Zayn Malik has been dropped by his record label, RCA, amid fears that he has been smoking 'extremely strong' cannabis according to a new report.
This comes after it was revealed that the 28-year-old singer had split from model Gigi Hadid, 26, after denying claims that he had struck her mother Yolanda Hadid.
Now The Sun is reporting that Malik has been ditched by his US record label RCA following claims from those close to him saying that he has been increasingly smoking 'extremely strong' cannabis.
A senior music source told the publication on Thursday: 'A lot of people have tried desperately to get Zayn’s life and career back on track, but nothing has worked.

'So many people who have worked with him have just given up.
'He’s almost impossible to control or guide. A while ago his label quietly decided it was the end of the line for their relationship, and now this.'
Zayn has often spoken openly about smoking marijuana, previously revealing that he thinks it can help him when it comes to his 'creative process' as a musician.
This comes after it was revealed that Malik had pleaded no contest to four counts of harassment after allegedly pushing his partner's mother, Yolanda Hadid, into a dresser and calling her a 'f*****g Dutch sl*t' last month in a fight at the home he shares with Gigi in Pennsylvania.
The details emerged in court documents obtained by DailyMail.com on Friday. They reveal that he was charged with four counts of harassment, that he pleaded no contest and that he must ow complete 360 days probation in addition to completing an anger management class.

The British singer must also have no contact with Yolanda, his daughter's grandmother, or with John McMahon, a security guard for the Hadid family who witnessed the incident and who he also harassed.
The documents confirm previous source claims that there was a fight in the couple's home near New Hope, Pennsylvania, which emerged on Thursday alongside the news that Zayn and supermodel Gigi had split. It remains unclear if they broke up before the fight, or as a result of it.
The couple share a one-year-old daughter, Khai, and lived in a farmhouse in Pennsylvania, near Yolanda's home.
On September 29, Yolanda went to the couple's property while Gigi was modeling in Paris. Zayn was there, though it's unclear if Khai was. What transpired next is unclear but the pair started arguing and Zayn 'grabbed Yolanda' and 'shoved' her into a dresser.
He also verbally berated her, screaming: 'Stay away from [my] f*****g daughter and calling her a 'f*****g Dutch s**t'.

The incident on September 29 was when Gigi was modeling in Paris. Zayn's relationship with Yolanda was already strained, according to sources, because he suspected her of leaking news of Gigi's pregnancy to the media last year. After allegedly pushing Yolanda into the dresser and screaming at her and a security guard, Zayn is said to have called Gigi in Paris and screamed at her to 'strap on some f*****g balls'.

A security guard was present for the exchange, according to the court documents, and Zayn screamed at him: 'Get the f*** out of my f***ing house copper.'
At another point he referred to fathering Khai with the 'f*****g sperm that came out of my f*****g c**k'.
Gigi has refused to comment in detail on the matter but released a statement on Thursday night.

Zayn posted a statement on social media on Thursday that confirmed there was an incident, that he pleaded no contest (although it was unclear at the time that he'd been criminally charged) and that he was trying to protect his daughter.
He denied striking Yolanda, as had been reported by TMZ, citing an unnamed source.
'As you all know I am a private person and I very much want to create a safe and private space for my daughter to grow up in.
'A place where private family matters aren't thrown on the world stage for all to poke and pick apart.
'In an effort to protect that space for her, I agreed to not contest claims arising from an argument I had with a family member of my partner's who entered our home while my partner was away several weeks ago.
