In July, Hailey revealed she’s no longer “super close” with her famous family, telling W Magazine in a cover story that she feels like the distance is because she’s “very independent.”

“I’m my own individual now, and I’ve built my own family,” the model, 27, added at the time, noting that she still has “very fond, beautiful memories” growing up with a “fairly normal childhood.”

Shortly after, her dad seemingly responded to her public slighting with a selfie video that appeared to address Hailey’s comments in the caption.
