As Gigi Hadid’s due date fast approaches, it appears her mother Yolanda Hadid couldn’t be more excited about becoming a grandmother for the first time.
The grandmother-to-be recently shared a sweet photo of herself hugging daughter Gigi’s baby bump stating she was patiently awaiting the impending arrival of the little one.
“Waiting patiently for her angel to be born……” the 56-year-old wrote.
Upon the announcement of Gigi’s pregnancy earlier this year, Yolanda told Dutch broadcaster RTL last week, saying she was “thrilled” about becoming a grandmother.
“I can’t wait to become a grandmother,” she told the outlet. “It is quite special, since I lost my own mother so recently.
“That is the beauty of life: one soul is leaving us and another is coming. We feel very blessed.”
Just days ago, fans were speculating that the 25-year-old model had already given birth due to a post her father, Mohamed Hadid made on Instagram.
The 72-year-old penned a sweet handwritten letter saying, “Hello my little grandchild.”
This had a few fans confused as to whether Gigi had welcomed her first child with boyfriend Zayn Malik, given that her due date is so close.
One person commented asking: “Did Gigi give birth to her baby, please can anyone answer.” However, to put speculation to rest, Mohamed responded saying, “No, not yet.”
However, the post by the Palestinian-American property tycoon has now been deleted for reasons unknown.
It’s expected that Gigi will give birth to her first child with Zayn in New York City. Late last month, the couple were photographed arriving in Manhattan.
It’s fair to assume the pair are 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 recent report from , the pregnancy has been good for Gigi and Zayn’s relationship after the couple reunited at the end of last year.
“Zayn and Gigi are really excited and have been loving this experience together,” a 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.”
It’s been reported the couple are expecting a girl, but neither of them has officially confirmed the gender.
