Former One Direction star Zayn Malik's father refused to grace his daughter's wedding as he reportedly has his fair share of concerns regarding the groom. The wedding venue was merely 70 yards away from the singer's family house, but Zayn's father, reportedly chose to give the nuptials a pass as the groom, Junaid Khan, was convicted for five years on the grounds of being discovered indulging in the act of car-jacking back in 2017 as per an article on The Daily Mail. A majority of the members of Zayn Malik's family had reportedly attended his sister Waliyha's wedding. The groom, as per the same article, was all of 24 years of age while Waliyha is 22, which makes her the second youngest of the Malik siblings.
