Yolanda Hadid Gushes about Only Son Anwar to Mark National Son Day in New IG Post
Renowned television personality Yolanda Hadid marked the recent National Son Day with a sweet tribute on Instagram for her only son Anwar. Check out her touching post.
Besides being a star on the hit reality show "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," Yolanda Hadid is also best known as the youthful mother of renowned models Gigi, Bella, and Anwar Hadid.
The 57-year-old former model is one proud mom, with all three children following in her footsteps and enjoying success in their own modeling careers. She also does not shy from expressing her love and pride for them.

On September 29, Yolanda took to Instagram to show the world how much she adores her 22-year-old son Anwar. She shared a photo of him and wrote in the caption:
"Light of my life, Thank you for sharing your wisdom, your beautiful heart and the depth of your soul, your ability to always see good in everything and for bringing the light to darkness."
The snap showed Anwar walking past a cafe in a gray sleeveless shirt, blue denim pants, and black sneakers. It was a candid shot that caught the young model with a serious expression on his face.

Tattoos all over his arms, shoulders, and chest also stood out in the photo. Also seen in the snap was his famous girlfriend, British pop star Dua Lipa, who looked equally stylish.
Anwar has another impressive skill besides modeling - producing music.
The "Don't Start Now" hitmaker was partly cropped in the shot, but her fashionable ensemble - a brown coat over a plunging shirt, a mini skirt, and knee-high boots - was quite visible.
Fans quickly commented on Yolanda's photo and noted that the mother of three is lucky to have a beautiful family. Another remarked that Anwar got his best qualities from the reality star.
Anwar has another impressive skill besides modeling - producing music. In April 2021, he released his first song, "OFF @ NIGHT," from his yet-to-be-released album "Bleach."
As her children maintain their respective careers, Yolanda is enjoying her time on the sidelines - being a health enthusiast and a grandmother to her new little angel Khai, Gigi's daughter.
The Hadid matriarch has been diagnosed with Lyme disease, the same illness that Bella and Anwar also have. Yolanda revealed she once contemplated not living another day because of her condition.
Amid her struggle with her disease, Yolanda is grateful for having children who look after her wellness. She said her grown-up kids are the reason she continues to live.
As she maintains a healthy lifestyle, Yolanda is also taking another chance at love. Previously married to Mohammed Hadid and then to David Foster, she is now dating businessman Joseph Jingoli.
