The picturesque wedding of Alana Hadid, half-sister to modelling superstars Gigi and Bella Hadid, became the centre of unexpected family drama this weekend when her famous siblings were notably absent from the celebrations.
According to exclusive sources close to the wedding planning team, the absence of the world-renowned models cast a shadow over what should have been a joyous family occasion. The intimate ceremony proceeded without two of fashion's most recognisable faces, leaving guests and planners alike questioning the reasons behind their non-attendance.
A Celebration Overshadowed
Insiders reveal that wedding planners had meticulously prepared for a star-studded family affair, only to discover that Gigi and Bella would not be gracing the event with their presence. The absence was particularly poignant given the sisters' close relationship in the public eye.
"There was definitely an elephant in the room," revealed one wedding staff member who wished to remain anonymous. "Everyone kept expecting them to show up fashionably late, but they never came."
Family Dynamics Under Scrutiny
The Hadid family, no strangers to the spotlight, has often presented a united front despite the complexities of their blended family dynamics. Alana, sharing the same father Mohamed Hadid with her supermodel sisters, has typically maintained a lower public profile than her famous siblings.
Wedding planners noted that Alana remained composed and radiant throughout the ceremony, focusing on the loved ones who did attend to celebrate her special day. The bride's professionalism in the face of potential disappointment impressed the entire wedding team.
The Show Must Go On
Despite the missing A-list relatives, the wedding proceeded as a beautiful and heartfelt celebration of love. The ceremony featured elegant decor, personalised touches, and emotional moments that highlighted the couple's genuine connection.
"At the end of the day, it's about the couple's happiness," commented another wedding staff member. "Alana looked absolutely stunning and was completely focused on her new husband and their future together."
The reasons behind Gigi and Bella's absence remain unclear, with representatives for the models yet to comment on their scheduling conflicts or personal reasons for missing their sister's big day.
