Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik's families have been celebrating the religious festival of Eid al-Adha together, posting photos on Instagram of their joint celebrations.

Hadid's mother Yolanda Hadid posted a photo of herself alongside Hadid, Malik, and his mother Trisha Malik.

Eid al-Adha is one of the holy days of Islam and is celebrated with prayer, food and gifts with family and friends. 

Hadid's family is Muslim from her father's side, with her Palestinian-American father telling The Radar People that while he's not a devout Muslim "he is very proud of his heritage".

Malik is also Muslim through his parents; his father is British-Pakistani and his mother converted to Islam when they met.

It's clear the families of the supermodel and the Still Got Time singer are close.  Earlier this year Hadid told Vogue that Malik's mother's kitchen is her "favourite restaurant in the world" and Hadid's mother recently posted a snap of the couple, describing Malik as "family".

Trisha Malik may have caused a flurry interest with her latest snap though, the photo appearing to show her son with a completely shaven head.
