Bella Hadid hailed as the ‘queen’ of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show as she makes red hot return
Bella Hadid made a splash on the catwalk at the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on Tuesday evening.
The 28-year-old bombshell – who is dating cowboy Adan Banuelos – showed off her fit figure in a red bra and underwear, topped off with a huge red fur coat.
Hadid, whose sister Gigi Hadid also walked in the comeback show, showed off her megawatt smile as she stormed the catwalk in red strappy heels.
She closed the show as Cher performed her 1998 hit Believe.
The VS show marks Bella’s second return to the catwalk after a two-year break from modeling.

The beauty recently walked the Saint Laurent Womenswear Spring-Summer 2025 show as part of Paris Fashion Week.
It was her first runway appearance since October 2022. And she last walked for Victoria’s Secret in 2018, the brand’s final show.
Bella has told me before To tempt end of April: ‘After ten years of modeling, I realized that I was putting so much energy, love and effort into something that I wasn’t necessarily getting it back in the long run.’
For Tuesday’s triumphant return, the supermodel wore her glossy dark hair parted in the middle and ironed straight.
Seeing her take the stage, fans flocked to social media to praise Bella’s homecoming.
“Miss Bella Hadid, the people’s princess,” someone wrote on X.
Hadid received a warm greeting from a fan who wrote online: “welcome back queen bella hadid.”
Another person said: ‘The beautiful face, the beautiful red fur she wears on her shoulders, the smile and the red clothes make her slay the Victoria’s Secret stage.’

Victoria’s Secret made its runway debut in 1995, when Tyra Banks took the stage three years later wearing the first set of angel wings.
Ed Razek, former head of marketing for VS’s parent company L Brands, once described the runway show as a “fantasy,” with transgender and plus-size models excluded from the “42-minute entertainment special.”
The controversial statement landed the brand in hot water and led to Razek’s resignation in 2019 and the show’s cancellation due to backlash and poor ratings.
Victoria’s Secret then pivoted to promote diversity by including larger models in subsequent campaigns.
Valentina Sampaio, the company’s first transgender model, was also hired to star in a VS Pink campaign after Razek’s departure.
