She’s so excited to be a mom and so happy to be pregnant and to be embarking on the journey of motherhood, especially with Zayn by her side.”

The following month, the pregnant star gushed about her mom Yolanda Hadid’s motherhood skills, writing via Instagram: “Best I could ever ask for. Happy Mother’s Day to the one I’ll do my best to emulate.”

When it came to her baby bump, Gigi said during a June Instagram Live video that she could create an “optical illusion” with certain camera angles and a “really baggy jumpsuit.”

She added at the time: “From the side, it’s a different story!”
