AT LAST we know who Zayn Malik’s mystery blonde is…

A few days ago the internet went into a bit of a tizzy, when Zayn Malik posted a steamy black and white picture of him and a 'mystery blonde'.

And while that would be a very cool name for any blonde woman, we finally know what her actual name is.

It was initially claimed by Zayn's legion of Insty fans that it was Gage Golightly reclining on his shoulder, but the Teen Wolf actress took to Instagram to clarify that it wasn't her cuddling topless Zayn, although she did admit that the 'mystery blonde' was a "very lucky girl".

SO WHO THE HECK IS IT?

Well, according to* The Sun* it could be Carlyn Bryan, a public relations girl from the US who has worked for CBS.

She declined to comment when asked about her relationship with Zayn. However, an inside source said: “It’s early days but a budding romance between the pair is on the cards. Despite Zayn posting a picture, Carlyn is trying to keep a very low profile and the relationship will be kept under wraps as long as possible.

“They’ve socialised in the same places over the past year but their bond has only progressed recently.”

Apparently Carlyn tweeted on 29 July (around the time Zayn split with Perrie) that: “The next stage has just begun.”

All of Carlyn's socials are now set to private, so there's not much to be gleaned from there, apart from a picture of her on the beach and some monkey eyes in her cover photo. Hmm, arty. It also looks like she doesn't follow Zayn, One Direction OR heatworld. What's up with that, Carlyn?

Meanwhile, over in Camp Perrie, she's reportedly very unimpressed with how heartless Zayn has been. A source told Hollywood Life: “Is she heartbroken over the pic? No, she’s disgusted.

“She wants to tell the girl, ‘You can have him!’ Perrie isn’t wasting any more tears on this guy.

“Plus, she thinks he’s just trying to make her jealous because he knows she has moved on. It’s just an attention-seeking, desperate, heartless ploy.”

Finger snaps * sassy head shake* Preach Perrie, PREACH!
