Former One Direction singer Zayn Malik and model Gigi Hadid shocked the world of showbiz last night when they announced they'd decided to end their two-year romance.

Despite a number of recent engagement rumours, the pair decided to each release a statement confirming the split, with Gigi admitting she still has 'immense respect and love' for the 'Pillowtalk' singer.

The Tommy Hilfiger model wrote, 'Breakup statements often seem impersonal because there is really no way to put into words what two people experience together over a few years, not only in the relationship, but in life in general. I'm forever grateful for the love, time, and life lessons that Z and I shared. I want nothing but the best for him and will continue to support him as a friend that I have immense respect and love for. As for the future whatever's meant to be will always be. xG.' sic

Zayn also wrote, 'Gigi and I had an incredibly meaningful, loving and fun relationship and I have a huge amount of respect and adoration for Gigi as a woman and a friend. She has such an incredible soul. I'm grateful to all our fans for respecting this difficult decision and our privacy at this time, we wish this news could have come from us first. We love you all xZ.' sic

Not long after his shock statement, it seems Zayn was keen to show his fans his mood and proceeded to post a number of selfies looking extremely glum.

Not captioning any of his new snaps, Zayn shared a colourful selfie, before later uploading a black and white snap of his sad face.

Many fans of the singer were quick to comment on his photos in an attempt to cheer him up. One user wrote, 'We love you, Z.', with another adding, 'I love you my world🌎❤️''.

A user with the name sumy_v then wrote, 'Have you been crying babe? I can tell. Me too!'. sic

Despite Zayn's miserable looking photos, it seems Gigi wanted to take a different approach to the break-up, posting a photo of herself looking very happy.

Dressed head-to-toe in Tommy Hilfiger, Gigi posted the snap as she attended a New York Rangers ice hockey game. Not making any reference to the break-up, Gigi captioned the shot with , 'rangerstown'.

The pair's break-up has come as an almighty shock to fans of the couple, as they seemed to be very loved up on social media.

Back in January, Gigi gushed about Zayn on her Instagram page to celebrate his birthday. Sharing a video of the pair, Gigi wrote, 'Love this man more than I could ever put into words, & am inspired by his drive to be and do better everyday ✨ cheers to YOUR YEAR my @zayn - happiest happiest birthday & 25th year of life !! I'm proud to be by your side x.' sic

And of course, who can forget THAT tattoo Zayn recently debuted of Gigi's eye at the beginning of the year?!

As Gigi uploaded a playful video to her Instagram account, a tattoo of the model's eye could visibly be seen on Zayn's chest, sending fans of the pair into meltdown.

After Zayn was forced to cover up his inking of his ex-girlfriend Perrie Edwards last year, fans of the singer were a little worried at his choice in design, and it looks like they were right...

But it might not all be bad news for the couple! Rewind back to June 2016 and the pair briefly split up, but it didn't take long for them to rekindle their love.

So let's hope they can work things out! ❤️
