The news of Gigi Hadid's pregnancy is currently taking the internet by storm.

However, already Gigi is planning her child's future and here's who is her role model for motherhood.
Gigi Hadid's role model for tackling motherhood
On her Instagram, Gigi Hadid posted a throwback picture with mother, Yolanda Hadid on the occasion of Mother's Day. The picture was of a baby Gigi sitting on her mother's lap who flaunted a baby bump clad in a bikini. Adding a caption to her post, the model said she hoped her baby would "emulate" the qualities of Yolanda, "Best I could ever ask for. ❤️ Happy Mother’s Day to the one I’ll do my best to emulate. I love you beyond words @yolanda.hadid you are a superhero!!!!!".
It was Yolanda Hadid who first confirmed the news of Gigi Hadid's pregnancy, even before Gigi did. In conversation with an entertainment portal, Yolanda had said she was "shocked" that their little secret got leaked to the media. But they were all very excited. Gigi is known to be very close to her mother and her family in general.
