Bella Hadid took a break from the Cannes Film Festival on Sunday, slipping into a pink bikini during a luxury yacht day. The supermodel, 29, showcased her jaw-dropping figure in a tiny two-piece featuring a triangle top and matching bottoms.
A Day on the Yacht
Bella looked incredible as she soaked up the sun in the South of France with several female friends. The runway star later cooled off in the ocean, jumping off the back of the yacht for a swim. Leaving her blonde tresses loose, she was all smiles during the refreshing dip before hopping back on the vessel to shower off the salt water. She shielded from the sun in a pair of sunglasses as she dried her toned body with a white towel.
Later, she pulled on a flannel shirt and sat on the edge of the yacht sipping a beverage while chatting with friends.
Red Carpet Appearance with Brother Anwar
That evening, Bella made the Cannes red carpet a family affair, bringing her brother Anwar as her date. The model siblings posed along the vast red carpet on the French Riviera. Bella stunned in a custom white strapless Prada gown accessorised with sparkling Chopard diamonds, while her younger brother, 26, let her shine in his classic tuxedo. Bella later changed into a figure-skimming nude dress with a diamante-studded hem for her glamorous exit from the premiere.
Anwar's Rare Public Appearance
It was a rare public appearance for Anwar, who has kept out of the spotlight in recent years, focusing on his band HowVanish while continuing work on his leather accessories brand, Obsidien. In a recent interview with Wonderland Magazine, Anwar, who once dated Dua Lipa and Nicola Peltz, revealed how Bella and their sister Gigi have supported his varied career. 'We're very supportive on an emotional level, but they've always trusted my path,' Anwar explained. Regarding his pivot away from modelling, he added that following his sisters down the runway never felt natural. 'I used to cry when people took pictures of me when I was little; I really don't like it. So the way my life turned out and who I am is not a surprise to my family. They trust my timing and support me. The people who love me know I pursued music to pave my own path, and they let me do that.'
Bella's Health Journey
Bella had her own career hiatus last year and has been gaining strength after being hospitalised with symptoms from her 13-year battle with chronic neurological Lyme disease. Bella, her mother Yolanda Hadid, and Anwar contracted the tickborne illness in 2012 and 2013. Yolanda posted on Instagram in September: 'You are relentless and courageous. No child is supposed to suffer in their body with an incurable chronic disease. I admire your bravery and your willingness to keep fighting for health despite the failing protocols and countless setbacks you have faced. There simply aren't words big enough for the darkness, the pain, and the unknown hell you've lived through since your diagnosis in 2013. You didn't really live, you learned how to exist inside the jail of your own paralyzed brain. I am so proud of the fighter that you are. You are not alone, I promise to have your back every step of the way, no matter how long this takes. This disease has brought us to our knees, but we always get back up. We will continue to fight for better days, together. You are a survivor. I love you so much my badass Warrior.'
