Gigi Hadid has reportedly “grown closer” with her sister Bella Hadid following her alleged split from Zayn Malik.
Towards the end of October, allegations arose that Zayn struck the model’s mother, Yolanda Hadid, during an argument at the couple's Pennsylvania home while Gigi was away in Paris in September. On October 28, Zayn shared a Twitter statement about the altercation just before TMZ broke the news:
Zayn also gave an official statement to TMZ at the time: “I adamantly deny striking Yolanda Hadid, and for the sake of my daughter I decline to give any further details, and I hope that Yolanda will reconsider her false allegations and move towards healing these family issues in private.”
"I adamantly deny striking Yolanda Hadid. For the sake of my daughter I decline to give any further details."

Despite denying physically assaulting Yolanda, court documents reviewed by TMZ and elle.com confirmed that Malik pled no contest to at least one charge of harassment against the Hadids.
According to TMZ, Malik will pay a fine and is “on 90 days probation for each count, totalling 360 days.” On top of the fine, Malik reportedly “must complete an anger management class and a domestic violence program.”
According to a source who recently spoke with People in December, Gigi Hadid has been leaning on her younger sister throughout the ordeal. “Gigi and Bella have grown closer since the Zayn and Yolanda incident,” the source said. "Bella has stuck by her side, as the situation has caused a lot of tension within the family."

The source continued by confirming previous reports that Zayn and Gigi have broken up but continue to co-parent their 15-month-old daughter, Khai. "Gigi is done with Zayn. She's a really private person, so Bella has really been there to support her," the source continued. "It's been tough on all of them because they're all so close. That's her mom, but it's still her baby's father, even though their romantic relationship is over."
They added, "This has not been easy on Gigi and has caused a lot of stress on relationships with her family."
Back in October, a rep for Gigi told People, “Gigi is solely focused on the best for Khai. She asks for privacy during this time.”
