Reportedly, Gigi’s father Mohamed Hadid allowed the news to slip when he posted (and then deleted) on Instagram last week, “Hello little grandchild, it is me, my heart as happy as can be. I wish for you the sun & moon, I wish for you a happy time,” he wrote. “Know that Grandpa’s always near, I’ll do anything, anything for you my dear. When I heard you were on the way, I smiled and wiped a tear away. I cried the tear because I knew, my heart would always belong to you. Mohamed Hadid.”
Gigi and Zayn have spent quarantine together, alongside her parents and younger sister, on the Hadid family farm outside of New Hope, Pennsylvania.
