‘I love him’: You will NEVER guess who Selena is gushing about
Just last month it seemed romance could be blossoming for Selena Gomez and Niall Horan, but now it turns out she has her eyes on another 1D member. Well, a former 1D member to be exact.
Speaking on Manchester radio station Key 102 FM yesterday, Selena couldn't help but gush a little about Zayn Malik. "I love him, he's awesome," she said excitedly, adding that she would be there for him if he needed support.
"I know Zayn, so it's almost like if he would ever want to reach out, he knows that he could," Selena told the station.
And while Zayn's 1D departure has seen him burn quite a few bridges in the music industry, Selena reckons he's made a good choice by going it alone. "I think that's so exciting for him to go and figure out what he wants to do [in his solo career], but I don't know what that is. I think it'll be pretty exciting," she said.
Earlier this week the One Direction star raised a few eyebrows when he suddenly started following Selena on Twitter, making her his latest celeb social media prey. The follow came days after Zayn was caught slyly favouriting an old photo of Kylie Jenner… a rookie mistake, as any social media stalker knows.

Speaking about the unexpected addition to her 32m Twitter followers, Selena admitted she hadn't even noticed. "I had no idea what that was until somebody else asked me," she told BBC's Chris Stark and Scott Mills.
"Obviously I know Zayn, though, so it’s not like a weird thing. I just didn’t know who followed me,"
Justin better watch out all the same…
