Bella Hadid Opens Up About Life, Love, and Struggles at Ritz Paris

PARIS, France – Bella Hadid, a prominent fashion model, recently held a long-awaited interview at the Ritz Paris, where she discussed her career, health challenges, and personal life. Despite her nerves, Hadid, 28, expressed a desire to open up about her experiences.

Hadid, who is of Palestinian and Dutch descent, is currently filming a new television series titled “The Beauty,” produced by Ryan Murphy. The series explores the concept of a sexually transmitted infection that enhances attractiveness. Throughout her time in Paris, she has been capturing attention by riding a motorcycle while filming, dressed in bold red leather.

As she engaged with fans outside the hotel, Hadid emphasized her view of them not as fans, but friends. She took time to connect with the crowd, sharing hugs and autographs amidst a flurry of camera flashes.

Despite her glamorous appearances, Hadid’s journey has not been without significant challenges. Struggling with Lyme disease and mental health issues, she often finds herself isolated. Friend and family texts her with reminders of “Proof of life?” to check in during difficult times.

Inspiringly, she credits her recent move to Texas and her relationship with cowboy horse trainer Mark Banuelos with helping her manage her struggles. “Family is on my mind,” Hadid said, expressing her wish to be a mother someday. Her love for her niece Khai is evident, as she describes her as “the best thing since sliced bread.”

Hadid is also focusing on her perfume line, Orebella, which launched last year and will soon be available in the UK. The brand has become a creative outlet for her, reflecting her passion for philanthropy and connection with her fans.

Amid discussions, she challenged the expectations placed on model’s appearances, revealing her sensitivity to public perception and her struggles with self-esteem. “I’ve never felt extremely deserving of the things that I have,” she shared, underlying the complexity of her beauty and public persona.

As she navigates her career and personal life, Hadid remains focused on her values and aspirations for the future. “I always feel overstimulated and I wish I could just be somewhere helping everybody,” she stated, signaling a desire to give back and make a meaningful impact.
