She wrote: “Congratulations Gigi & Zayn!! “

Hayley Bieber posted: “Welcome baby girl! So happy for you guys.”

Olivia Culpo shared: “Ahhhh!!!!! HUGE congrats!!!!! I can’t wait to meet this angel.”

Gigi first confirmed her pregnancy in April, after “family sources” first revealed the news.

She said at the time: “Obviously, we wished we could have announced it on our own terms but we’re very excited and happy and grateful for everyone’s well wishes and support. Especially during this time, it’s a nice silver lining to be able to be home and be together and really experience it day by day.”
