AceShowbiz - At 27, Bella Hadid, renowned for her illustrious modeling career, has taken a step back to reevaluate what truly matters. In an eye-opening interview with Allure published on April 30, Hadid shares her refreshing perspective on life post-moving to Texas with her partner, Adan Banuelos, 35.
This relocation symbolizes more than just a change of scenery; it represents Hadid's shift towards prioritizing her happiness and well-being, a stance that's resonating with many.
Hadid's journey of self-discovery comes after a decade in the modeling industry, where despite her success, she felt a disproportionate balance of give and take. "After 10 years of modeling, I realized I was putting so much energy and love and effort into something that, in the long run, wasn't necessarily giving it back to me," she explained.
This revelation has led her to pare back on modeling commitments to concentrate on what genuinely fulfills her.
The allure of Texas isn't just its vast landscapes but the genuine connections and simpler lifestyle it offers. Hadid describes forging meaningful friendships and experiencing a newfound authenticity in her interactions.
"For the first time now, I'm not putting on a fake face. If I don't feel good, I won't go. If I don't feel good, I take time for myself," she said. Her move also signifies a victory in her personal health battle, triumphantly announcing she is "finally healthy" after enduring "100+ days of Lyme, chronic disease, [co-infection] treatment [and] almost 15 years of invisible suffering."
Embracing her entrepreneurial spirit, Hadid is set to launch her first fragrance collection named Orebella. Described as the "skinification of fragrance," this three-scent lineup is designed for direct skin application, inspired by Hadid's passion for essential oils and bespoke scent creation.
It is a project born from her love for unique and personal elements, transforming her passion into a tangible product she is eager to share with the world.
From conquering the fashion runways to tackling Lyme disease and now venturing into the world of fragrances, Bella Hadid's evolution is a testament to her resilience and determination to lead a life marked by authenticity, health, and happiness.
For young people witnessing her journey, Hadid exemplifies the courage it takes to pivot towards a path that truly resonates with one's essence and aspirations.
