Selena Gomez spotted with Zayn Malik’s personal assistant amid dating rumours
The Calm Down singer and former One Direction icon Zayn, both 30, sent the rumour mill into overdrive this week as it was claimed they were seen looking cozy at a restaurant together.
Both are currently believed to be single, with Zayn’s six-year relationship with model Gigi Hadid coming to an end in 2021, and Selena publicly calling for peace from fans towards Hailey Bieber, who is married to her ex Justin Bieber.
Neither have commented on the claims by a TikTok user and another source that Selena and Zayn were seen kissing at a New York City restaurant, however the former Disney star has now been seen with Zayn’s assistant Taryn Zimmerman.
As reported by the Mail Online, Selena and Taryn were photographed walking together in the Big Apple outside popular Japanese restaurant Nobu.
Beauty Selena looked cool and casual in an all-black outfit, including a denim jacket, platform boots and a scarf, and wore her long locks tied up.
Taryn, meanwhile, looked ace in a knee-length cream coat and her hair in matching braids, with an Adidas purse slung over her shoulder.
Zayn and his assistant are close, having been pictured hanging out together multiple times in the past; Selena was reportedly seen with her days before claims emerged that she and Zayn had been seen kissing.
Selena herself has previously hung out with Taryn over the years, having been pictured together in 2014.
The romance speculation first emerged this week when it was reported, first by a TikTok user and then from a source to Entertainment Tonight, that Selena and Zayn were seen kissing in a restaurant.
A source told ET: ‘Selena and Zayn went out in SoHo in New York City last night at around 10:30 pm. They walked in holding hands and were kissing.
‘Most restaurant staff and restaurant-goers didn’t notice them. It seemed like they were comfortable together and it was clear that it was a date.’
It comes after Zayn’s ex Gigi is said to be ‘fine’ with it if Selena and Zayn are dating, with a source telling Us Weekly she has ‘no problem whatsoever with Zayn dating.’
The pair share a two-year-old daughter, Khai, together, and the source went on to say that Gigi is ‘fine with whoever he goes out with’ as long as he is ‘happy and stable and continues to be a good coparent to Khai.’
