Supermodel mom and knitwear entrepreneur Gigi Hadid has already declared that summer is over. Hadid posted what she called a summer roundup today, and who could argue with the superstar? Now that the sweltering heat is behind us, we’re ready to trade in our sweats for PSLs and cozy sweaters. Taking advantage of Instagram’s new feature that lets users post up to 20 photos in one carousel, Hadid’s post included a super cute photo of her daughter, Kai Malik, who is 3 years old (and incredibly, almost 4).
“Great summer summary. The best of both worlds,” Hadid captioned the post, which also shared a slew of summer adventures, including playing with a garden hose, going on nature walks overlooking the river, and snuggling with her mom. Hadid has Khai with ex-boyfriend Zayn Malik. The model is currently dating actor Bradley Cooper, and a source close to the couple says one of the reasons they stay together is their daughters — Cooper co-parents 7-year-old Lea de Seine with ex-girlfriend Irina Shayk.
One of the most eye-catching shots from Hadid and Khai’s summer photoshoot was her customized Versace robe, which was adorned with Versace’s signature Medusa logo and glittery letters spelling out “Khai.”
Hadid’s summer was also full of professional milestones: Her posts included pictures of her horseback riding with model Kendall Jenner in Paris for Vogue World, attending friend Liv Perez’s wedding, and attending the premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine.

Gigi doesn’t post many photos of Khai, so it’s always nice for fans to get a glimpse into her sweet life (her face is usually hidden by emojis or shown from behind, in line with Hadid’s desire to keep her out of the spotlight).

Earlier this year, Malik revealed that he chose to raise Khai away from the city and entertainment industry, with Hadid spending most of her time on a farm in rural Pennsylvania.
“When I found out my then-partner was pregnant, I quickly decided that this would be the best place to raise our child because there’s so much for her to do here,” Malik told L’Officials in March. “So we spend a lot of time outside.”
