Singer Zayn Malik has opened up about reconciling with the remaining One Direction members and also his desire to get a degree in a personal new interview. 

Speaking to today's issue of the Sunday Times Culture magazine, the heartthrob admitted that he wouldn't rule out a 1D reunion, but he would definitely wait until the idea was pitched to him rather than suggest it himself:

"Who knows? I don't know. If the time was right and that was the thing to do, then I would make that decision when it came around."

He went onto admit that a return to education might be on the cards in the future: "You know what, to educate yourself isn't that hard these days. You can do it at home. You can go to lectures – just sit there, which hopefully, at some point, I can do – like, just sit and listen to a lecture."

"And when my kids ask me, in the future, and I try to tell them to go to school, they can't turn around and say to me, 'F*** off, Dad, you were in a band!' I can turn around and say, 'Excuse me, I went back to school and got my degree. So you definitely have to do your schoolwork!'"
