Gigi Hadid "Sick to My Stomach" Over Epstein Files Mention
PUBLISHED Aug 30, 2026, 10:49 AM ET
Supermodel Gigi Hadid expressed deep dismay after her name appeared within court records released from the civil litigation surrounding late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The thirty-one-year-old fashion figure posted and later removed a social media comment stating she felt sick to her stomach upon discovering the reference. Hadid firmly stated that she has never met or maintained any affiliation with Epstein, describing the association as entirely false and distressing. The document release forms part of a court-ordered unsealing process overseen by federal judges, which has swept in numerous public figures, entertainers, and executives mentioned across investigative logs, depositions, and address books. Legal experts note that appearing within such collateral evidentiary files does not imply wrongdoing or personal acquaintance, as investigators routinely compiled extensive raw data referencing individuals. Hadid's prompt public denial reflects broader celebrity sensitivity toward reputational damage stemming from tangential document disclosures.
