It's been a tough year for fans since Zayn Malik quit the band in March

The discovery has delighted fans still recovering from One Direction's announcement last month that they will be taking time off in 2016 

The man has already been christened Ziam by fans who were in awe of his designer stubble and sculpted physique.

With One Direction recently announcing their plans to take a break from 2016, this discovery was happy news for fans.

When Zayn left the band in March this year announcing his departure with a Facebook post, fans were dismayed.

A Twitter user called the discovery and said it will be the 'second reason' to end the world

Zayn posted: 'My life with One Direction has been more than I could ever have imagined.  

'I'd like to apologise to the fans if I've let anyone down, but I have to do what feels right in my heart. 

'I am leaving because I want to be a normal 22-year-old who is able to relax and have some private time out of the spotlight.'
