AceShowbiz - Gigi Hadid and sister Bella Hadid were already angels years before they began working with Victoria's Secret. Their mom Yolanda Hadid proved it with a throwback photo she shared on Wednesday, November 30 ahead of the lingerie brand's annual fashion show in Paris.
The old snap, taken 17 years ago when Gigi and Bella were both still toddlers, showed them posing next to each other without their clothes on. They smiled at the camera with feathered wings strapped to their backs. "Dreams do come true," read the words written across the image.
"17 years after I photographed my 'ANGELS' Today is the day that they will be walking in the fashion show together.........," Yolanda excitedly wrote in the caption, adding the hashtags #Excited #Grateful #Paris #VS #Sisters and #ProudMommy.
However, not everyone loved the photo. Some fans responded to it by slamming the former "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star, accusing her of "sexualizing" her children and calling the picture "disturbing."
"Why are u sexualizing young children. Disturbing," one Instagram user wrote in the comment section. "What parent does this wtf lol," another said, while another branded the photo "creepy."
Fortunately, a lot of other fans came to Yolanda's defense. "Whatever creeps exist around the world are going to lurk here and in other places. Her post is to celebrate a proud accomplishment her babies have achieved. The same creep can record the show on Monday and watch her Angels on repeat!" someone said.
Gigi returned for the second time to the VS runway while her younger sister Bella made her debut at the show on Wednesday at Paris' Grand Palais. They joined fellow models like Kendall Jenner and Irina Shayk as well as veteran Angels like Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio and Lily Aldridge.
