Gigi Hadid Gets Emotional Over Sister Bella’s VS Fashion Show Debut

Gigi and Bella Hadid took sisterly love to a whole new level backstage at the 2016 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, which aired last night.

Viewers got to catch an emotional glimpse of the lovefest happening behind the scenes, where Gigi was shown gushing about her little sister Bella. “I’m so proud of her for getting this show because she works so hard,” said a tearful Gigi.

Bella Hadid made her runway debut during this year’s show, filmed in Paris, making her and Gigi the first-ever sisters to walk the Victoria’s Secret runway. “For us to be able to do it together and be the first sisters in the show—we’re really, really honored,” Gigi explained.

“I didn’t mean to cry,” Gigi said as Bella, who also couldn’t fight back the tears, joined her on camera. “We’re so excited!” she exclaimed as she wrapped her arm around Bella. “This is us happy—we’re a really emotional family,” Bella added behind laughs and joyous tears.

“It’s amazing to be able to experience all this and to be so excited for each other,” Gigi explained. Bella chimed in, “She’s my best friend, and it’s so crazy to be here together.”

Bella took to Instagram to share several moments of love with her best friend. So sweet!
