Bella Hadid, is opening up about her religion
and her experience being the daughter of a Palestinian refugee.
“My dad was a refugee when he first came to
America, so it’s actually very close to home for my sister [Gigi] and
brother [Anwar] and me,” Hadid said in PORTER’s Summer Issue, according to
E! Online.
Bella is the daughter of model Yolanda Hadid
and the Palestinian real estate developer Mohamed Hadid, whose father was expelled from Israel when Mohammed was a
child and eventually moved the family to the United States.
“[My dad] was always religious, and he always
prayed with us,” the supermodel added. “I am proud to be a Muslim.”
According to Huffington post, Hadid, along
with sister Gigi, joined demonstrators marching in New York City to protest the
recent executive orders on immigration.
Hadid shared a photo of herself carrying a
sign reading, “We Are All Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, Atheists, Christians,
Jews,” with different letters bolded to spell the word “Humans.”
