When you’re navigating pregnancy during a pandemic, you’ve got no time for negative energy. Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik, who are expecting a baby girl together, showed off their matching diamond-studded evil eye bracelets over the weekend.

Designed by celebrity favorite George Khalife, aka “George the Jeweler,” the superstar couple’s precious pieces are crafted from 14K gold, feature roughly 0.20 carats of diamonds and are available online for $275 each.

Khalife, who previously created a sparkling “Zayn” necklace for 25-year-old Hadid along with one featuring the model’s own last name in Arabic, told Page Six Style that he was inspired to send over the symbolic trinkets after calling Hadid to congratulate her on the big news.

I don’t know how exactly the evil eye came up, but I think I maybe mentioned it and she was like, ‘That’s so funny, we were just talking about pulling out some evil eyes,'” the jeweler recalled.

We’re all Middle Eastern, so in our culture we believe they ward away jealousy and keep haters away. And you know everybody’s going to be talking about them  — all eyes on them,” Khalife continued. “So I was like, ‘Don’t worry, I got you.'

The Hollywood jeweler, who added that he wears the same bracelet himself (“It’s my favorite,” he told us), hopes the sparkling style helps Hadid and Malik, 27, through the challenges that lie ahead.

I feel like times like this are just very emotional — there’s so much going on,” Khalife said. “I think they need to look at those bracelets as a reminder to not let the negative energy affect them.

These famous parents-to-be aren’t the only stars sporting evil eye jewelry lately. Just last week, Meghan Markle made a surprise appearance on a charity video call while sporting Edge of Ember’s Visionary Charm Necklace ($175), which features the same meaningful motif.
