Gigi Hadid's experience of motherhood has changed her attitude towards her career.

The 29-year-old model recently starred at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, and Gigi admitted that being a mom has changed her attitude towards the event.

Gigi - who has daughter Khai, four, with ex-partner Zayn Malik - told 'Extra': "I think also being a mom and just appreciating the time that I get to work and prioritise the jobs that I really want to do … There’s more focus on being present and really taking it all in like what does it smell like, look around, don't black out at the end of the runway, remember what you're doing and really be there."

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in New York featured musical performances from Cher, Tyla and BLACKPINK's Lisa, while the likes of Ashley Graham, Valentina Sampaio and Bella Hadid - Gigi's sister - also walked the runway.

Gigi relished the experience of appearing at the iconic show after a lengthy hiatus.

She shared: "It's just really great.

"Like, there's so many women that I've grown up in this industry with and have known through different chapters of my career, there's girls that I watched in the show when I was still in high school and was such a fan of them, and it's really fun now because Victoria’s Secret is really being run by and led by women."

Gigi previously admitted that she loves being a mom.

The model told the Sunday Times newspaper: "She has already given me so much. I always wanted to be a mom, but I was never obsessive about it or [thought that] I was put on this Earth to be a mom."

Gigi also thinks she had a baby at the perfect time in her life.

She said: "I've always been quite organised, so having Khai at the time that I did was a blessing. I'm so glad to be a young mom."
