Gigi Hadid threw Zayn Malik the most incredible 90s arcade-themed bash for his 28th birthday on Tuesday - and she went that extra mile for his birthday cake!

Taking to her Instagram Stories a day later, the 25-year-old model proudly showed off the custom-made treat - made by Carlo's Bakery - centred on Zayn's favourite football team, Bradford FC.

Alongside the delicious masterpiece was a football ticket, which read: "Happy 28th Birthday Z! Love, G."

Doting girlfriend Gigi certainly pulled out all the stops for the special celebration and she also paid a heartfelt tribute to her beau, with whom she welcomed her first child back in September.

In other photos shared on her stories, the pair could be seen playing several of the machines, which had Pac-Man, The Simpsons and Mario and Mortal Kombat games on them.

The singer turned 28 on Tuesday

The party was low-key, with just several friends in attendance, including Zayn's hairstylist Ali Hernandez and Gigi's best friend Leah McCarthy, who were spotted wearing birthday hats featuring Zayn's face.

The couple are no doubt enjoying life as new parents. They confirmed their pregnancy news back in April after weeks of speculation. The stars first started dating after Zayn approached Gigi at a Victoria's Secret after-show party in New York in November 2015. They are yet to confirm the name of their little girl.
