Talking about Zayn he said, "There's many many reasons why I dislike Zayn and there's many reasons why I'll always always be on his side. If I had had to go through what he went through his growth and whatever else... my parents are overly supportive to the point where it's annoying at times, and Zayn had a different upbringing in that sense."

He added, "You can always look at the man for where he is and say 'oh yeah, whatever, that guy's a d***,' but at the end of the day once you understand what he's been through to get to the point, and whether or not if he actually even wanted to be there..."
