Zayn Malik Is On A Break From One Direction — But Sources Say The Fame & Attention May Ultimately Drive Him Away From The Group!

3/20/2015 3:12 PM ET | Filed under: Icky Icky Poo • One Direction • GIFs • Zayn Malik

There has been a lot of drama surrounding Zayn Malik,

and it seems to have all stemmed from some questionable photos of the boybander and a mystery gal in Thailand. Sorry, Zerrie Shippers…

The situation got so bad, the One Direction cutie abruptly left their ongoing

tour for a couple of resting days — which obviously caused a frenzy among Directioners!

But if any 1D fans are experiencing terrible thoughts about the singer having issues with his bandmates, fear not!

An insider close to the group says people shouldn\'t read too much into Zayn\'s break from the limelight:

"But Zayn is a very artistic person. He\'s passionate and sensitive. And he can be quite shy. Being on tour can be hard. And being under the spotlight can be difficult. When you are on the road it can be hard to turn it off. He is very close to his mom. It\'s good that he is able to take a breather. Ultimately he is a really lovely guy. I wouldn\'t read too much into this."

The 22-year-old has struggled a lot with the attention that came from being in the band.

Although it\'s been five years since they all shot to super stardom, that doesn\'t make it any easier.

"He is just a kid. He wants to make music, but the spotlight that comes with it is hard. Fame is kind of catching up with all if them. It\'s been a grueling and intense few years and it\'s having a snowball effect now. Zayn would be happy with a low-key life. He has a problem with the fame—he doesn\'t handle the attention very well, and every so often he has a little wobble."

Guess the multiple months the 1D crooner had off wasn\'t enough for him — it totally makes sense though! The guys have been working nonstop ever since they left

So, while fans have nothing to worry about for now, the source said after the tour ends is another story.

They said Zayn will probably think if he:

We did predict this like, three years ago, but we\'ll all definitely have to sit around and twiddle our thumbs to see if it comes true.

Until then, here are all the times the bright lights and attention haven\'t agreed with the singer…

Six years after he brutally beat Rihanna, Chris Brown is off the hook -- legally, at least.

A judge lifted the 25-year-old\'s probation on Friday, and closed the assault case stemming from the 2009 pre-Grammy attack on his then-girlfriend.

Chris had his probation revoked as recently as January of this year, when he left Los Angeles without permission to perform at a show in Northern California.

The decision came on the heels of a glowing report from Chris\' probation officer, who, after a previous stern recommendation from the probation department that the singer serve jail time, stated that he had fulfilled his community service.

We\'d like to remind you all that their previous recommendation was for Chris to go to jail!

So, not only is he NOT going to jail, he\'s currently OFF probation and OUT of the legal system? That\'s a pretty drastic change, right?
