Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid split has been rocking in the rumor mill in spite of their picture-perfect relationship. Recently, the former One Direction singer got a tattoo but many are confused what the ink stands for.

Zayn Malik shared a photo of his tattoo in Instagram with the letters "SGT." Is it for Gigi Hadid or for his new song? Underneath the letters, a set of numbers "2 4 17" was written according to Mirror. The letters could be an acronym for his new song "Still Got Time" which is in collaboration with Party Next Door.

However, fans are confused what the number stands for. The numeric tattoo "2 4 17" could mean April 2, 2017, for the Europeans, or Feb 4, 2017, for the Americans. Zayn Malik has shared the image on Instagram on April 2 so the former could be a more logical explanation. But what is the significance of these dates to him and Gigi Hadid?

In the past, Zayn Malik also had a tattoo etched on his arm dedicated to former girlfriend Perrie Edwards. When they broke up, the singer had the ink covered up. This time the singer's latest tattoo could "SGT," or "Still Got Time" maybe, could be a tribute to Gigi Hadid.

Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid split news could be far from the truth. Daily Mail reports that the couple is sweet as ever sharing private little nicknames for one another. "I call her Gee, she calls me Zee. There are some other nicknames too, but I'll keep those private," Malik said.

Zayn Malik has already introduced girlfriend Gigi Hadid to his family. However, he has not yet brought her to his home town of Bradford, England. "I've never taken her to my hometown Bradford, not yet. She has met my family in London a few times, though," the 24-year-old singer revealed.
