Gigi Hadid thinks that the poor health of his close family has made him "very independent".
The 23-year-old model says she has developed greater resilience with her sister Bella, her mother Yolanda and her brother Anwar battling Lyme disease, an infection that undermines energy and can be transmitted through infected ticks.
She explained, "Growing up, having three sick family members made me very independent.My mother could not drive or get up from bed some days, so I had brought my brother to school with me or I prepared lunch. "
On the other hand, Gigi also admitted to having feelings of "guilt" because of the health problems of his immediate family.
The star of the podium told Elle magazine: "I also felt very guilty about being the only person in the family who did not understand what she was going through.
"It's hard when your family hurts and you do not know what to do."
Similarly, Gigi had previously admitted that she could not really understand the struggles of her mother, sister and brother.
The beautiful blonde said that she wanted to "give hope" to her family, even though she could not understand their daily fears.
Gigi – who, like her sister Bella, is one of the most famous models in the world – explained: "I am the only person among my brothers and sisters, my mother and my family who was not touched by the Lyme disease.
"It was very difficult for me because I am the only one who does not understand it.
"What was most difficult for me, is trying to find a way to become their hope and become a strength for them even with the disease that I can not understand completely because I did not experience it. "
