Zayn Malik was reportedly dropped from his record label amid his breakup from Gigi Hadid and the alleged harassment towards her mother, Yolanda.
Music label RCA dropped the ex-One Direction member and claims their reasoning was due to his excessive use of marijuana and they fear he might have been smoking a stronger strain. In a report by Radar Online, a source close to Malik said he is allegedly struggling with his inner demons and has been depending on drugs to deal with his anxiety and fame.
“Zayn has had personal demons for some time. Substance abuse — specifically marijuana and cocaine — and booze. At the same time, he suffers from anxiety and struggled with fame. When all these are mixed together, it is a recipe for disaster. He is known to have acted out, constantly – and is erratic. A lot of people have tried desperately to get Zayn’s life and career back on track, but nothing has worked.”

However, RCA reportedly wanted to make the decision for a while before the situation involved Yolanda Hadid. Currently, he was charged with four charges of harassment and fined plus ordered 90 days probation. He is also required to complete a domestic violence program and an anger management course.
