Remember when we discovered the lost (as in not yet world-famous) Kar-Jenner cousin? Well, this might be even more momentous a celebrity relative reveal. Get this: Bella and Gigi Hadid have a gorgeous look-alike cousin who (like literally every member of her extended family) also models.

World, meet Joann van den Herik, daughter to Leo van den Herik, niece to Yolanda Hadid, cousin to Gigi, Bella, and Anwar.

Today I reached 30k!!! 30.000 of you already, that's insane. It's such a big deal for me, because knowing that you support me is just the best thing ever. I'm so thankful for all the sweet messages I get from you every single day, you guys make my life a little happier :). I know you all say that I inspire you and that I make you feel confident about yourself, but you all do the same for me. I used to be sooo insecure about myself, that it made me depressed and lonely. It really made me go crazy, because I was so OBSESSED with appearances and comparing myself to everyone. I felt so unworthy. But partly because of you, I feel good enough again. Making you guys feel confident and good about yourself, makes me confident and feel good about myself. I love that I can tell my story to others and inspire them to love themselves. I wish I'd had a stranger telling me that when I was younger. It's so important to support each other and lift other people up and that's literally the only thing I want to do through my instagram. I want people to love themselves and to accept themselves, and to love and accept other people. Everyone may be different from each other, but everyone is worthy of being treated with love and respect, that means treating yourself with love and respect too ?? Thank you so so so much for 30k, and because I want to show it to you, you can get 15% off on @yourfashionstorynl with my code "Joann15". I LOVE YOU GUYS!! #30k #LOVEYOURSELF #EMBRACEYOURSELF PS the second photo was my reaction when I found out I reached 30k ????????

The family resemblance is hard to miss!

Joann sees the Hadids occasionally, though she’s always quick to note how much she misses her in-demand cousins.

I got you ?? #FamilyFirst

In addition to modeling, Joann also shares her inspiring body positivity with her 31,000 Instagram followers, emphasizing the importance of embracing your every curve.

I was afraid to post this picture and that's why I did post it. I could've cropped it so you wouldn't see any fat, but I didn't. 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. I don't wanna hide my "ugly" side, I want to show it more often, because I've accepted it. I love my body. Guys and girls, it doesn't matter if you don't have a sixpack, or a size zero. You're just as beautiful as everyone. Don't try to compare or compete with others, your body is a temple which you should care and love for. Don't let your mind bully your body. Nowadays, people make it feel like it's a shame to be fat and that if you're not a size 0, you shouldn't show your body. F* them!!! Show your body, love your body, embrace your body no matter what size you are. Your body loves YOU, so love it back ?? #CelebrateMySize #LoveYourBody #EmbraceYourCurves photo by @rachelkeijzerphotography

I used to be very insecure about my body, about myself, and to be honest I still am. I'm on this journey to accept myself the way I am and to work hard for all the things I still want to achieve. Thanks to every single one of you who helps me with that and makes me feel good about myself in every single way. I want to be able to do the same thing for you, too. Boys and girls rock your body, it's a holy temple which you should be proud of. Thick, thin, fat, normal, WHATEVER SIZE YOU ARE, YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO LOVE YOURSELF ???????? #LoveYourself #EmbraceYourCurves

Watch out, Gigi and Bella, Joann and Lizzy have Hadid-level potential! We’re positive this isn’t the last we’ll see from the van den Heriks girls …
