Out and about: His daughter Gigi Hadid welcomed daughter Khai with partner Zayn Malik on September 20, 2020. And just weeks after his granddaughter turned four months old, Mohamed Hadid was spotted stepping out with a mystery woman on Monday in Beverly Hills at II Pastaio as LA resumed outdoor dining amid the COVID-19 pandemic

The father of five and grandfather of two cut a casual figure in all black, adding a coordinating leather jacket and face mask. 

His pretty lunch companion donned a black pencil skirt with a matching top and a pastel hued jacket with tights and a face mask.

The duo were enjoying outdoor dining, which was reinstated last week as the state rolled back its stay-at home order; only takeout and delivery service were previously allowed. 

LA County banned outdoor dining in late November due to skyrocketing cases of COVID-19 with Governor Gavin Newsom also implementing a stay-at-home order in December.
