Gigi Hadid spends some quality time with her little girl.
The supermodel, 25, shared a lovely photo of her cradle 6-month-old daughter Khai in her arms on Tuesday.
“the best 💓,” Hadid wrote the shot.
The mother of one, who welcomed Khai with boyfriend Zayn Malik, shook her freshly dyed red hair and added a few Zs above the baby’s head to show she was sleeping.
Hadid prevented her from showing her daughter’s face in pictures, an approach similar to the one she had followed during her pregnancy, when she only shared photos of her baby bump a month before Khai’s arrival.

In an interview with Vogue published last month, the model talked about why she and Malik, 28, made it a priority to protect their child’s privacy.
“I have friends who are public figures, and that’s how they did it, and I see their children really flourishing in a different way,” she said, referring to Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, who have three children together. .
Hadid’s sister, Bella Hadid, also told the publication: ‘I think she really wants to be online, but until her child wants to be in the spotlight and make the decision herself, she does not want to put herself in that position. “
However, this does not mean that Hadid is not willing to give fans a look at motherhood. In December, she announced that she was back at work two months after giving birth and wrote on her Instagram Stories: “would say 2 jobs back, but a mom is a job like no other.”
Recently, Hadid shared some photos never seen before from her pregnancy and postpartum life. Below the screenshots was a photo of Malik wearing Khai’s stroller and her daughter in a pink outfit.

Hadid reflected on Khai’s delivery Vogue interview that she had to “dig deep” during the home birth.
“There was definitely a point where I was, ‘I wonder what it would be like with an epidural, how it would be different,'” she recalls. “My midwife looked at me and was like, ‘You’re doing this. Nobody can help you. You’re past the point of the epidural condition anyway, so you’ll push exactly the same into a hospital bed.’ “
Hadid said that while she and Malik are about to become parents, they are not in a hurry to expand their family. “Then Z and I looked at each other and said, ‘We can have a while before we do this again! ” she added.
