They’re taking over Croke Park this week but Zayn Malik first took some time out to meet One Direction’s oldest fan.
The 21-year-old headed to South Shields to visit his girlfriend Perrie Edwards’ great-grandmother 99-year-old Jenny Gasston for a cup of tea and a slice of cake. Apparently the meeting went well, as Jenny told The Daily Mail that the boyband star was “absolutely lovely”.
“It’s the first time I’ve met him and I was thrilled we could meet. He was very nice,” she said.
“We had a nice cup of tea and some sponge cake and he could also see Perrie which was nice…. Meeting him for the first time went very well. It was a pleasure to meet him.”
