Gigi Hadid’s ex-boyfriend Tyler Cameron has given his two cents on the supermodel’s pregnancy, following their split last year.

Last week, the 25-year-old confirmed that she is pregnant with her first child, days after rumours circulated that she was to become a parent with her on/off boyfriend of five years, Zayn Malik.

During her year-long split from Malik last year, Hadid began a short-lived romance with Cameron in August, with the former Bachelorette star joining the model at her grandmother’s funeral in the Netherlands last September.

‘She is going to be the most incredible mother,’ Cameron recently told ESPN West Palm. ‘She’s a caring, sweet person, and she’s going to be amazing.’

The 27-year-old added that he is ‘very excited for her’.

Cameron’s comments come days after he shut down rumours that he was the father of Gigi’s unborn child. ‘Y’all are wrong in the comments. Y’all are terrible,’ he said during an Instagram Live in response to suggestions that he was the child’s father, and not Malik.

On Friday, the Californian model confirmed her pregnant and opened up about her food cravings during an interview on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

'Obviously, you know, we wish we could’ve announced it on our own terms, but we’re very excited and happy and grateful for everyone’s well wishes and support so...' she stated.

‘I’m trying [to be present for every part of it],’ she continued. ‘Especially during this time, it’s a nice silver lining to be able to be home and together and really experience it.’

Hadid revealed that she’s craving bagels and is averaging one serving of the doughy breakfast menu staple every day.

A day before her pregnancy confirmation, Hadid’s mother Yolanda said that she ‘can't wait to become a grandmother’.

'It is quite special, since I lost my own mother so recently. That is the beauty of life: one soul is leaving us and another is coming. We feel very blessed,’ she told RTL Boulevard.
