Speaking out, the Steal My Girl crooner revealed, “I think for me, a lot of what I said just came from the wrong place.” He further added, “I was so angry at what was going on around me that instead of taking a look inward, I decided to take it outward at everybody else.”

Meanwhile, mentioning his disliking towards the Pillow Talk singer, the late musician shared, “If I had had to go through what [Zayn] went through with his growth and whatever else... My parents are overly supportive, to the point where it’s annoying at times. Zayn had a different upbringing in that sense.”
He went on to reveal, “You can always look at the man for where he is and say, ‘Oh yeah, whatever, that guy’s a d—k.’ But at the end of the day, once you’re understanding what he’s been through to get to that point — and also whether or not he wanted to be there.”
