1D's Zayn Malik treats girlfriend 'like a princess'

Zayn Malik treats his girlfriend "like a princess".

The One Direction singer is dating girl band Little Mix star Perrie Edwards, and despite their busy schedules keeping them both apart for long periods of time, he goes to great lengths to display his love for her.

She said: "As long as we can talk as much as possible, we cope fine with being apart. The girls always say he's so good to me. I like to be treated like a princess and I love thoughtful gifts. When I was on holiday I got him a painting and filmed the artist making it. He loved it."

When they do spend time together the couple are happiest just to stay in at Zayn's new £2.2million house in north London, where they watch videos and do normal things together.

Perrie added: "We just chill out on the sofa. I'll wear the purple onesie Zayn bought me - he's got one too! I get quite homesick, so slobbing out watching a Disney movie reminds me of home."

But the blonde beauty is not about to set her bandmate, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, up with either of the two single members of One Direction, Niall Horan or Harry Styles, though, as she's not sure they could handle her.

Leigh-Anne added: "I definitely wouldn't be up for that. I think I'd be too much for them to handle, I'm a bit too mad."
