Bella Hadid has paid tribute to her grandmother, Ans van den Henrik, on the one year anniversary of her passing.
Henrik died in August last year after battling cancer.
To mark the anniversary of her death, the supermodel shared a photo with her siblings Gigi and Anwar Hadid and her mother Yolanda Hadid at her funeral.
“One year… We miss you everyday Oma,” the 23-year-old said.
She also shared two more photographs – one from when she was young and one more recent image with her grandmother.
Meanwhile, Yolanda referred to the death of her mother as a loss “no one can heal”.
“The loss of my mamma one year ago left a heartache no one can heal, but her love that lives within me nobody can steal,” the mum-of-three said.
Upon the announcement of Henrik’s death at the age of 78 last year, Gigi made a statement praising her amazing grandmother revealing she had battled cancer six times throughout her life.
“OUR QUEEN ANGEL fought cancer six times in her life with courage, strength, and grace while being the greatest mother and grandmother,” the 25-year-old said at the time. “She is an honorable guide we will carry with us forever. We love you more than words, our beautiful wonderful Oma.”
While the anniversary of a loved one’s death can’t be easy, the Hadid family has a lot to look forward to with the imminent arrival of a new family member.
Gigi, who recently shared some stunning photographs from a maternity shoot, is reportedly days away from welcoming her first child with boyfriend Zayn Malik.
Ahead of the arrival of baby Hadid-Malik, the couple arrived in New York City which is where the supermodel intends to give birth, according to . This coincides with their arrival in the city that never sleeps last week where they were photographed by the paparazzi.
It’s fair to assume the pair will be staying in Gigi’s new $5.8 million (Dhs21.3 million) Manhattan apartment, which she gave fans a glimpse of last month.
According to a source close to Gigi and Zayn, the pregnancy has been good for their relationship after the couple reunited at the end of last year.
“Zayn and Gigi are really excited and have been loving this experience together,” the source told . “They both are reading parenting books, have had fun planning the nursery and picking out items together. Things are going really smoothly, and they are closer as a couple more than ever.”
