Malik, 24, took to Instagram to pour his heart out to his baby mama, after leaving her and his young son for a woman twice his age.

He shared a throwback photo that showed his family after his son was born.

Malik wrote:

“I [want to] say sorry for putting you in the situation you were put in the last few months.. my head wasn’t [where] it was supposed to be.. I was looking for more when it was right here that whole time.”

He added:

“I’m telling the world and you that there’s no body like you for me.. for the record I was the one who ended my last relationship off the fact that there is no one like you.”
