Supermodel Gigi Hadid is pregnant! TMZ learned yesterday that the model is expecting a baby with her on-again-off-again boyfriend, Zayn Malik. Multiple sources confirmed the happy news. It definitely seems like there is a baby boom happening!
Sources say that Gigi is about 20 weeks along already, so the couple has definitely been keeping their baby news quiet for a while. The Victoria's Secret model shared some adorable photos with Zayn, the former One Direction singer, over the weekend. The photos were from Gigi's 25th birthday party. She wrote on Instagram that she had the "sweetest day" celebrating with her "quarantine family."
This is definitely exciting news for the couple, who have a long history together. Sources say Gigi has always wanted a baby with Zayn. While we don't know the sex of the baby yet, fans are doing tons of speculating on that front, and apparently, there have been a few clues!
After a long back-and-forth, it seems like Gigi and Zayn are finally ready to settle down with one another. The couple has had a pretty tumultuous history, but the baby news is apparently very happy news. Sources say that it’s bringing the couple together.
On Tuesday, sources confirmed the happy news, telling Us Weekly that Gigi and Zayn are expecting their first child together. “Gigi is pregnant and she and Zayn are so in love," sources also told Us. "It’s clear that he and Gigi have such a strong connection and so much love for each other.” The news broke just as Gigi shared some adorable pictures from her 25th birthday party on Instagram.
The couple first began dating back in 2015. But they took some time apart over the years. They split in March of 2018 briefly before reconciling. Then they broke up again in January 2019. That breakup turned out to be fairly short-lived, too, but many were convinced it was the end of Gigi and Zayn.
That's probably because Gigi started dating Bachelorette alum Tyler Cameron. Tyler was fresh off Hannah Brown's season and a pretty hot commodity. The news of Gigi and Tyler's romance spread quickly, but it burned out just as fast. They dated for only about two months in 2019.
Perhaps it had something to do with the fact that Gigi still had feelings for Zayn. They got back together just after her and Tyler's relationship ended. An insider said at the time, “They got back together very recently." They added, "They have been trying to make it work for three months, but it has been slow and steady.”
Gigi was obviously feeling ready to settle down. She revealed just a few months ago that she definitely thinks about having a family. “I think that as I get older — well, one day I’ll start a family and I don’t know if I will always be modeling,” she admitted in February to i-D magazine.
Clearly, she was embracing her relationship and feeling a bit motherly! Just before her comments, it had been reported that Gigi and Zayn had gotten back together. Then Gigi confirmed the reunion. She posted a photo on one of her Instagram accounts calling Zayn her "valentine." Fans were excited that the couple was "Instagram official."
Gigi and Zayn each have a strong social media presence. But it seems like they don't often share news about their relationship on social media. Mostly, Gigi uses her accounts to promote her modeling work. Likewise, Zayn shares his musical ventures with fans.
It's possible the couple wanted to keep their relationship private. And that definitely makes sense given that there's been a lot of back and forth over the years. However, now that the two seem to be settled down and ready to welcome their new addition, we hope they share what's going on behind the scenes.
Their baby is bound to be adorable. I mean, a supermodel and a superstar singer with Zayn's great looks? That's going to be one super-cute baby. We can't wait to hear more baby updates, like if the little one is a boy or a girl! Fans definitely have their own ideas on that. Some thought Gigi's birthday party may have doubled as a gender reveal party. We'll just have to wait and see.
Congrats, Gigi and Zayn!
