International supermodel Gigi Hadid was arrested shortly after she and her friends arrived in the Cayman Islands via a private plane on July 10, 2023.
International supermodel Gigi Hadid was arrested and fined in the Cayman Islands after border security agents discovered a small amount of marijuana in her luggage.
Hadid, who has since been released, was arrested shortly after she arrived in the tropical British territory via private plane on July 10.
Rolling Stone verified news of the model’s arrest and reported that Hadid, 28, was fined US$1,000 (nearly C$1,300).
Customs and Border Control agents allegedly discovered “ganja and utensils used for the consumption of ganja” in Hadid’s luggage, according to the local news outlet Cayman Marl Road.
Authorities said the amount of marijuana seized was “relatively small” and likely to be used for personal consumption.
Hadid and her friend Leah Nicole McCarthy, who also had a small amount of marijuana and gear in her bag, were both arrested on suspicion of “Importation of Ganja and Importation of Utensils used for the consumption of ganja.”
The two women were transported to the Prisoner Detention Center but were shortly after released on bail.
Hadid and McCarthy appeared in court on July 12 to pay the $1,000 fine. TMZ reported there will be no conviction on Hadid’s record.
