Baby Zigi has finally arrived! Gigi Hadid and Zayn welcomed their first baby girl together.
The model’s father Mohamed Hadid posted a touching handwritten letter to his granddaughter on Instagram Wednesday (Sept. 23). “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,” the poem read. “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.”
Zayn confirmed the good news. The former One Direction singer shared a post on social media. “Our baby girl is here, healthy & beautiful,” he wrote.
“To try put into words how I am feeling right now would be an impossible task. The love I feel for this tiny human is beyond my understanding. Grateful to know her, proud to call her mine, & thankful for the life we will have together.”
On Tuesday (Sept. 15), Hadid’s younger sister and fellow model Bella posted an older photo of them showing off their “buns in the oven,” which the younger Hadid clarified, “only except mine is from my burger and gigi’s is from @zayn. i love you both so freaking much -can’tstopcrying.”
