Gigi Hadid is pushing back after her name surfaced in documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein.

The supermodel addressed the controversy directly, calling the association “disturbing” while emphasizing she had no connection to him.

Her response comes as the files spark online debate and renewed scrutiny, and amid recent comments from exes, including Zayn Malik and Cody Simpson.

Gigi Hadid Responds To Epstein File Mention

The controversy began after newly released documents referenced Gigi Hadid in a 2015 email exchange.

According to the correspondence, a redacted individual questioned the professional success of Gigi and her sister, writing, “How did the Hadid sisters became models and make so much money?! I don’t understand…”

Epstein reportedly replied, “You know,” prompting the individual to respond, “The father paid the agency,” to which he answered, “No.”

He later added, “Because they follow directions, its that simple.”

The exchange quickly drew attention online, sparking speculation and prompting calls for Hadid to address the mention.

The model eventually responded after a social media user criticized her for remaining silent.

She revealed that reading the documents “made me sick to my stomach.”

Hadid Defends Her Success

In a detailed explanation, Gigi Hadid clarified why she initially avoided commenting.

She wrote per E! News, “Horrible to read someone you’ve never met speak about you that way. Especially in this context.”

She also added, “I didn’t comment because I don’t want to take away from the stories of real victims of his; but your comment made me realize maybe its not clear—and it’s important to let you know.”

The supermodel stressed that she wanted the focus to remain on victims while still addressing the speculation surrounding her name.

Her message aimed to separate herself from the narrative while acknowledging the seriousness of the broader situation.

Hadid also reflected on her upbringing, explaining that although she “grew up privileged,” her parents “protected me and taught me the value of hard work.”

She further noted that after signing with a modeling agency in 2012, “I’ve worked hard every moment since.”

These comments appeared to counter the insinuations made in the email exchange about how she achieved success.

Gigi Hadid Calls Alleged Association Disturbing

The documents stem from material connected to Jeffrey Epstein, who faced serious criminal allegations before his death in 2019.

His legal troubles and connections to prominent figures have continued to generate headlines, with newly released files prompting renewed public interest.

Hadid emphasized the timeline in her response, pointing out she was young at the time of the alleged email.

She explained, “To be named in those files, I think I was 20-21 at the time he would have written that email—is disturbing.”

She concluded firmly, “and I want to state unequivocally that I have never had any affiliation with that disgusting human being.”

Her statement was one of her most direct responses to controversy in recent years.

By addressing the claims head-on, she sought to dispel any assumptions linking her to Epstein.

Zayn Malik Reflects On Hadid Relationship

The Epstein controversy unfolded amid comments from Zayn Malik about his past relationship with Gigi Hadid.

Speaking on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, the singer shared his feelings about their time together and their daughter.

“I will always love Gigi, because she’s the reason my child is on this Earth, and I have the utmost respect for her,” Malik said.

He also reflected on the emotional dynamics of their relationship, admitting that while he cared deeply for her, he felt something was missing.

He explained, “I don’t think I was in love with her at that point. Otherwise, I would have been a better version of myself.”

Looking back, Malik added, “I don’t feel like it was love.”

His remarks offered a candid perspective on their relationship, which ended after several years together.

Another former partner, Cody Simpson, also spoke about his time with Hadid during an appearance on the “We Need To Talk with Paul C. Brunson” podcast.

Reflecting on their relationship, Simpson described it fondly, saying, “It was kind of like she was my first love, man. Absolutely.”

He further elaborated on the significance of their connection, noting, “The universe brings people together when they’re supposed to be together … We were supposed to be together when we were and learnt stuff from each other.”

As attention continues to swirl around the Epstein files and renewed discussions about her relationships, Gigi Hadid’s response remains clear.

By calling the alleged link “disgusting” and denying any affiliation, she aimed to put distance between herself and the controversy while reaffirming her own narrative.
