Gigi Hadid is the daughter of supermodel and reality TV personality Yolanda Hadid. While the high-fashion model and sister of Bella and Anwar Hadid hasn't commented on celebrity nepotism recently, she has previously spoken out about having built-in Hollywood connections thanks to her parents.
"People say that I don't deserve to be where I am because I come from this successful family," Hadid said at a 2018 Reebok event. "My dad was a refugee, my mum was on a farm, went to New York, and worked to send money back to her family… I work hard to honor that."
In 2022, she opened up a bit more about her family. "Technically I'm a nepotism baby," Hadid said in a March interview with The Times. "My parents came from very little. I've always acknowledged that I come from privilege," she continued. "My parents told me, 'Just because you have parents who were successful, it doesn't mean that you shouldn't walk into the job being as nice and as hard-working as you can be."
