Yolanda Hadid defends sharing photo of Gigi Hadid's daughter after fans blast her for 'inappropriate' post
The Dutch 61-year-old included an image of her daughter Gigi Hadid 's four-year-old daughter Khai Malik wearing a popsicle-patterned floaty around her red short-sleeve, ruffled bathing suit while playing on a beach with her heavily-tattooed uncle.
'This is really inappropriate,' Instagram user @mery_ben_ blasted.
'A child's privacy should always be respected posting such a photo is not okay. Please think about how this might affect her in the future.'
Yolanda replied in the comments: 'Please go and harass somebody else's feed, you are not welcome here!'
Hadid (born van den Herik) included a second shot of little Khai - whose name translates to 'crown' in Arabic - also from behind to protect her anonymity, enjoying a ring-side view of a rodeo with her uncle.
The 30-year-old IMG Model welcomed the child during her on/off six-year romance with singer Zayn Malik, which ended after his 2021 altercation with the Holland's Next Top Model judge, for which he received 360-day probation and was ordered to complete anger management and domestic violence programs.
'There is the hard part of the world knowing this much, and thinking they know everything,' Gigi (born Jelena) lamented to Vogue last March.
'And at the end of the day, we're not interested in giving everyone our whole story. What we are interested in is raising our daughter together. With so much respect for each other, and not just as co-parents, but what we've been through together.'
Last Wednesday, the Guest in Residence founder shared an Instagram snap of Khai eagerly digging into a frosted mini-cupcake during a summer break celebration that also included two cookie 'cakes.'
Fans might recall how much Yolanda pressured her daughter to only eat a tiny bite of the large cake at her own graduation party during a 2014 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
But now as executive chef 'Mama' - Gigi prepares Khai's breakfast menu with a choice of beverages and food options including pancakes, bacon, sausage, toast, Nutella French toast roll-ups, bagel with cream cheese, bread with 'Holland' cheese, and Overnight Oats.
Instagram user @thesarcasticbrunette commented: 'The fact that Gigi's mum wouldn't even let her daughter have some cake to her feeding her own daughter whatever she wants is so wholesome!'
Hadid welcomed Anwar, Gigi, and her 28-year-old daughter Bella Hadid during her six-year marriage to real estate mogul Mohamed Hadid, which ended in 2000.

'Happy birthday to you my son,' the self-described 'Oma' - who boasts 3.6M Instagram followers - gushed on Sunday.
'You are my greatest joy and most precious gift. I love watching you do life your way and I am so very proud to call you my son. Cheers to another journey around the sun my love, may your days be blessed with love, health, and happiness. Please know that you are and always will be the best part of my story.'
Yolanda reportedly ended her romance with contractor Joseph Jingoli last January following three years of engagement and six years of dating.
'They remain friends and have nothing but fond memories of their time together,' a source told People on June 5.
It was Hadid's first public romance since finalizing her divorce from 16-time Grammy-winning producer David Foster in 2017 following four years of wedded bliss.
Before becoming a Bravo-lebrity, she first found fame working as a Ford Model for an impressive 15 years.

The 8 hottest gym co-ords to workout in now
T here was a time, before paparazzi shots of Kendall Jenner striding out of her favourite Pilates studio (Forma Pilates in Beverly Hills, for those who care) and Instagram snaps of green-juice-wielding influencers were ten a penny, when the matter of what to wear to work out felt like a moot point. Certainly in fashion terms we spent little — if any — time thinking about it. If our leggings were comfortable, we were happy, if our sports bra held us gently but firmly, we were delighted. These days we are harder to please. With Pilates reformers and weights areas now serving as a catwalk of sorts, the matter of what to wear to do a single-leg hip bridge or power through a renegade row or ten is of paramount importance. The answer, this summer, is a matchy-matchy co-ord. Certainly, gym-ready twin sets à la Jenner, Hailey Bieber et al have become as essential as the emotional support water bottle.

If only Britain was as nice as Americans make it look
There is a very long tradition of American television getting Britain wrong. One of my favourite abominations is the 1972 Columbo episode Dagger Of The Mind, in which – I kid you not – the scruffy but infallible LA detective is posted to London to learn from the policing techniques of Scotland Yard. He soon stumbles upon a murder mystery centring around a West End production of Macbeth. The episode was mostly filmed on location in grey and grimy London, but then the action shifts to the country seat of the deceased Sir Roger Haversham, which has the unmistakable air of Beverly Hills – glorious sunshine and abundant orange blossom, one of those instant architectural wonders of Tudor England dropped on Hollywood in the early 20th century. Every character Columbo meets in London is either very posh, or very common. On American TV, Britons fall into only these two categories. You're either Lord Ponsington-Smythe, or 'Iggins from 'ammersmith. Fifty-three years after Dagger Of The Mind, My Oxford Year – a new film on Netflix – very much continues this depiction of Britons. It sees hotshot American student Ana de la Vega (Sofia Carson) arriving on our shores to fulfil her big dream of studying English Literature at the University of Oxford. She has barely had time to turn around under the dreaming spires before she falls for fellow student and tutor Jamie Davenport (Corey Mylchreest). There is more than a mere morsel of Meghan Markle to the character of Anna – given to tweeness, simpering, wooed by a posh chap against various grand backdrops. But despite being filmed in Oxford, the Oxford depicted in My Oxford Year is a curious place indeed. My mother's family came from there, so I've seen a lot of the place over the years. It doesn't match the version here, which is oddly clean, and with university buildings conveniently devoid of tourists. At one point, Anna visits a chip shop, which is staffed by a proper 'cor guvnor strike a light and Bob's your uncle' Cockney; unlikely enough in London, let alone the Shires. Meanwhile anyone who has seen recent Oxford Union debates on YouTube will be surprised at the lack of blue hair and swivelling eyes among Anna's fellow students. Lip service is paid in passing to wokeness – a straight white male student (boo, hiss, etc) makes a pass at Anna, who is of Colombian descent, and calls her 'Miss diversity quota' – but this is a production that has no interest in the grim or awkward aspects of university life. My Oxford Year comes hot on the heels of Lena Dunham's insufferably clichéd Too Much, which is likewise packed full of American misconceptions about Britons. The first episode's good one-line-and-out joke about confusing the concepts of an English country estate with a council estate is dragged out to terrifying lengths throughout the entire series. My personal favourite American Britain appears in the indescribable 1978 film Sextette. This tells the story of a sex bomb superstar played by Mae West, who at the time was 85 years old. She checks into a swanky 'London' hotel with her sixth husband, Sir Michael Barrington (Timothy Dalton) and becomes involved in a diplomatic crisis. To my knowledge, it is the only disco-musical sex comedy that centres around everybody lusting for an octogenarian. The taxi cab delivering West and Dalton passes through cheering crowds – second unit material filmed in London. Then it arrives at the hotel, at one side of a wide, wide boulevard where all the cars are driving on the right-hand side of the road. The sheer glamour of the occasion causes a city gent to wave his brolly and bowler hat in the air and cry 'Hooray for Hollywood!', as they do. Can we blame the Americans for getting Britain wrong? The strangest thing for a Briton visiting America for the first time is the eerie familiarity of the place; we are so steeped in American movies and TV that the surface, at least, of American life is second nature to us. They don't have anything like that going back the other way; in fact, we have a habit of reflecting their version of Britain back to them through our own media (Downton Abbey, Richard Curtis films) which provide Americans with a slightly wonky portrait of Britain. Only rarely do we try to recreate America here. There was an episode of Howard's Way that was supposedly set partly in New York. This was achieved using incredibly tight shots next to a skyscraper in what I'm fairly sure was Southampton, plus a passing yellow taxi and a wailing siren sound effect. And who can forget the United Nations Plaza in Superman IV, which is very, very obviously Milton Keynes? In this century, America's increasing cultural dominance has flattened out many of the cultural differences between us, and our national identity is seen by some as provincial, embarrassing or even shameful. So there is something refreshing about My Oxford Year, which, despite its gaffes, actually loves Britain, in the clumsy way that only a foreigner can.

Bella Hadid stuns at launch party for her fragrance with her family
was a vision at the launch party for her new fragrance Orebella Eternal Roots in California on Wednesday. The model, 28, was joined by her parents, Yolanda and Mohamed, as well as her celebrity friends at the dreamy event. For the occasion, Bella wowed in a cream halter-neck dress featuring a daring chest cutout, a dropped waist, and a thigh-high slit. She paired the backless ensemble with white cowboy boots and accessorized with gold jewelry. Meanwhile, Yolanda, 61, looked effortlessly chic in a blue shirt dress and clear heels shielding her eyes with stylish sunglasses. Mohamed, 76, who was joined by his partner Keni Silva, kept it sharp in a blue shirt and white jeans. Also in attendance were Bella's brother Anwar, and pals Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner. It comes just days after the entrepreneur released Eternal Roots, 'a multi-layered woody fruity fragrance' with lychee, raspberry, and pink sugar notes. According to the company's description, the fragrance 'evolves into an earthy base of vetiver, papyrus, and birch smoke for a harmonious blend of sweetness and depth'. Bella used social media to personally introduce the latest product and tell her 61 million followers about her 'process'. In a lengthy, heartfelt note, the Vogue cover girl shared, 'Our newest gem…. my newest baby- she's here! She's thriving - we love her- could cry - already have!' Giving out thanks, she added, 'Thank you to everyone for giving me the opportunity to live my dream not just in business, but in creativity. 'You keep us moving as a brand, and you keep me moving in my heart & soul. I'm so grateful. 'A woody, sweet, fruity skin parfum with so many fun layers you can really sink into. 'I love the juxtaposition of things that shouldn't go together but somehow match perfectly. Yin and yang, perhaps. 'My process always starts with my incredible, talented, EPIC-ly legendary (and very patient) perfumers. 'This one is with the master Jerome Epinette. I go in from the very beginning and ask him about every 'juice' he'd be nervous but excited to try, something we haven't seen on the market.' Bella wrapped up the post by sharing, 'This one is nostalgia bottled as always a time capsule of joy, freedom, and innocence. 'I couldn't have brought it to life without my dream team and all of you who believe in my vision. You make it possible for me to create magic.'
