The real estate developer, whose kids include Gigi and Bella Hadid, posted the sweet sentiment on Instagram.
Mohamed Hadid finished out 2024 with a very sweet message for his five kids.
The real estate developer, who was married to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Yolanda Hadid from 1994 to 2000, took to his Instagram feed on December 30 to wish a Happy New Year to his children.
"Happiest New year to my kids," he wrote alongside throwback photos. Mohamed shares Gigi Hadid, Bella Hadid, and Anwar Hadid with Yolanda, and he welcomed daughters Marielle Hadid and Alana Hadid with his first wife, Mary Butler (who he divorced in 1992).
After listing out his kids' names, Mohamed concluded, "You make me proud every single day. Baba."
Mohamed previously opened up about his pride for his children in a 2020 interview with The Times.
"People don’t look at me as Mohamed Hadid. They look at me as the father of Gigi and Bella and Anwar and Alana and Marielle," he told the outlet.
He said that his kids' rise to fame led to a shift in their dynamic (Anwar, Gigi, and Bella are models, while Alana and Marielle are public figures as well).
"It’s dangerous for me to be their father. I have to be very careful. Everything I do is a reflection of them,” he continued. "Just being their father is a tremendous burden on me. They were my kids. Now I’m their father. It is what it is."

"Happiest birthday to the amazing mother and guiding light to our children," he wrote in the caption of the post. "Beautiful inside and out. Health and joy. Love and respect. Mohamed Hadid."
Bella took to her Instagram feed as well to thank her mom for being her "peace."
"With all that goes on, you are my peace. I love you mommy," she shared alongside her post, which featured photos of the two together from over the years. "Thank you for being you and all that you are. A guiding light, a loving heart, and a generous soul. I feel so blessed God chose me to be your baby."
