Gigi Hadid had a rocky start to her summer vacation.
The supermodel was on a girls’ trip to the Cayman Islands on July 10 when she was arrested at Owen Roberts International Airport. E! News has learned.
Local outlet Cayman Marl Road reported that shortly after Hadid and her pal arrived on a private plane, customs officials allegedly found “ganja and paraphernalia for consuming ganja” in their luggage.
Hadid and her friend were then arrested on “suspicion of importing ganja and importing paraphernalia used for ganja consumption,” the outlet reports, adding that they were subsequently taken to the detention center, where they were released on bail .
Two days later, on July 12, Hadid and her pal were formally charged during a court hearing where they pleaded guilty and were both fined $1,000, according to Cayman Marl Road. They face no charges.
“Gigi was traveling with marijuana that was legally purchased in NYC with a medical license,” her rep tells E! News. “Since 2017 it has also been legal for medicinal purposes in Grand Cayman. Her record remains strong and she has enjoyed the rest of her time on the island.”
E! News has contacted the authorities and received no response.
