Zayn Malik's made his share of headlines lately. The 22-year-old One Direction member was recently photographed in Thailand getting snug with a gal who isn't his also-famous fiancee and since then, Malik's taken a break to recuperate from their current world tour, citing "stress."

Today's headline? Malik now wants to quit one of the most successful boy bands of this decade. 

According to gossip rag Daily Star, Zayn's legal team is seeking a way out for their client: “There is a strong chance he will have to fulfil his commitments and he might change his mind once he’s had time away from the spotlight. But as it stands, he’s not keen to continue.”
