In an interview with W Magazine for their fall fashion issue, the supermodel Gigi Hadid, aged 28, shared insights into her daily morning routine, and it seems her 2-year-old daughter, Khai, plays a central role.

"We get ready together. She watches me do my thing," Hadid affectionately revealed about her mornings with Khai. "She'll even brush her teeth with me, and now she's showing interest in putting moisturizer on, which is just so cute."

The proud mother couldn't help but gush about her daughter, saying, "She really makes me laugh. We crack up, dance all day, and have lots of conversations. She's almost 3, and, if I may say so, she's quite the genius."

Hadid shares her adorable daughter with her former partner, Zayn Malik.

Recently, the model mom discussed how she balances her professional life with her responsibilities as a parent in an interview with NET-A-PORTER. "I think when you're a parent, you have to be intentional because now I literally have half the time," Hadid explained regarding her co-parenting arrangement with Malik. "I work when my daughter is with her dad, and that's the time I have."

She emphasized that it's essential for her to choose fulfilling professional commitments during that time, saying, "I will fit in as many jobs as I can on those days. I'm sometimes a bit of a workaholic, but if it means a lot to me, then I do it."

Despite their separation in October 2021, following a reported incident involving Hadid's mother, Yolanda, both Hadid and Malik remain committed to co-parenting Khai and have seamlessly embraced their roles as loving parents.

Malik expressed his thoughts on fatherhood in a March 2021 interview on HeartRadio's Valentine in the Morning, saying, "It's been really easy for me and Gigi to kind of just ease into it, I guess. She kind of made it easy for us. She sleeps really well, she loves her milk."

In a July interview on Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy podcast, Malik further shared his sentiments about fatherhood, highlighting how Khai has brought vibrancy and meaning to his life. He emphasized his main goal since Khai's birth is to "be a good example to her" and bring color back into his life as he navigates the world of parenthood.
