Where Do David Foster And Yolanda Hadid's Kids Stand Now Years After Their Split?
When former reality star Yolanda Hadid divorced music mogul David Foster in 2017, the two ceased all communication, but their children seemingly remained in touch. Yolanda and David wed in 2011, just a year before she joined "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" cast. The two quickly became one, bringing together a blended family with three children from Yolanda's marriage to Mohammed Hadid — Gigi, Bella, and Anwar Hadid — and five daughters from David's former relationships, including Sara and Erin Foster.
During an appearance on "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen," in October 2024, Sara revealed she still keeps up with her former stepsister Gigi Hadid after a viewer asked, "When [was] the last time you talked with your stepsisters Gigi or Bella Hadid, and did you watch Gigi recently open the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show?" Sara then specified, "Gigi and I stay in touch," noting that they spoke about a month beforehand.
The "Barely Famous" star didn't watch Gigi's modeling performance live, but saw pictures of the model online and thought she looked absolutely stunning. As Sara discussed Gigi's most recent fashion show appearance, Cohen inquired about the last time she had communicated with her former stepmother, Yolanda. Sara admitted that, although it had "been a minute" since they spoke, "I'd be happy to run into her [...] absolutely."
There were issues blending the two families
During Yolanda Hadid's time on "RHOBH," David Foster made a handful of appearances, and the celebrity couple displayed what seemed to be a strong marriage and an even more solid friendship. The sixth season of the reality show documented a steep decline in Yolanda's health due to Lyme Disease, which many believe contributed to the demise of her relationship with the music icon. E! News also reported that the two struggled to blend their families, putting an additional strain on them. As a source close to the family explained, "Bringing two sets of children together wasn't always easy," adding, "At one point, Yolanda was close to David's daughters, but things have changed."
When the couple divorced, the multiple Grammy winner claimed that he upheld a good relationship with his stepchildren. David informed the Daily Mail in 2017 that, "Divorce puts a strain on everybody, yeah, but Gigi and Bella are doing amazing and they're so busy that I don't talk to them much but we do text, yeah, we're still good." His daughter, Erin Foster, also shared on a September 2024 episode of "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen" that she remains in touch with her former stepsisters, stating simply, "The kids don't get divorced, just the parents do." David later remarried for the fifth time to actor Katherine McPhee while Yolanda is engaged to construction CEO Joseph Jingoli.
