Perrie Edwards is said to have moved on after her split with Zayn Malik. Last August, it was reported that the former One Direction member broke up with Edwards allegedly through text message, and now, the singer says that she's single and ready to mingle.
In a recent interview with E! News, the Little Mix singer joked about her dating life and said, "I am on Tinder. No, I'm joking," she said.
Lately, there have been rumors that she has been dating Joey Essex from "TOWIE," but Edwards told the website that she's not dating anyone right now.
When asked if she was on good terms with her ex, Edwards' band mate Leigh-Anne Pinnock said, "We don't want to talk about it!"
"We'd rather not talk about it right now," Edwards chimed in.
Since their breakup, there have been speculations that their split was caused by Malik's cheating. It can be recalled that earlier this year, the former boy band member was photographed with another woman in Thailand during the Asian leg of One Direction's tour. After the photos were released online, Malik left the tour and went home to England as it was believed that he wanted to have a serious talk with Edwards, and after a few days, he released a statement that he was leaving the band.
In another interview with You magazine (via Daily Mail), Edwards did not reveal the reason for their split, saying, "Everyone is going to talk, but nobody knows what went on behind closed doors and that's that way it is."
Though she is said to have moved on from their breakup, Edwards admitted that the days that followed after they called it quits were difficult for her.
"It was a hard time," she said. "But we're having so much fun as a band and I've got my three girls. I'm so thankful I've got this lot."
