Bella and Gigi Hadid's mom Yolanda, 61, suffers heartbreak after ex-husband's secret daughter reveal
The mother of supermodels Gigi and Bella Hadid is facing a cruel summer after the end of her six-year engagement. Dutch model & reality star Yolanda Hadid and her fiancee Joseph Jingoli have decided to end their engagement, an insider told People on Thursday. This comes off the heels of the Daily Mail's exclusive confirmation that Yolanda's ex-husband Mohamed Hadid had secretly fathered a 23-year-old daughter named Aydan Nix, who met Gigi and Bella in the last two years. Aydan, who has been seen socializing with her supermodel half-sisters on multiple occasions, graduated from New York City 's Parsons School of Design last month. Gigi and Bella Hadid confirmed to Daily Mail that Aydan is their half-sister - and called her a 'cherished,' 'unexpected' and 'beautiful addition to our family.' Daily Mail has reached out to reps for Yolanda, Gigi and Bella on the topic. Yolanda was married to real estate mogul Mohamed Hadid, from 1994 until 2000. She was later wed to music producer David Foster from until 2011 until 2017. Yolanda previously appeared on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills from 2012-2016.

The VERY complicated Hadid family: As Gigi and Bella's secret half-sister is revealed, how the models are linked to Hollywood royalty, including Kylie Jenner and Elvis Presley
Bella and Gigi Hadid have revealed their stunning secret half-sister Aydan Nix in an exclusive statement to the Daily Mail - but it's far from being the only surprising family connections the models have. Both sisters, along with their brother Anwar, share unlikely links to some of Hollywood's most glitzy A-listers across the ages; from Elvis to Kylie Jenner. At the heart of their plethora of showbiz webs is ex-step father and award-winning composer David Foster, who has been dubbed 'Patient Zero of the Kardashian phenomenon' by his own daughter, thanks to his five famous marriages, according to Vanity Fair. The producer, as well as being wed to Yolanda Hadid for seven years, has also been married to Caitlyn Jenner 's ex Linda Thompson, who enjoyed a four year romance with 'The King of Rock' Presley in the 70s. Further red strings emerge when it emerges that Robert Kardashian - Kris Jenner 's ex and the father of her children - too was linked to the musical legend as he dated his wife Priscilla after his sister-in-law was linked to the star's road manager Joe Esposito. The most recent familial surprise comes from the Hadids themselves, as Gigi, 30, and Bella, 28, confirmed they have a secret sibling who has become part of their inner circle after meeting for the first time less than two years ago. The 23-year-old graduated from the Parsons School of Design in Manhattan earlier this month and was born after her mother became pregnant after a brief romance with Mohamed Hadid, the models' multi-millionaire real estate developer father. Aydan and her mother's link to the superstar family have been kept under wraps for almost two decades, until now. The sisters on Thursday said that they have 'cherished this unexpected and beautiful addition to our family'. The Daily Mail understands that Mohamed, now 76, maintains a relationship with Aydan in private but has never acknowledged her publicly. The young graduate, who grew up in Orlando, Florida, studied Fine and Studio Arts at Parsons and connected with the sisters when she was studying abroad in Paris last year. Since then, she has been photographed with them on multiple occasions. They have been spotted on nights out in New York and during bikini-clad trips to the beach. Family members told the the Daily Mail that the newfound sisters have kept in contact and were 'becoming closer'. David, as well as being wed to Yolanda Hadid for six years, has also been married to Caitlyn Jenner 's ex Linda Thompson, who enjoyed a four year romance with 'The King of Rock' Presley in the 70s. They follow each other on social media and appear on each others' Instagram stories. Aydan's relationship with Bella and Gigi is far from her only Hollywood link, with the Hadids invisibly tethered to many A-listers via their mother's second marriage. Yolanda, 61 - who was married to Mohamed from 1994 to 2000, with the couple having Gigi, Bella and Anwar together - went on to have a relationship with music industry legend David Foster and the pair wed in 2011. They later announced in 2015 that they were divorcing, and the process was finalized two years later. The Canadian record producer, 75, has worked with countless stars including George Harrison, Rod Stewart, Dolly Parton, Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin and Celine Dion. He served as a stepfather to all three of Yolanda's kids. Since the split, the families appear to have maintained fairly congenial relationships. David, who had previously been married to B.J. Cook, 82, Rebecca Dyer, 73, and Linda Thompson, 75, later got engaged to actress Katharine McPhee, 41, in 2018 and tied the knot with her the following year. In February 2021, they welcomed their first child together, a son, Rennie, now four. He became the six of David's children, including his oldest daughter Allison Jones, 54, who was born when David was 20 and was initially adopted by another couple, though she later reconnected with him and took on a major role at the David Foster Foundation. His other daughters include Amy S. Foster, 51; Sara Foster, 43; Erin Foster, 40; and Jordan Foster, 37. During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Erin previously spoke about how Gigi had kept up a relationship with her former step-siblings. 'Gigi actually just DMed me last night saying she was starting to watch the show,' she said, referring to her hit Netflix rom-com Nobody Wants This. 'The kids don't get divorced, just the parents do.' Gigi has also welcomed a daughter, Khai, with fellow A-lister Zayn Malik in 2020. It is through David's past marriage to singer Linda that he bridges the Hadids to the Jenners, as she was married to Caitlyn Jenner from 1981 to 1985, with the couple sharing sons Brandon and Brody. Caitlyn went on to wed Kris Jenner, 69 - the Kardashian's matriarch - and the pair were married for more than two decades. They had daughters Kylie, 27, and Kendall, 29 - who are both now known to be pals with the Hadid sisters. Kris, who had Kourtney, 46, Kim, 44, Khloe, 40, and Rob, 38, with her late ex-husband and Hollywood lawyer Robert also links the Hadids to the Kardashian by proxy. And both Linda and Robert offer a bizarre Old Hollywood bridge for the family - as they dated both Elvis and Priscilla Presley respectively. Speaking to CNN in 2002, Linda opened up about the challenges of dating such a big star - and admitted she still thought of him decades on. 'You know, it's over 25 years since his passing. He had a tremendous impact on my life, my perception of life, my perception of love and what romance and marriage and family should be, could be,' she revealed. 'So, yes, I think of him even in subliminal terms sometimes. He influences my music and lyrics, as do all the people that I have loved in my life, from my mom and dad to other people that I have loved.' Elsewhere, some reports have even claimed that Robert and Priscilla nearly got married.
