Bella Hadid

Bella Hadid was born Isabella Khairiah Hadid in Washington, D.C., on October 9, 1996. She was raised with a strong sense of cultural heritage by her parents, Yolanda Hadid, a former model from the Netherlands, and Mohamed Hadid, a Palestinian-Jordanian real estate entrepreneur. Bella grew raised on a ranch in Santa Barbara, California, with her older sister Gigi and baby brother Anwar. Later, the family relocated to Beverly Hills. Bella's early years were shaped by this multicultural and multi-experienced family setting.

After ten years on the ranch, the Hadid family moved to Beverly Hills. During her adolescence, Bella was particularly interested in equestrian sports and had aspirations of competing in the 2016 Summer Olympics. Her attention, though, switched from Olympic sports to horseback riding. In addition, Bella was diagnosed with Chronic Lyme disease in 2012, a health issue that would affect her choices in life and work, along with her mother and brother.

After pursuing her studies, Bella attended Malibu High School, from which she graduated in 2014. She moved to New York City to study photography at the Parsons School of Design as a result of her desire to further her education. She had planned to major in academics at first, but her modeling career took off, so she put her studies on hold for the time being. She does, however, plan to return to school when her modeling business allows.
