Zayn Malik's mother was reduced to tears after hearing that her son had bought her a new house. In a new trailer for One Direction's new movie This Is Us the boyband member reveals that he spent hundreds of thousands of pounds buying a new house for his mother and his sisters in their hometown of Bradford.
In the touching scenes, mum Trisha and two of Zayn's three sisters are seen picking up the keys and visiting the mansion for the first time. Trisha breaks down in tears as she sees their new home. She is filmed calling Zayn from the property. "I know that you always used to say, 'I'll get you a house one day when I'm older,'" she said. "But thank you for what you've done for us. I'm so proud of you." A choked-up Zayn replies, "Well, get off the phone then before I start crying."
Zayn and his bandmates Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne rose to fame after appearing on the UK edition of the X Factor. They are now enjoying worldwide success and are even embarking on a worldwide tour. For the moment, they are busy with their Take Me Home tour. Announced by Liam at the 2012 Brit Awards, the original concert tour was billed as the UK & Ireland Arena Tour, but in mid-2012 it expanded to include North America and Australasia due to the band's international breakthrough.
While they're enjoying worldwide success, their families are still close to their hearts. Last year, it was reported that Harry had also splashed out on a new house for his mum as a special thank you present to mark her birthday. The heartthrob is said to have purchased a four-bedroom property with a large garden close to their current family home in Holmes Chapel in Cheshire. Harry also walked his mum up the aisle at her wedding last month.
