Gigi Hadid is reflecting on her bond with a late friend.
Shortly after Anne Burrell died in her home at age 55 on June 17, the supermodel shared a heartwarming tribute to the Food Network star, who she teamed up with for the cooking competition series Beat Bobby Flay in 2023.
In a photo from their joint TV appearance posted to her Instagram Story June 17, Gigi—wearing a maroon sweater and her hair pulled back in a sleek ponytail—sat a table next to Anne, who sported a V-neck shirt, patterned scarf and bleached blond mohawk. As Anne appeared to speak, the model smiled warmly at her.
“I am heartbroken to hear of the loss of the Great Anne Burrell,” Gigi wrote atop the image. “As a longtime fan, getting to share this day with her was a dream come true.”
The 30-year-old went on to describe just how special their time together was, recalling that they were able to “beat Bobby,” “hang” and “eat” during the shoot.
“I wish we could have done it again,” Gigi continued. “She was awesome.”
The Guests in Residence founder added, “Rest in Peace Legend.”
