On September 19, Gigi Hadid joyfully celebrated her daughter Khai's fourth birthday, sharing an array of delightful moments from the festivities on social media. The supermodel, who shares Khai with singer Zayn Malik, gave fans a heartfelt glimpse into the celebrations, which featured an adorable Baby Yoda-themed cake that perfectly captured Khai’s interest.
In her heartfelt post, Gigi expressed her love for her daughter, writing, “Our girl is 4 today and we celebrated all week! She loves animals (fantastical ones too), music, baby Yoda, all things nature and bugs, descendants, anything squishy or miniature, and if possible—will be in the water from dawn till dusk. She is curious, adventurous, loving, and oh so witty.” She continued, "Khai, it is my life's greatest joy and pride to be your mama! Thank you for the four best years of my life—you remind me to live life to the fullest every day, in the most simple and beautiful ways. Your possibilities are endless, my sweetest love! Yoda best (sic).”
The series of pictures revealed the thoughtful details that went into the birthday party, from vibrant decorations to a carefully curated food menu that reflected Khai’s whimsical tastes. Gigi's affectionate tribute highlights not just the joy of motherhood, but also the bond they share as a family.
Zayn Malik also took to Instagram to mark the special occasion, sharing a touching photo with Khai and expressing his love in a heartfelt message. He wrote, “Happy birthday to the most important person in my life! I love you more than words allow me to express, beyond proud to call you my daughter. I’m grateful for every second I get to spend next to you, as you become the incredible person I know you already are. Four years ago today, my life changed forever, and I wouldn't be the man I am today without you (sic).”
Gigi and Zayn, who began their romance in 2015, have navigated a well-documented on-again, off-again relationship, ultimately welcoming their daughter Khai in September 2020. However, they officially parted ways in October 2021, but they remain committed to co-parenting their daughter and celebrating her milestones together. The warmth and love shared in their birthday tributes reflect their ongoing dedication to Khai's happiness and well-being.
