TikTok user @celebritea.blinds, known for uploading blind items on the platform, recently made claims about Malik and his health struggles. The user alleged that the singer was hospitalised due to extreme substance abuse and not because of any health issue.
Malik has been open about his struggles with drugs and alcohol in the past. Years ago, reports swirled that Malik had been caught smoking marijuana while touring with One Direction. The singer has also spoken honestly about his mental health struggles and revealed that he has anxiety and depression.
Malik has not confirmed substance abuse as the reason for his hospitalisation, and no independent source has corroborated the TikTok claim.
Other than Malik's history with substance use and his mental health, the TikTok uploader also alleged that he is dealing with a custody battle over his daughter, Khai, with his ex-girlfriend, Gigi Hadid. The uploader claimed that Hadid wants full custody of their child because Malik has been spiralling.
Throughout the years, Malik and Hadid maintained a co-parenting relationship, even though the singer has not always been on good terms with Yolanda Hadid. However, the uploader alleged that something changed between the exes that led Hadid to seek full custody of their child. This claim has not been confirmed by either party.
Fans of Malik expressed their concerns for the singer, and some urged him to seek professional help. Others pointed out thatfans already lost Liam Payne, so the last thing they want is to lose Malik to substance abuse.
However, some fans are also questioning the credibility of theclaims made against Malik. Since the uploader was discussing a blind item, nothing has been independently confirmed.
