Zayn Malik had postponed the beginning of his European tour to make sure he may very well be there to bid his pal farewell.
Malik and Payne hadn’t at all times had the closest friendship, however in paying tribute to Payne, Malik acknowledged his admiration for the singer.
“Though you had been youthful than me you had been at all times extra wise than me, you had been headstrong, opinionated, and gave no f–ks about telling folks after they had been unsuitable,” Malik wrote to his 53.3 million Instagram followers at some point after Payne’s dying.
“Though we butted heads due to this a couple of instances, I at all times secretly revered you for it.”
