Zayn Malik fans are overjoyed as Gigi Hadid revealed her daughter’s full name during Khai’s lavish 4th birthday party! On Sept. 19, the model shared a heartwarming video of her little angel, followed by several photos. The most special part? A ‘Descendants’ themed scroll showing Khai’s full name, which proudly has Zayn’s last name written on it. Soon after, the usually private singer made a rare appearance, posting a photo with his little angel and writing a heartwarming caption.
In other news, sources say Hadid, who has been dating actor Bradley Cooper for some time now, may be considering a second baby as their friends believe they are “perfect for each other”.
Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik’s daughter turns 4
“Our daughter turns 4 today and we’ve had a whole week of celebrations,” Gigi wrote in the caption of the post, adding, “She loves animals (fantasy too), music, Baby Yoda, all things nature and insects, Descendants, anything small or tiny, and would rather be in the water from dawn to dusk if she can.”
The photos captured many sweet moments shared by the mother-daughter duo, who usually keep a low profile together – a stark contrast to Hadid’s glamorous profession. From Khai’s adorable water adventures and pony rides to her artistic endeavours and culinary experiments, the photos were as heartwarming as they were insightful.

However, it was the photo of the “Descendants” themed scroll that really caught the attention of Gigi and Zayn fans. The scroll revealed Khai’s full name to be “Khai Malik,” a detail that Hadid had kept hidden for years. Fans were thrilled, as she had previously been hesitant to reveal her daughter’s last name publicly, especially since the former couple decided to split.
“Khai- being your mom is the greatest joy and pride of my life!!!! Thank you for the best four years of my life- you remind me every day to live life to the fullest, in the most simple and beautiful ways. Your possibilities are endless, my sweet love,” Gigi concluded her message.
“Khai Malik, @zaynmalik, the best baba in the world, I enjoy your company,” one social media user commented. “I’m not crying, you’re crying,” another wrote, with a teary-eyed emoji. “Khai Malik, I better stop crying,” another added. “Khai Malik makes me so happy!!!!”

He said, “Four years ago today my life changed forever and I wouldn’t be the man I am today without you.” Gigi and Zayn had a tumultuous relationship that lasted for five years before the birth of their baby Khai in 2020. Even though they split in 2021, they decided to continue co-parenting Khai, reportedly on a 50-50 custody basis.
Earlier in an interview with the Sunday Times, the model revealed that she was happy her daughter could “live with both of her parents.”
Gigi Hadid wants a baby with Bradley Cooper
Gigi Hadid’s PDA-filled public outing with Bradley Cooper has undoubtedly filled tinsel town with speculation. According to an insider, Hadid is completely smitten with the actor and sees him as a perfect match for her. However, her friends believe there is a hint of uncertainty on Cooper’s part. “Gigi’s friends know she is looking for a more serious relationship than a casual fling, unlike her previous relationship with Leo DiCaprio,” a source told Life & Style.
Hadid has apparently given Cooper subtle hints about expanding their family, but the actor is taking things more slowly. “She’s made it clear she wants a second child, but she’s a very spontaneous kind of person,” the insider revealed.
