Gigi Hadid had a fruitful spring, spending time with her little one.
On June 19, the model took to Instagram with a roundup of photos documenting what life has been like with her 4-year-old daughter, Khai.
Hadid, 30, kicked off the carousel with a photo of her and Khai enjoying a cloudy day at Central Park and bundled up in coats. Another snapshot showed Khai playing in a stream on an outdoorsy outing.

Hadid shared a glimpse at how she and her mini-me have been spending quality time at home, too.
In addition to a sweet picture showing the mother-daughter pair cuddling on the sofa, the Instagram post also featured Khai dressed up in tie-dye pants and rain boots while hanging out with what looked like small goats.
The Guest in Residence founder also revealed her fun parenting style with a photo she took of “Khai’s Breakfast Menu” that she made to feature hand-drawn doodles of Khai’s morning meal options (the gesture was so cute, it got a comment from Sara Foster, who wrote: “Khai’s breakfast menu for the win”).
Hadid captioned the carousel, “Thru spring.”

Gigi Hadid shares photo of menu she made for daughter Khai
Since Hadid welcomed Khai with ex Zayn Malik in September 2024, she’s treaded lightly around actually showing her kid’s face on social media. However, the runway star has been candid about how she’s been handling motherhood.
In a 2023 interview for WSJ Magazine‘s My Monday Morning series, Hadid revealed how her “very mom morning routine” consisted of waking up at the same time as her daughter and following Khai’s “lead” on what to eat for breakfast.

That same year, Hadid opened up to The Sunday Times about her special connection with Khai and parenting.
“I always wanted to be a mom, but I was never obsessive about it or [thought that] I was put on this Earth to be a mom.”
“I’ve always been quite organized, so having Khai at the time that I did was a blessing,” she said. “I’m so glad to be a young mom.”
This past April, Hadid offered insight on how she’s been co-parenting with Malik.
“Zayn and I do our custody schedules months in advance,” Hadid said in Vogue‘s April issue. “That doesn’t mean that it doesn’t change here and there, but we help each other out and have each other’s backs.”

Recently, Hadid has introduced someone special into her and Khai’s lives — Bradley Cooper.
She and the Maestro actor, 50, were first linked in October 2023, and since then, their relationship has blossomed to include their kids. Cooper shares 8-year-old daughter, Lea De Seine, with model Irina Shayk.
In May, a source told PEOPLE that Hadid and Cooper “have a lot in common and Bradley’s daughter, Lea, is so sweet and gentle with Khai.”
