And throughout lockdown, pregnant Gigi kept busy and satisfied her cravings with an array of mouth-watering recipes she shared frequently on Instagram Stories.
One of the recipes, which fans often recreate on TikTok, is a creamy pasta in a vodka sauce which she made a few months ago 'for two' – AKA for her and boyfriend Zayn Malik.
The saucy dish quickly went viral when Gigi first posted it, and a number of TikTok videos have since surfaced as budding cooks recreate what has become a hugely popular dish created by the model.
When she shared a tutorial of how to make the dish, Gigi showed fans the step by step instructions, admitting she didn’t use vodka that time around but she usually adds a splash.
She also showed the homemade focaccia bread which she served up with a balsamic vinegar and olive oil and a charcuterie board.
Later on in quarantine, Gigi whipped up monkey bread, a cinnamon-covered dough sprinkled with cinnamon sugar beneath a sticky, sweet sauce.
Proving she’s a fan of Great British Bake Off, the supermodel also spent one morning making 2015 winner Nadiya Hussain’s peanut butter and jelly traybake.
