When word first got out that Gigi Hadid was pregnant, with the father being none other than Zayn Malik, the world just about went crazy. Now, with her due date rapidly approaching in September, there is about a month left before the world is graced with her beautiful child. As a student who has studied Genetics, I decided to use my knowledge and make my own educated and cultivated guess on the possible genetic make-up of the baby.
1. Hair Color
Gigi is known for her thick golden locks that were featured in Calvin Harris' "This is What You Came For" music video (how can we forget all the hairography!), however Zayn has a shockingly dark mop of brown hair. Therefore, I would expect the child's hair to be a blend of the two, that leans more closer to a similar coloring of its fathers, making it a medium shade of brown.
2. Eye Color
This is where things get interesting. Gigi eyes are a bright blue-green (in fact, her entire family has lighter eyes), which makes me think that she is dominant for blue-eyed gene and there would be a high probability of her child having blue eyes. However, because of Zayn's dark brown eyes, it really comes down to his genetic composition: if he is a carrier for a blue-eyed gene that was received from his parents, then there is a possibility that the baby may have blue eyes. However, if he does not possess the blue-eyed gene, then there is really very little chance of the baby having an eye color that is other than brown.
3. Height
While Zayn stands at an average male height of 5' 9", Gigi towers well above the average female at a whopping 5' 10". However, females tend to follow their mom's height, so if Gigi has a girl, I would be inclined to guess that the daughter would also be fairly tall for a female. However, if it is a boy, I would predict that it would grow to a similar height as both of them, which wouldn't make him that strikingly tall for a male.
So, there you have it: my prediction for what Gigi and Zayn's baby is going to look like. Although I had fun envisioning the genetic makeup of their child, none of us will truly know what he/she will look like until they are born. However, I think we can all agree that it is going to be a beautiful child.
