Gigi Hadid has increased her personal security in the wake of Kim Kardashian's robbery.

Model Gigi Hadid has reportedly beefed up her security detail in the wake of Kim Kardashian’s robbery.

A source told People magazine the 21-year-old model was seen leaving a fashion show with a larger entourage than usual.

“It looks like she has added two more bodyguards to her entourage,” the source said.

“She left this afternoon’s Giambattista Valli show with what appears an enforced detail of three personnel.”

Considering the seriousness of Kim’s robbery the addition of security doesn’t come as the greatest surprise.

Hadid has otherwise maintained her modelling schedule since the news of Kardashian’s ordeal broke yesterday, with appearances along the Parisian runways.

The business-as-usual approach is somewhat surprising, considering it has barely been a week since the model was grabbed from behind and picked up by a strange man.

Hadid’s attacker was the same self-described “prankster” who went on to attempt to “kiss” Kardashian’s bottom.

As shown in footage of the incident, Hadid delivered a swift elbow to the face of the man who grabbed her, freeing herself from his grasp in seconds before being separated from him by her security personnel.

The prankster’s attempt to touch Kardashian was foiled by her security guard, who brought him to the ground in seconds.
