Ever since Zayn Malik posted a photo of him looking cosy with a new lady online a whopping three days ago, the world has been wondering just who in the hell that lucky girl is.

But after a bit of mistaken identity in the form of Teen Wolf star Gage Golightly, it’s now being reported that the mystery blonde Carlyn Bryan, a PR girl from LA.

HURRAH, it’s someone we’ve never heard of, who also happens to be very private on social media so we knowpractically nothing about them.

This is basically Briana Jungwirth part two.

While The Sun apparently got a ‘no comment’ response from Carlyn when asked about her potential romance with Zayn, a source for the newspaper has handily spilled some gossip on the pair.

They told the paper: “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 place over the past year but their bond has only progressed recently."

So what else do we know about this not-so-mysterious-girl? NOT A LOT, as it turns out. But she does live in LA and apparently works in PR, so expect some more abbreviations soon.
