There were a few rumours over the weekend that Zayn Malik had proposed to his girlfriend Perrie Edwards, but now they have been officially confirmed.
According to the Daily Mail, Edwards mother confirmed that the pair are tying the knot. Perrie’s excited mother told the Dorset Echo newspaper: ‘It’s official. I’m over the moon. They are really in love.’
The Mail confirmed that her mother was already aware of the news, but the couple decided not to make an announcement that would overshadow Malik’s big night; the One Direction stars took to the red carpet in London on Tuesday night for the premiere of their new film, This is Us.
Edward’s mother continued: ‘It’s wonderful because Zayn is absolutely gorgeous. It’s true they got engaged on Sunday and it’s absolutely lovely.’
‘Perrie loves him to pieces and it’s perfect. They get on so well together and understand each other. It’s just fabulous.’
A representative for the pair also confirmed the news: ‘Zayn and Perrie are engaged, but any further detail regarding their relationship is private.’
A source told the Sun newspaper: ‘Zayn got down on one knee and presented Perrie with the ring. She couldn’t believe it. It’s a shock to everyone.’
However, Perrie certainly wasn’t shy about showing off the sparkler on the red carpet!
