Zayn Malik and One Direction seemed to split on amicable turns when he exited the band in March, but a recent Twitter feud between Malik and Louis Tomlinson would suggest otherwise.
It all started when record producer Naughty Boy posted a filtered photo of him and the 22-year-old Malik along with the caption, "Replace this."

About two hours later, Tomlinson came out of nowhere with a tweet making fun of the photo and the filter Naughty Boy used.
Remember when you were 12 and you used to think those Mac filters for your pictures were cool haha ! Some people still do HA! — Louis Tomlinson (@Louis_Tomlinson) May 6, 2015
Malik noticed the tweet and fired back at his former band mate directly.
@Louis_Tomlinson remember when you had a life and stopped making bitchy comments about mine ? — zaynmalik (@zaynmalik) May 6, 2015
The fight stopped there (for now), but Malik tried to defend his response when he started receiving backlash from his fans.
Don't know why I'm being attacked for defending myself , people got it twisted! I love my fans ?! Every single one of you x
