The Hadid family centers on real-estate developer Mohamed Hadid and his former wife, the Dutch-born model and television personality Yolanda Hadid. Their three children — Gigi, Bella, and Anwar — each became fashion models, turning a single household into one of the most recognizable names on the modern runway. Mohamed and Yolanda married in 1994 and divorced in 2000, but the family they built has remained a tightly linked public unit.
What makes the Hadids genealogically interesting is how the modeling line threads through a blended structure. Before marrying Yolanda, Mohamed was married to Mary Butler, with whom he has two elder daughters, Marielle and Alana Hadid. Alana in particular has stayed a visible part of her half-siblings' orbit, so the family tree branches into two marriages that converge on a shared surname and a shared industry. Yolanda, for her part, was later married to Canadian music producer David Foster from 2011 to 2017, adding another well-known figure to the extended household.
The family's third generation has already begun. Gigi Hadid and British singer Zayn Malik have a daughter, Khai, born in 2020 — a granddaughter who ties the Hadid line to the world of pop music through her father. Bella and Anwar have likewise built careers in modeling and fashion, so the sibling set functions almost as a collective brand, frequently photographed and interviewed as a group.
As a family system, the Hadids are a study in how talent and visibility can concentrate in one sibling generation. Three children of the same parents rising to the top tier of an image-driven industry at the same time is genealogically rare, and the genogram makes the clustering visible: a single marriage at the center, older half-sisters on one side, and a small third generation just beginning on the other.
