Hadid, 25, posted a back and white photo and message on Instagram introducing her daughter to the world. She wrote: “Our girl joined us earth-side this weekend and she’s already changed our world. So in love.”
The photo she shared showed the baby clutching Malik’s thumb while lying on a bed, with the singer’s tattooed arm in the background. The British singer, from Bradford, has been dating US supermodel Hadid on and off since 2015.

A post shared by Gigi Hadid (@gigihadid) on
Hadid confirmed she was pregnant with Malik’s child on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in April 2020.
“Obviously, we wished we could have announced it on our own terms,” she said.
“But we’re very excited and happy and grateful for everyone’s well wishes and support.” Being pregnant during a pandemic provided its own challenges, but the supermodel took it all in stride.
Fans first began speculating that Gigi welcomed her baby after her younger sister, Bella, 23, posted an emotional message dedicated to her sibling’s “bun in the oven.”
Alongside a photo of her and her sister, Bella wrote, “june 11, 2020 …🖤 two buns in the oven except mine is from my burger and gigi’s is from @zayn ✨👼🏼✨” — before adding of Hadid and boyfriend Malik: “i love you both so freaking much – can’tstopcrying 🥺.”
Gigi’s father Mohamed also led fans to believe Gigi’s baby had arrived when he posted a heartfelt poem to his grandchild on Instagram Wednesday afternoon.
“I wish for you the sun & moon, I wish for you a happy time. Know that grandpa’s always here, I’ll do anything, anything for you, my dear,” he wrote.
The couple met on the set of Malik’s music video for the song Pillowtalk.
They have since appeared together on the August 2017 cover of Vogue and also did a Versus Versace campaign as a couple, with the supermodel as the photographer.
