So brace yourself, but Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid are actually related. Yes, technically the good looking duo are family...kinda.

In the TikTok video that explains all, Kendall can be seen explaining to the camera how she and Gigi are loosely related.

The person holding the camera asks Kendall, "In as few a words as possible, can you explain to me how you are related to Gigi?"

Watch the video here:

Kendall responds laughing as she explains the family connection. She said: "So her stepdad is my half-brother's stepdad...ex stepdad...does that make sense?"

In a word: No.

So let's break this down.

Kendall Jenner tried to explain how she and Gigi are related...(

Gigi Hadid’s mother Yolanda married David Foster in 2011 (before later divorcing him in 2017), but before this he was married to Linda Thompson from 1991 to 2005. Before Linda married David, she was married to Bruce Jenner (who later transitioned to be Caitlyn Jenner) from 1981 to 1986 and they had two sons Brody and Brandon Jenner, who are Kendall's half brothers.

Complicated? Yep you bet.

Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner have often worked together, but it turns out they are family too. (

Or another way of looking at it, Kendall's half brothers from her dad's side had David Foster as a stepdad before he then went on to be Gigi Hadid's stepdad six years later.

Hollywood is known for having close relationships, but even this has confused most people. When the video showing the six degrees of separation aired on TikTok, many users were left scratching their heads.

Kendall was seen on TikTok trying to explain the 'loose' family connection. (

One user just couldn't see the connection at all, commenting: "If it’s step and ex then they are not at all"

However some people thought it was quite simple to understand.

One user made it much clearer than Kendall had, writing: "Its not that hard lmao her half brothers mom and gigi’s mom were married to the same man at different times."

Ohhh now we get it.
