GiGi took to Instagram a couple of weeks after her big night to reflect on the celebrations and her milestone birthday.
She shared a 'photo dump' of photos, including with her daughter Khai, whom she shares with former One Direction singer, Zayn Malik.
Other pics in the post included posing with her celebrity friends at her party, including sister Bella Hadid, mom Yolanda Hadid, model Emily Ratajkowski and actress Zoe Kravitz.
But one of the final pics in the 20-photo post was one of GiGi kissing Bradley in front of her multi-tiered birthday cake.
GiGi captioned the post: "I feel so lucky to be 30! I feel so lucky for every high and low- for all the lessons and gifts both have brought me.
"To get to feel it all! I'm so lucky to be a mom, friend, partner, sister, daughter, colleague to some of the most unbelievable humans!!"
She added: "So lucky for the support and encouragement from all of YOU around the world, every day and on my birthday last week.
"I had the best time celebrating, and it's a blessing to feel so loved!! I am grateful and honored to take on a new decade x x G"
GiGi and Bradley were first linked in October 2023 when spotted on a cosy dinner together in NYC and on following nights out in the coming months.
One first big public hint of their relationship came when Bradley wore a sweater from Hadid's Guest in Residence clothing label while on a walk in New York.

In April of that year, they enjoyed a couples' getaway with GiGi's BFF, Taylor Swift and her NFL boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
Earlier this year, they coordinated their outfits at a NFL game in January to support Bradley's beloved, Philadelphia Eagles.
GiGi also supported Bradley the following month when they watched the Eagles win the Super Bowl.
Bradley was previously in a relationship with supermodel Irina Shayak, and they share eight-year-old daughter, Lea De Seine.

The Life of Chuck review – unmoving Stephen King schmaltz
As prestigious as it might sound to win the Palme d'Or at Cannes or the Golden Lion at Venice, the surest indicator of Oscar recognition has become victory at the far less fancy, far more mainstream Toronto film festival. There isn't a jury-based award, instead there's one decided by an audience vote and, far more often than not, their picks have lined up with those of the Academy. Since 2008, only one People's Choice award winner hasn't then gone on to either take home or be nominated for the best picture Oscar, and while the picks haven't always been the greatest (hello, Jojo Rabbit, Belfast and Three Billboards), they've indicated a broad, crowd-rousing appeal. Last year, despite predictions that Anora or Conclave might triumph, out of nowhere the far less buzzy, and, at that point, distribution-less Stephen King adaptation The Life of Chuck triumphed, a win that preceded a deal with awards-securing outfit Neon and, now, a confidently positioned early summer release. Such a victory, combined with a sense-assaulting marketing campaign highlighting words like 'life-affirming', 'profound', 'celebration' and 'magical', would have you believe that something rather special is about to burrow its way into your heart, a feeling of wonder set to overwhelm (one quote claims it to be 'It's a Wonderful Life for today'). But try as writer-director Mike Flanagan might, there's something coldly unmoving about it all, a disjointed and dry-eyed tearjerker that never rises above Instagram caption philosophy. Flanagan has become the unofficial adapter-in-chief of King's work, having made three films while working on two TV shows based on his writing (the pair have both expressed deep admiration for the other on multiple occasions). It tracks given Flanagan's interest in both scares and sentiment (his non-King shows like The Haunting of Hill House have balanced them well) although there's yet to be a real slam-dunk among them. Like many of the more faithful adaptations, both Gerald's Game and Doctor Sleep have their share of effective moments (the latter boasting a particularly terrifying turn from Rebecca Ferguson) but they get dragged down having to untangle King's often baffling explanations, fumbling overly convoluted plots that might have worked better on the page (Flanagan's best film remains his stripped-back King-less debut, the barnstorming home invasion thriller Hush). The Life of Chuck has the unmistakeable feeling of back-of-drawer King, familiar ideas given a quick, yet incomplete, dust-off for a late-stage novella (it's one of three stories from the 2020 collection If It Bleeds, the last adaptation being Mr Harrigan's Phone, a similarly reheated misfire). It's a trio of tales, all centered around Chuck, played as an adult by Tom Hiddleston, who initially appears on a strange billboard seen by Chiwetel Ejiofor's confused teacher (Ejiofor gives one of the film's few standout performances). In the first, most effective, section, the world is crashing to a halt with natural disasters forcing people to examine their lives and lost loves, hoping to find a hand to hold as everything fades to black. Tributes to Chuck haunt them, as if his death somehow means more than theirs, from posters to TV commercials to his face inside their windows. In the middle section we get to actually meet him, as an everyman accountant, life narrated by Nick Offerman in one of the film's more annoyingly mannered touches. He engages in a rather mortifying dance sequence before we go back for the final act, encountering him as a child. It's a film about life and death and love and family and dreams but only ever in the most simplistic of fridge magnet ways (it could have been called The Live Laugh Love of Chuck), urging and insisting us to feel something without ever giving us enough for any of it to sink in. The tease of the storytelling, hinting at a great, earth-shattering reveal, masks a rather empty space at its centre, and when details of the 'twist' arrive, if one could even call it that given how messy the plotting gets, it turns a feelgood film into an odd and, from one viewpoint, sinister tale of narcissism and revenge (a thriller using similar components could have been far more entertaining). The big problem is that we never really get to know or understand Chuck; we're mostly just told about him via voiceover (he contains multitudes, allegedly!) and we're expected to figure him, and the meaning of life, out from faux-profound sermons about math and the cosmos. Hiddleston has very little to do but dance and we spend more time with Benjamin Pajak as a younger Chuck, who does an effective job at charming us through well-trodden coming-of-age scenes. Flanagan elsewhere relies a little too heavily on his go-to troupe of actors (Mark Hamill, wife Kate Siegel, Samantha Sloyan), which leads to some distracting miscasts. I'm not really sure what to take from The Life of Chuck, a solidly directed yet stilted, stop-start piece of film-making that reveres a lesser, little-known work of King but doesn't really explain to us why. The final scene, intended to hit us with a cascade of emotion, is abrupt and unsatisfying, frustration overriding any impulse to cry (the end-of-days melancholy of the first section is close to piercing through the most) and we're left feeling empty. Life is full of meaning but The Life of Chuck struggles to find any. The Life of Chuck is out in US cinemas on 6 June, Australian cinemas on 21 August and in the UK on 22 August

Jury deliberations begin in Harvey Weinstein's sex crimes retrial
The seven-woman, five-man jury is considering two counts of criminal sex act and one count of rape, each relating to a different accuser and a different date. In this case, the criminal sex act charge is the higher-degree felony. Weinstein, 73, has pleaded not guilty. Nearly eight years ago, a series of sexual misconduct allegations against the Oscar-winning movie producer propelled the #MeToo movement. Some of those accusations later generated criminal charges and convictions in New York and California. The New York conviction from 2020 was subsequently overturned, leading to the retrial before a new jury and a different judge. Jurors heard more than five weeks of testimony, including lengthy and sometimes fiery questioning of Weinstein's three accusers in the case. Jessica Mann said he raped her in 2013, when she was trying to build an acting career. Miriam Haley accused him of forcibly performing oral sex on her in 2006, when she was looking for work in entertainment production. Kaja Sokola, who was not involved in Weinstein's first trial, told jurors that he forced oral sex on her, too, during 2006. At the time, she was a teenage fashion model trying to break into acting. 'They all had dreams of pursuing careers in the defendant's world, the entertainment industry,' prosecutor Nicole Blumberg told jurors in her closing argument on Tuesday. She contended that Weinstein let the women think he was interested in their careers when what actually interested him were their bodies, and 'he was going to have their bodies and touch their bodies whether they wanted him to or not'. Weinstein chose not to testify. His defence called other witnesses, including some former friends of Ms Sokola's and Ms Mann's. Weinstein's attorneys argued that all three accusers consented to Weinstein's advances because they wanted help with their Hollywood aims. All three stayed on friendly terms with him afterwards, a point the defence emphasised. 'It's transactional, folks. Yes, he wants to fool around with them, and yes, they want something from him,' defence lawyer Arthur Aidala said in his summation on Tuesday.

Ex-England international wants more female role models in sport
Telford, from County Durham, achieved 27 caps in an England shirt and appeared in three FA Cup finals with Leeds United, Chelsea and Notts County. She lacked visible representation during her youth but since taking on her post-playing role working at Chelsea Women as a Commercial Manager, she can see new opportunities for young girls. 'I basically didn't have any female role models until I was a lot older,' she said. 'If I was asked that question as a youngster, I would have said David Beckham or David Ginola. 'I was in a school last week, and we were doing the trophy tour for the FA Cup. I sat down next to a group of girls, and I said, 'Oh, who are your role models?' and they said Sam Kerr, Millie Bright, Lauren James and that is just so normal for them. 'To see them writing their names down, wishing them good luck, it's just so inspiring for them to be like, I see myself in her, or I want to be like her one day.' A study by Sure in 2024 found that 58% of girls say that having a female role model strengthens their passion for football. Telford, who was part of a panel discussing the issue at Stamford Bridge this week, has been able to become the role model for others that she never had, spending eight years at WSL heavyweights Chelsea during her career. 'It's mad. I sometimes forget it, until someone's like, 'Can you sign my T-shirt? Can you sign my boot?','' she said. 'It's almost like a responsibility as well in the best kind of way. I didn't want to be a footballer for any other reason, I just loved it. I genuinely do. If you ask most of the girls who play the game, it's all for the love of it. 'The responsibility that comes with that is to always turn up as who you are, because there's always going to be a young girl, a group of girls that will be like, 'Oh, I sound like her, I look like her, I play the position she does.' 'Not all of us have a smooth journey. Just because when you get to the top, it looks like it's all great, and Instagram and TikTok can make it look all fun, actually it's a difficult role. 'There's a lot of rejection, sometimes confidence is low, you're not selected. There's a lot of things that you have to deal with but that also helps you prepare for life outside.' For Telford, that authenticity is key in allowing girls to connect with players and create role models who speak to wider aspects of life beyond elite football. 'Role models should allow girls to aspire to be Lionesses and want to be the best of the best, but also empower them to feel confident, to feel like they can do it, and that gives them life skills in the longer term as well,' she added. Visibility plays a vital role in inspiring young girls in sports, but it alone isn't enough. Increased visibility needs to be paired with real world grassroots investment – like Sure's Breaking Limits Programme – find out more here
