The 18-year-old beauty is the daughter of Gigi and Bella's mum Yolanda's brother Leo van den Henrik.

She already has legions of fans on Instagram, where she posts snaps with her famous family and she bares a striking resemblance to her cousin Gigi.

Joann is a UK size 12 and often uploads pictures of herself in underwear and promotes body confidence.

And her pictures seem to have caught the eye of modelling bosses and she has now signed a deal with London-based agency 12+ UK Model Management.

One of the stand out pictures on her feed shows Joann posing in her underwear while talking about her "flaws".

In the caption of the unfiltered snap, she wrote: "I wanted to show you guys that I'm imperfect too. I have fatrolls, I have stretch marks.

"It's so easy to look in the mirror and feel disgusted by the things you don't like, but I don't want to do that anymore.

Joann also promotes body confidence and posts unfiltered snaps in her underwear

"I don't wanna hide my "ugly" side, I want to show it more often, because I've accepted it."

However, in a YouTube video, Joann admitted it took her a long time to feel confident about her body.

She explained: "I've been feeling bad about myself for a long time. This isn't how it's supposed to be.

"Girls and boys are not supposed to feel this way. You have to wear what you like, you have to eat what you want. If you love yourself it doesn't matter what other people think."

Joann often posts pictures and praises the success of her two older model cousins

In her other social media posts, she also praises her famous cousins for their modelling success.

But the trio aren't the only members of the Hadid family involved in the fashion industry.

Gigi and Bella's little brother Anwar has walked in shows for Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger. While their older half-sister Alana works as a stylist.
