Isabella Bella Khair Hadid

As a teenager, Hadid was a nationally ranked equestrian player and originally had dreams to attend the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro but was unable to train and compete due to her suffering Lyme disease. It was announced that she suffered from Lyme in October 2015. She and her mother and brother, Anwar, were all diagnosed with the disease in 2012.
In Fall of 2014, Bella began studying photography at the Parsons School of Design, but has since dropped out due to the success of her modeling career. She has expressed interest in wanting to go back to school and take on Fashion Photography as a career once she is done modeling.
