Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik are celebrating the birth of their daughter! The proud parents took to Instagram this week to show their fans how they celebrated Khai’s birthday.
“Have been celebrating our THREE YR OLD this week 🌞🌈⚡️🌻 & just so honored to get to be her mama, to get to see life through her !!!! Happy Birthday to my sweetest, smartest, spunkiest bestie !!!!!!!! 💓 DREAM KID / love of my life🦄🦄🦄,” Hadid wrote.
Hadid’s post opened with a photo of Khai’s birthday brunch, which included candles in waffles and a slice of rainbow cake. The model’s post was followed by a photo of Khai’s Frozen and fall-themed cake from Carlo’s Bakery.
Giving the world a glimpse of her and Khai’s bond – but not her face – Hadid shared photos of herself snuggling close to a newborn Khai, playing in the sun, and lying in the sand from their beach vacation. The Next in Fashion host also posted a photo of Khai painting her toes in preparation for Milan Fashion Week.
Hadid shared a cute summer photo dump including her daughter last month, and in January, the model discussed her life as a mom and her morning ritual with her daughter, which includes pancakes every morning.
“Whatever time she’s waking up, I’m waking up,” Hadid told WSJ. “I have a mommy morning routine.” “Every day, I make her pancakes and sausages,” she said of her toddler’s favourite meal.
Aside from breakfast, Hadid also shared another routine she and her baby girl have. “Running after my 2-year-old,” she said of her exercise routine. “We walk a lot. We do yoga together. With lifting her and running around all day and going to the park, I get moving.”
Besides that, Zayn Malik took to his Instagram to send a special message to his daughter.
“Happy birthday to my everything, you are the most amazing soul I’ve ever known. Every day I get with you is a blessing that I cherish beyond words. 3 already!! Where has that time gone? my beautiful little girl, I couldn’t live without you, thank you for all the love you bring to my life. ♥️,” the “PillowTalk” singer wrote.
Malik’s post includes photos of him holding his daughter up while she blew out the candles on her cake, of them playing with a toy, and of a Skittles-themed cake.
According to a source, despite Hadid and Malik’s relationship ending in 2021, they are in “a much healthier spot,” as evidenced by Hadid’s modest support on Malik’s recent Instagram photo in July.
“Zayn and Gigi are both focused on co-parenting together,” according to the insider. “Their relationship is in a much better place than it was previously. They are both determined to provide their newborn child the most stable and normal upbringing and life possible.”
