Hadid initially confirmed the pregnancy during an appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon in April. The couple have been dating on and off since 2015.
He is the third member of One Direction to become a father. Louis Tomlinson first welcomed his son Freddie in January 2016, while Liam Payne has a three-year-old son, Bear, with singer Cheryl Tweedy.
