Kendall Jenner has no boyfriend, but it seems it won't be too long before she does. Reports have it that the 19-year-old reality TV star felt "mortified" after she was pushed by her mother Kris Jenner to former One Direction member Zayn Malik.
The former boyfriend of Perrie Edwards was even rumored to be flirting with Kylie on Twitter after he instantly liked her photo. He also followed her sister Khloe Kardashian.
Kris, 59, invited the 22-year-old heartthrob to Kylie's recent 18th birthday party. Malik, 22, attended Kylie's 18th birthday bash even if he didn't know anyone there, Mirror reports.
"Kendall is actually quite shy and was mortified at her mum being so obvious but eventually she relaxed and was talking to Zayn, just the two of them. Khloe and some friends joined them and clearly Zayn was feeling more confident so he put his arm around her. She looked very surprised at first, but she relaxed and put both her arms around his waist."
Kendall and Zayn exchanged their numbers with Kris' permission, according to Yahoo. She even reportedly allowed Zayn an "arms-around-waist-gate" to Kendall. Right after the party, the momager reportedly consistently reminded her model daughter to keep in touch with the 22-year-old singer while she's in Mexico.
Zayn was not the first guy that Kris approved of dating her daughter Kendall. In fact, she was also the one responsible behind Harry Styles dating Kendall. After a while, she also tried to set up Kendall with Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton. However, things have gone a different route as the ace driver has been rumored to be dating Rihanna.
Zayn Malik recently split up with his fiancée Little Mix singer Perrie Edwards. Apart from Kendall, he is also romantically linked to CBB's Chloe Goodman and Zendaya Coleman.
It seems the Kardashian matriarch is afraid that her 19-year-old daughter will be left alone since she, along with Kourtney who broke up with Scott Disick, are the only ones in the Kardashian-Jenner clan who are single right now. Was Kris playing matchmaker for Kendall and Zayn? What can you say about her setting up the two?
