Bella Hadid turns 30 with intimate visual memoir, revealing life beyond the runway

Turning 30 is often seen as a major milestone, a moment of stepping into a new phase of life while leaving behind the turbulence of the twenties. For Bella Hadid, however, the transition comes with a creative reflection rather than hesitation.

The supermodel and entrepreneur is set to release a memoir on her 30th birthday, offering a deeply personal look at her life so far. Published with Rizzoli, the project is not a traditional written memoir but a visual one, combining photography, handwritten notes, text messages, and candid personal archives.

The memoir traces Bella’s journey from her carefree childhood in Malibu to her rise as one of the most recognisable faces in fashion. Told through a dual perspective, it blends her personal voice with Yasmine’s photography, offering an intimate look at moments often unseen by the public.

Bella opens up about her family relationships, personal identity, creative expression, mental health advocacy, and her ongoing experience living with chronic illness. These reflections add depth to her public image, showing the challenges behind her career in the fashion industry.
