Yolanda, Bella Hadid have made Fort Worth their new home

 

The Hadids are becoming resident Texans, y’all.

FORT WORTH, Texas — Cowtown is bringing Hollywood to them. 

It’s no secret that Fort Worth has become a destination for numerous TV and film industry projects, most notably Taylor Sheridan’s “Yellowstone” and its many breakout shows. 

But now, the allure of the cowboy life in Cowtown is attracting the stars of Los Angeles. 

Yolanda Hadid, known for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, told Architectural Digest in an exclusive interview that she and her fiancé Joseph Jingoli had moved to the Fort Worth area in a single-story, horseshoe-shaped home overlooking a river. Hadid told the magazine they made Texas their home base after attending a horse show in Fort Worth. 

“That trip was really my first introduction to Texas,” Hadid told Architectural Digest. “We went straight to Fort Worth, where there was a huge horse show with hundreds and hundreds of real, authentic cowboys. It was like being dropped right into a Western movie.”

Donning a white button down T-shirt and tan cowgirl hat, she gave the magazine a tour of their Lone Star lounge, which was published on Aug. 29.

One of the features Hadid noted in the home is the “honey bar” where she collects jars she finds through her travels.

It’s unclear when Hadid and her fiancé moved to North Texas, but she isn’t the only one in her family who was tempted by Texas. Hadid’s supermodel daughter, Bella, also has moved to the Fort Worth area after stepping away from the modeling world. Bella Hadid told Allure in April she moved to Texas after she realized the fashion industry was no longer serving her.

“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,” Hadid said in the Allure interview.

Bella Hadid’s cowboy boyfriend, Adan Banuelos, posted in April about her competing in a Fort Worth equestrian and cutting horse competition. 

In the Architectural Digest exclusive, Yolanda Hadid said she mapped out the ideas and inspiration for their new Cowtown home and enlisted Weatherford-based contractor S&B Construction to help bring her drawings to life. What yielded was the single-story, horseshoe-shaped dwelling with a stone exterior and an industrial modern interior that pays homage to Western horse culture.
