US EditionGigi Hadid Speaks Out for First Time After Her and Sister Bella Were Featured in Epstein Files
Hadid said she never met Epstein and called the reference disturbing, while stressing there is no evidence of any direct contact.
- On Monday, Gigi Hadid addressed being named in 2015 emails involving Jeffrey Epstein, unequivocally denying any affiliation with the convicted sex offender and calling the reference "horrible to read."
- The controversy stems from a 2015 email exchange released by the US Department of Justice, in which an unnamed individual questioned how the Hadid sisters rose to fame, prompting Epstein to speculate their father, Mohamed Hadid, "paid the agency."
- Hadid noted she was 20 or 21 when the email was written and credited her parents, Mohamed Hadid and Yolanda Hadid, for instilling "the value of hard work" that shaped her career.
- Initially hesitant to comment, Hadid explained she wanted to avoid detracting from Epstein's real victims but ultimately spoke out after realizing silence risked allowing false assumptions to persist.
- The US Department of Justice has released over three million documents this year under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, dragging numerous public figures into renewed scrutiny and illustrating how quickly reputations become entangled in the sprawling files.
