Madame Tussauds has brought in a tissue assistant to deal with tearful One Direction fans visiting Zayn Malik’s waxwork.

1D fans have been breaking down at the site of the waxwork after Zayn left the band to become a “normal 22-year-old”.

The famous waxwork museum has also seen a rise in the number of visitors to see the figure, which still stands alongside the other members of the band.

Grace Cadden, who has been tasked with handing out the tissues, told Yahoo: “The One Direction figures are some of the most popular in the attraction, and they have been since they have arrived."

“Directioners that have visited since the news broke have enjoyed seeing all of the boys together and singing along with their songs – many have also been teary eyed, but we’ve had a delivery of 150 boxes of tissues over the weekend so we’re prepared.”

Despite Zayn’s departure from the band, Madame Tussauds has confirmed that his waxwork will remain in place next to Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson.
