys because they had no warning.”
