Former One Direction star Zayn Malik has seemingly confirmed one of the more bizarre rumours that's swirled around singing superstar Taylor Swift in recent years.
Before the release of her most recent album, Reputation, last year, Swift took a lengthy break from the public eye, somehow even managing to evade paparazzi as she made the record.
As days turned into months without a single Swift sighting, some fans began to ask: Where was the singer? And how was she managing to dodge being noticed in public?
In July 2017, images surfaced showing two hulking bodyguards carrying a large suitcase out of Swift's New York apartment. Whatever was in there, it appeared to be quite heavy. The picture first surfaced on photo website Splash News, who captioned it thusly: "Taylor Swift being transported in a huge suitcase from her Tribeca apartment into her truck, in the trunk."
