This sad update from the American singer comes just a day after he broke silence over Liam's death, who left his friend, family and fans grieving earlier this week after falling off of a hotel balcony in Argentina.

Mourning the loss of his former bandmate, Zayn penned a emotional note for the late singer.

"I have found myself talking out loud to you, hoping you can hear me, I can't help but think selfishly that there was so many more conversations for us to have in our lives," he noted.

Zayn went on "I never got to thank you for supporting me through some of the most difficult times in my life. When I was missing home as a 17 yr old kid you would always be there with a positive outlook and reassuring smile and let me know you were my friend and that I was loved."

He continued, "there is no words that justify or explain how I feel right now other than beyond devastated."

"I hope that wherever you are right now you are good and are at peace and you know how loved you are," added the Just Wanna Keep Calling Your Name hitmaker.

It is pertinent to note, Liam Payne was not in contact with his One Direction bandmates Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Nial Horan, and Louis Tomilson.
