Sara Foster Discusses Her Bond with Gigi and Bella Hadid Post-Divorce
Sara Foster maintains a close relationship with Gigi Hadid and Bella Hadid, despite being former stepsisters in the glamorous world of Beverly Hills.
Nearly a decade after David Foster and Yolanda Hadid ended their nine-year marriage, the trio remains connected. On the July 9 episode of Watch What Happens Live, Sara expressed her affection for Gigi and Bella, mentioning a recent meeting with Gigi just last month.
While Sara is uncertain about the current dynamics between her father and Yolanda, she emphasized that David, now married to Katharine McPhee since 2019, holds no resentment towards Gigi or Bella. "He was actively involved in raising them," Sara shared, highlighting the enduring love within their blended family.
Blended Families and Lasting Connections
Sara and her sister Erin Foster integrated their families with the Hadids and their half-siblings Anwar Hadid, Brody Jenner, and Brandon Jenner when David and Yolanda married in 2011. The dissolution of their marriage in 2017 did not sever these familial bonds.
Erin Foster's Perspective
Erin, co-creator of Nobody Wants This, believes that children are unaffected by their parents' divorce, stating, "Just the parents go through the separation, not the kids." She also reflected on her early childhood experiences with her stepbrothers, Brandon and Brody, emphasizing the challenges of blending families.
The Foster Family Dynamics
David Foster, a renowned musician and producer, cherishes his role as a father to six children. In a 2022 interview with People, he expressed his joy in fatherhood, especially with the arrival of his youngest child, Rennie, at 71. David's fifth marriage is to Katharine McPhee, and he has openly discussed his past relationships and growth as a parent and individual.
David's eldest child, Allison Jones, now serves as the Director for The David Foster Foundation, balancing her professional life with her family in Edmonton, Alberta.
Amy S. Foster, David's daughter from his first marriage to B.J. Cook, has made a name for herself in the music industry, writing songs for prominent artists and managing her own ventures. She maintains a strong bond with her father, countering any misconceptions about abandonment.
On the other side, Sara Foster has built a multifaceted career alongside her sister Erin, including roles in Barely Famous, entrepreneurial projects like Favorite Daughter, and acting in various productions. Sara is also navigating motherhood with her daughters, Valentina and Josephine.
Erin and Jordan Foster
Erin continues to expand her creative endeavors, recently welcoming her daughter Noa Mimi Tikhman. Meanwhile, Jordan Foster thrives in the fashion industry as the Style Director for Favorite Daughter and balances her professional and personal life with her husband.
Linda Thompson and the Jenner Connection
Linda Thompson, formerly married to Caitlyn Jenner, has a rich history with several notable relationships. Her marriage to David Foster in 1991 connected the Foster family with the Jenner-Kardashian clan, creating a complex web of familial ties.
Linda and David's partnership produced two sons, Brandon and Brody Jenner, who have made their marks in reality television. Their collaboration on projects like The Princes of Malibu highlights the intertwined lives of these high-profile families.
Despite their eventual divorce in 2005, the Foster-Hadid-Jenner relationships continue to evolve, reflecting the enduring bonds and shared histories of these influential families.
