Just one week after news broke that former One Direction star Zayn Malik and American model Gigi Hadid are expecting their first child together, fans are now speculating that the loved-up couple are engaged!

Of course, the pair haven't made a massive announcement about Zayn popping the question, but eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice one of the 'Pillowtalk' singer's new tattoos, which features a poem most commonly read out at weddings.

Celebrity jeweler George Khalife shared a snap of Zayn's arm to his Instagram Page, after he sent the dad-to-be some fancy new bracelets, but it was the tattoo that really caught the eyes of fans.

The poem, which is titled 'On Marriage', was written by Kahlil Gibran and is usually read out at weddings, leaving fans to believe Zayn and Gigi might be engaged.

It reads, 'Sing and dance together and be joyous but let each one of you be alone.

'Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. Stand together, yet not too near together; For the pillars of the temple stand apart. And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.'

After seeing the post, fans were quick to speculate on Twitter, one user wrote, 'zayn and gigi are either engaged or already married'. (sic)

Another wrote, 'feel like zayn and gigi are secretly engaged already', with a third writing, 'Zayn and Gigi are in the most beautiful phase of their relationship, expecting a baby together, it wouldn't be a surprise if they are already engaged or married. I feel very happy to see the two most passionate yet'. (sic)

News broke last week that Gigi was pregnant with Zayn's baby, just one day after she celebrated her 25th birthday in isolation with Zayn and her sister Bella Hadid.

Following initial reports from TMZ, Gigi later confirmed the lovely news during an interview with Jimmy Fallon, she said, "Obviously, we wished we could have announced it on our own terms but we're very excited and happy and grateful for everyone's well wishes and support.

"Especially during this time. It's a nice silver lining to be able to be home and be together and really experience it day by day."
