It was announced on Wednesday, March 25th that Malik decided to leave One Direction. In his official statement he explained the reason why he decided to part ways with the band saying he wanted to be “a normal 22 year old who is able to relax and have some private time out of the spotlight.”

In an interview conducted on Thursday by The Sun, according to E! News, Malik said that he was feeling “quite interesting” since the news broke. As for future plans after One Direction, Malik said he wants to “be myself for a bit” and plans to “write and relax and chill.”
