Another insider said: “Zayn and Gigi did break up, but they can likely get back together tomorrow. It’s all very unclear what’s going on between them now.
“They been having some issues lately that involved communication and getting along.”
Another source said: “Gigi is really sad about this, though, and in a way would like to work it out.
“It’s more about that constant contact with Zayn that she misses and they did get very close.”
Shortly after they split, Zayn pulled out of performing at the Summertime Ball over "anxiety" issues.
Gigi immediately shared a message of support to him and said: "I've seen the battles you go through and the way you fight to get to a place that allows you to get up there for your fans.
"Your honesty last night proved what you're all about, being real....Love you and so proud of you always."
Zayn recently admitted he has curbed his partying ways and prefers to stay in and "Netflix and chill" with his other half.
He told Paper magazine: He said: "I've not been feeling too well recently because I've been partying too much and not looking after myself and eating enough food. I'm just trying to take care of myself.
"I don't really enjoy going out too much and partying.
"I like to have my own time and be at home, and I kind of need a partner with me to do that.
"I just like the security of that. It feels good to me. It feels right."
Speaking to , Zayn revealed he hasn’t fully acclimatised to his new world since soaring to world fame as part of One Direction and then as a solo artist.
He said: “I’m just staying the way that I am. I think that’s the best way to keep your sanity.
“You’ve got to hold on to what you are and not let things get to your head, because if you do, that’s when everything comes crashing down terribly.”
