The source went on to note that Hadid will ‘get back out into the dating scene when the time is right, but for now she’s happy on her own.’
Previously, the bombshell dated The Weeknd on and off from 2015 to 2019.
Over the years, she has also been romantically linked to NFL star Odell Beckham Jr. and rapper Drake.
Earlier this month, an insider, close to Hadid, revealed to ET that they parted ways ahead of the summer, and she is currently ‘getting daily treatment for her Lyme disease.’
The former couple reportedly met through work in New York City, in 2020, but waited until the following summer to confirm their romance on social media.
On July 8, 2021, the Kin Euphorics cofounder shared a sweet photo packing on the PDA with the art director, who worked with rapper Travis Scott for years.
At the time, E! News reported that they were already ‘serious’ and she is ‘has been excited to be seen with him’ in public after keeping their romance private for a year.
‘He has been the creative behind many fashion projects and they have crossed paths several times,’ the source revealed.

Additionally, her mom, Yolanda, and older sister, Gigi Hadid and the rest of her family all ‘approved and loved him.’
During a chat with Interview Magazine, Bella said she felt ‘super comfortable and feel very safe with Marc’ and referred to him as her ’emotional support bunny.’
As for his work as a photographer, she gushed that he ‘is incredibly talented at everything he does.’
While Bella rarely spoke about their relationship in public, she credited keeping their romance out of the spotlight for ‘why things have been able to last.’
‘When you give other people room to have opinions on things that are so personal to you, it poisons it,’ Bella told Vogue in 2022.
Following the end of their nearly three-year romance, Hadid has been focused on her health.
Hadid originally contracted the tick-borne illness back, in 2012, presumably, while at their horse ranch in Santa Barbara.

Before officially being diagnosed with Lyme at age 16 – the DC-born, Malibu-raised beauty was incorrectly diagnosed with ADHD at age 14 and began self-medicating at age 15 because she was ‘so depressed and sick.’
Bella – who started homeschooling and stopped riding horses due to brain fog – said no one believed she was chronically ill except for her mother Yolanda Hadid, who was diagnosed with Lyme the same year in 2012.
The 59-year-old former Ford Model detailed her journey seeing ‘106 doctors’ and undergoing a Stem Cell transplant, Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, Chelation therapy, colon hydrotherapy, among other treatments in her 2017 book Believe Me.
‘After many misdiagnosis for two years, she started driving me anywhere and everywhere on our own, sick herself, to find the doctors that could heal me. I just turned 15/16 I think,’ Hadid recalled.
‘I was already doing IVs and random holistic treatments here and there, but just things that felt like a Band-Aid to me. My first Lyme treatment that I remember where the doctors actually could treat me and tell me what was wrong with me was in Reno at University of Nevada and a year or two later, my mom drove the both of us, sick herself, across the border to Tijuana, Mexico. To the kindest small town doctor.
‘After that, over the years, the flood gates opened and Lyme started to be more visible through blood and Kinesiology. My mom’s book actually talks about all of the treatments I did, and about what it looked like for her baby to be sick like her, it’s just a bit traumatizing for me to read now.’

Back in 2017, Bella told InStyle that that she took ’30 pills’ and self-administered ‘two shots a day in the keester’ to properly function with Lyme disease.
Ahead of her diagnosis, the model said she thought ‘going out and being with my friends would make’ her ‘feel better, but it didn’t.’
‘Now I feel like a grandma. I’ll go out occasionally, but I’d rather go to work and have 100 percent energy, because I barely have enough to get through the day as it is,’ she admitted.
In April, she told her Instagram followers that ‘any minor trauma to the body’ can cause her Lyme disease to flare up.

After suffering from a tooth infection, she revealed that her jaw became ‘so inflamed’ and her illness tends to ‘flare-up/inflame randomly when’ she is ‘overly stressed or overworking.’
‘Lyme flare-ups happen all the time,’ she explained. ‘Some days it’s okay! And some days are difficult.’
Other symptoms of her Lyme disease include her skin changing color, breakouts that feel like ‘lesions,’ lethargy, chronic anxiety, zero motivation or purpose, leaky gut, adrenals and depression.’
Additionally, Bella said she ‘hates looking in the mirror or taking pictures’ because of how symptoms dramatically affect her appearance.
‘If I’m all dolled up, maybe I’ll try for the girls but, man, is it hard to do this as your profession while also feeling/looking sick like this,’ she confessed on TikTok.
