Gigi Hadid has shared how ‘disturbing’ it was to discover she was mentioned in the Epstein documents following pressure from a fan to come forward.

The model, 30, and her sister Bella, 29, were referenced in emails sent by a convicted individualpaedophile Jeffrey Epstein, disclosed by the US Department of Justice.

More than 3 million pages havebeen steadily released, including FBI advice, wire transfer confirmations, private jet itineraries, and documents related to children’s school enrollment.

While certain names have triggered inquiries, for exampleAndrew Mountbatten-Windsor, others were referenced in emailsnever meeting the fallen financier.

Gigi responded to a fan onInstagramafter they claimed they had unfollowed her because she hadn’t commented on ‘those files’.

“Disgusting to read someone you’ve never met talking about you like that. Especially in this situation,” she replied in a comment that has since been deleted.

According to E! News, Gigi mentioned that she hadn’t wished to speak up because she didn’t want to ‘diminish the tales of’real victims of his’.

“Your comment made me realize perhaps it’s not clear – and it’s important for you to know,” the model whoshares a daughter with Zayn Malik added.

The name Gigi was mentioned together with her sister’s in emails from 2015 between Epstein and a person whose identity has been redacted.

The unidentified person asked: ‘How did the Hadid sisters become models and earn so much money? I don’t understand…’

Epstein responded with “You know,” and the other person mentioned that their father, real estate developer Mohamed Hadid, had “paid” the agency.

The fallen financier replied with a ‘no’ and then explained, ‘It’s because they obey instructions; that’s all there is to it.’

Gigi and Bella joined IMG Models in 2012, emerging as two of the most in-demand models during the new generation of supermodels.

Her modeling career actually started when she was just two years old, as she appeared in Baby Guess advertisements.

In her message, the mother of one child admitted she had been raised in a ‘privileged’ environment, but her parents had ‘shielded me and instilled in me the importance of diligence’.

“The identical dedication that brought them to this country and secured their careers,” she added.

To be mentioned in those documents, I believe I was 20 or 21 when he likely sent that email – it’s unsettling, and I want to clearly say that I have never been associated with that repulsive person.

She appended to the original poster that she was “sending love” and expressed gratitude for their support.

No evidence suggests that Gigi, her sibling, or their parents ever encountered Epstein or went to his island.
