Zayn Malik reportedly snubbed group shots with other One Direction members at the ARIAs. This is now fueling bets and reports that the boy band may split up before the year ends.

Fans who want to catch a glimpse of the 1D boys at the Aria Music Awards in Sydney were beyond thrilled when the members posed for selfies with fans. Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Liam Payne were all game to do so but Zayn is said to be noticeably stressed and distracted, Daily Star reports.

Despite their big awards on both the ARIAs 2014 and AMAs 2014, a flurry of bets are already being placed that the currently hottest boy band would split up, as shown in Bettingpro.com. Daily Star UK reports that William Hill just reduced the odds on the band to split up before the end of next year. They are now offering 2/1, which is a cut from 5/1.

According to a spokesperson of the betting company, "They may still be picking up awards galore but it seems that all is not right behind the scenes for 1D." The spokesperson added that even though Simon Cowell, who grouped the boys together back in 2010, would do everything to keep the band together, fans may see a "conscious uncoupling in the near future."

Fans took to Twitter to say they do not want the group to split up. There are also those who believe that splitting up is a sure thing, especially if Zayn leaves. Some also thinks Zayn should leave and give them a R&B album.

After Zayn's suprisingly weird appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel show, wherein he was not at all attentive during the interview and refused to give more than one-phrase answers, many believe that Zayn may decide to up and leave the group. Their manager deciding to leave the group for good makes fans think that ultimately, One Direction would really disband. According to the Sunday People (via OK UK), a source even came forward to say that the seemingly-troubled 21-year old band member is already eager to just give up his fame and settle down with Perrie Edwards, his fiancée. "Zayn appreciates how lucky he is, but life is about family for him and he is seeing too little of his loved ones," the source revealed.
