Gigi’s Paris appearance comes after a low-key winter for the star, who has been busy focusing on her daughter Khai and her relationship with Bradley Cooper in recent months.

Last month the doting mom gave her fans a glimpse of her daughter in adorable snaps shared to Instagram. 

The supermodel, 29 expressed that she felt ‘blessed’ as she uploaded photos taken towards the end of 2024. 

The media personality welcomed Khai, four, to the world in September 2020 – and shares the little one with ex and former One Direction member Zayn Malik

During an interview with Net-a-Porter back in 2023, the model opened up about how she balances both work and motherhood. 

‘I think when you are a parent, you have to be intentional because now, I literally have half the time. I work when my daughter is with her dad, and that’s the time I have.’
