Bella Hadid wished her mother Yolanda Hadid a heartfelt happy birthday after their former Malibu home was destroyed in the recent fires. Bella shared a post on social media expressing love and gratitude for her mother, emphasizing the resilience they’ve shown in the face of the tragedy. The Hadid family’s Malibu home, which was once a place of cherished memories, was one of many properties lost to the devastating wildfires currently ravaging California.
The model and her mother, who is also a former reality TV star, have received support from fans and loved ones during this difficult time, with Bella sharing that they are focusing on the positive and finding strength in each other. Despite the loss, the family remains united, with Bella’s message reflecting their enduring bond.
Bella Hadid and her mother, Yolanda Hadid, have found comfort in their shared experience of battling Lyme disease, a tick-borne illness they both contracted in 2012. The pair, now living in Fort Worth, TX, have bonded over their health journeys, with Yolanda detailing her extensive treatments in her 2017 book Believe Me. In the book, she shared the challenges of seeing “106 doctors” and undergoing a variety of therapies, including Stem Cell transplants, Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, Chelation therapy, and colon hydrotherapy, in her fight against the illness.
Yolanda, a former Ford model, had a successful 15-year career in the fashion industry and was instrumental in shaping the careers of her children, who have all entered the world of modeling. Bella, along with her siblings Gigi and Anwar, followed in their mother’s footsteps, becoming prominent figures in the modeling world.
Their shared struggle with Lyme disease has not only shaped their careers but also fostered a deep connection between mother and daughter as they continue to support each other through the physical and emotional challenges of the illness.
Yolanda Hadid, former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, celebrated her birthday with heartfelt messages from her ex-husband Mohamed Hadid and her children. Mohamed, with whom she shares three children—Bella, Gigi, and Anwar—wished her the “happiest birthday” on Instagram, praising her as a “guiding light” to their children. Despite their amicable divorce in 2000, the two maintain a supportive relationship.
Yolanda’s life took another turn after her four-year marriage to music producer David Foster ended in 2017. Last August, she got engaged to Joseph Jingoli Jr., a staffer at Jingoli Properties in Texas. Yolanda is also a proud grandmother to Gigi’s daughter, Khai, whom Gigi shares with her former partner Zayn Malik.
In a tragic turn, Yolanda shared the devastating news on Thursday that her family’s former Malibu home, the Carbon Canyon Estate, was destroyed in the recent LA wildfires. The property, which they had sold in 2015 after living there for eight years, was a six-bedroom, 11-bathroom mansion. Bella posted a tribute to the home, expressing how much she will miss it and describing the loss as “devastating.”
The fires have ravaged large areas of California, affecting over 38,000 acres and leading to at least 16 confirmed deaths. Over 105,000 residents remain under evacuation orders, with economic damage estimated to be in the $135B-$150B range. Celebrities, including Mel Gibson, Paris Hilton, Jeff Bridges, and others, have also lost their homes in the blaze.#newsafro_
