Gigi Hadid's daughter Khai just celebrated her birthday. Yolanda Hadid's only granddaughter is officially four years old. Gigi, who co-parents her daughter with ex Zayn Malik, took to her Instagram account this week where she posted a series of photos from Khai Malik's birthday party and her week of fun.
Gigi captured her daughter rowing in a clear canoe, smiling at her baby Yoda-themed birthday cake, adding sprinkles to her ice cream, participating in arts and crafts at her party, riding on a rainbow-colored pony, hanging out in nature, and eating rainbow-colored cake. While the photos don't show Gigi's daughter's face, you can feel the joy.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum and proud grandma, Yolanda, was able to get in on the action, helping guide Khai as she rode on a horse — one of her favorite pastimes.
Gigi Hadid & Zayn Malik's Tributes to Daughter Khai on Her Birthday
Gigi took to the caption of the post where she penned the sweetest tribute to her daughter on her birthday, which she celebrates on September 19. The tribute, of course, earned a heart emoji from Yolanda.
How old is Gigi Hadid's daughter?
"Our girl is four today and we celebrated all week!!!" Gigi wrote about her 4-year-old kid. "She loves animals (fantastical ones too), music, baby Yoda, all things nature & bugs, Descendants, anything squishy or miniature, and if possible - will be in the water from dawn til dusk. She is so curious, adventurous, loving, and oh so witty. Khai, it is my life's greatest joy and pride to be your mama!!!! Thank you for the best four 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."
Zayn also took to his Instagram account that same day where he posted a photo of himself and his daughter near the ocean and penned a message for the girl who he called "the most important person" in his life.
"I love you more than words allow me to express, beyond proud to call you my daughter.. grateful for every second I get to spend next to you, as you become the incredible person I know you already are," he wrote. "Four years ago today my life changed and I wouldn't be the man I am today without you."
How Yolanda Hadid is Spoiling Her Granddaughter, Khai
In addition to helping her ride horses on her Pennsylvania farm, Yolanda has a shelf in her pantry in her Texas home just for Khai and her favorite treats. During an Architectural Digest video tour of her Texas ranch, Yolanda showed off the clear jars filled with gummy bears and other candy at her house.
"Obviously, this is inspired by my granddaughter Khai when she comes, because she loves candy," she said in the video. "So I said, 'Oma will make a little section for you.'"
But she isn't spoiling Khai with just candy. Earlier this month, Yolanda took to Instagram, where she posted a series of photos taken throughout her summer, featuring her family. In the photos, Khai can be seen approaching a miniature horse, laying in Yolanda's lap at a restaurant, and getting her own mermaid tail fashioned out of sand.
"Summer 2024 has come and gone..." Yolanda wrote in the caption of the post.
