Gigi Hadid just confirmed she’s pregnant, and her craving is so relatable
Update, May 1st, 2020, 9:20 a.m.: It’s official! Gigi Hadid confirmed she is pregnant with Zayn Malik‘s baby. After much speculation—and her mother, Yolanda Hadid, essentially confirming the news herself—the model opened up about her pregnancy, hormones, and cravings with Jimmy Fallon last night.
“Obviously, we wish we could have announced it on our own terms,” Hadid told Fallon on the virtual Tonight Show on April 30th. “We’re very excited and happy and grateful for everyone’s well wishes and support.”
Hadid also directly addressed her heavily speculated birthday party, noting that her bagel cake was an allusion to her pregnancy cravings.
“In the morning, my family brought out an everything bagel cake, which already blew my mind because my craving has been everything bagels,” she said. “I eat an everything bagel every day, so I was already so excited that my birthday cake was an everything bagel.”

This will be Hadid and Malik’s first child. Congratulations to them both!
Original story, April 30th, 2020: Speculation has been swirling that Gigi Hadid is pregnant. The first reports came out this week, just a few days after the model celebrated her 25th birthday with her “quarantine family.” Neither Hadid nor her Instagram-official boyfriend, Zayn Malik, have spoken out about a pregnancy. But now that her mother, Yolanda Hadid, seemed to confirm the news, Twitter has gone into full-fledged excitement mode.
Yolanda Hadid just went on record with Dutch TV program RTL Boulevard, sharing her excitement about her daughter’s “little secret.”
“Still shocked our little secret got leaked to the press. Of course, we are so excited. I’m excited to become Oma in September especially after I lost my mom so recently,” Yolanda said, according to a translation from Dutch. “But this is the beauty of life, one soul leaves us and a new one comes in. We feel very blessed.”
“Oma,” in Dutch means “Grandma.”
As for Gigi’s 25th birthday party with Malik? Fans think that it was much more than that. Eagle-eyed fans started speculating that the celebration was not only a birthday party (featuring that iconic everything bagel cake) but also a gender reveal party.

Hadid and Malik were first linked as a couple back in 2015 and according to ES Magazine, Malik says the two first met at a Victoria’s Secret party. We’ve been following their relationship ever since, from their Met Gala appearances, their joined Halloween costumes, and even their breakups. They’ve made it clear recently that they’re back together, and we wish them all the best.
