The model and her singer boyfriend were first linked in 2015. Although Malik confirmed in 2018 that they'd split, they remained on good terms, and the musician even told GQ magazine that June, "We're still really good friends, and we're still in contact." This past January, TMZ reported that they'd reconciled, and Hadid said in April that they were quarantined together amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Especially during this time, it's a nice silver lining to be able to be home and together and really experience [the pregnancy] day by day," Hadid told Jimmy Fallon at the time.
