Zayn Malik has reportedly been sending naughty texts and pictures to Lily Allen -- and sources say the married mother of two is "flattered" by the attention. Um, gross!

The 22-year-old former One Direction singer "is hoping to start a romance," according to The Sun, and a source told the paper, “Zayn fancies Lily and has made that very clear. He has even sent her X-rated pics and raunchy texts which Lily has told quite a few people in her close circle about."

The two first met in 2013 on a plane, and the British tabloid claims that Lily, 30, made a joke about the mile high club at the time. The following year the two reunited while rehearsing for the Brit Awards.

While we wouldn't normally believe something like this, rumor has it Lily’s marriage to Sam Cooper is on the rocks, and the Mirror reports that Allen apparently was caught on dating apps Raya and Tinder. However, Allen's rep insists all is well with Cooper. "There's no change, she and Sam are very much married."
