Yolanda Hadid Splits from Fiancé Joey Jingoli—But What Happens to Her Texas Dream Ranch?

Yolanda Hadid has reportedly ended her engagement to longtime partner Joey Jingoli, closing the chapter on a six-year relationship that saw the former model and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum trade in the rolling green pastures of Pennsylvania for a sweeping Texas ranch. According to People, the split actually happened back in January, but the couple kept it under wraps. Now, it’s out in the open—and fans are wondering what this means for Yolanda’s future.

An insider said that while the relationship has ended, Yolanda and Joey still care for each other and remain on good terms. “They remain friends and have nothing but fond memories of their time together,” the source shared. But ending a relationship after building a home—and a life—together raises big questions, especially when that home is a stunning ranch designed down to the last detail by Yolanda herself.

A Move to Texas Fueled by Love

Yolanda first met Joey Jingoli in 2017 when she was still living in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. They didn’t start dating until two years later, but it didn’t take long for the romance to take root. She fell in love not only with the man, but with his world—one filled with horses, cowboy boots, and wide Texas skies.

The move to Texas didn’t just happen overnight. Yolanda began splitting her time between Pennsylvania and Texas, but eventually, love led her to relocate full-time to the Lone Star State. The couple got engaged in 2022, though Yolanda kept it quiet until her 2024 Architectural Digest home tour, where she casually confirmed the news while giving viewers a peek inside the dream ranch she built with Joey.

Inside the Ranch That Became Her Passion Project

The Texas home Yolanda designed wasn’t just a house—it was a lifestyle. From the moment she stepped foot in Fort Worth, she was smitten with its cowboy culture. “I love the culture,” she said in her AD interview. “The people are extraordinary.”

So she set out to create her own rustic sanctuary. The ranch is a masterclass in warm, modern design with a twist of Western charm. Her bedroom features a huge picture window overlooking a serene lake. The walk-in closet is exactly what you’d expect from a former supermodel—floor-to-ceiling glass-and-wood shelving, cozy chairs, and that boutique touch that makes it more of a living space than just storage.

The bathroom isn’t far behind in terms of design luxury. It features a massive stone tub, shared glass shower, and double vanities—all set in a palette that’s both earthy and elevated.

Family at the Heart of Every Room

Yolanda’s family clearly shaped how she designed the home. There’s a bunk bedroom she created with her granddaughter Khai in mind. “I just wanted to make her something really cute,” she said of Gigi Hadid’s daughter. The bunks make room for Khai’s friends and, potentially, more grandchildren in the future.

In the powder room, one wall is covered in magazine covers featuring her children—Gigi, Bella, and Anwar—cementing her pride in the modeling dynasty she helped build. The kitchen, too, tells a story of family and function, with a massive island meant for gathering, conversation, and casual meals. One of the most unique features? A honey bar.

Yes, a honey bar. Yolanda had originally considered putting in a tequila bar, but given that Joey has been sober for nearly four decades, she wanted something more meaningful. The honey bar is filled with jars she’s collected from around the world, along with her own home-grown honey from her Pennsylvania farm. “I like to collect different honeys from wherever we travel,” she said. “The jars with the letters HH are the honey I made at the farm.”

Nature, Horses, and Peace

The ranch is Yolanda’s ultimate escape. It’s surrounded by nature and tailored to her love of horses. There’s a stockyard-style mudroom with reclaimed benches, old bridles, and riding gear. Outside, there’s a stunning fire pit area with a half-moon layout that overlooks a lake—a true “slice of heaven,” she called it.

Every detail was intentional. She used recycled mushroom crates for accent walls, added a tornado-proof pantry with industrial design, and incorporated moody blacks and earthy tones throughout the living room. Crystals, vintage books from Europe, and old furniture make the house feel rich with history and spirit.

Will She Stay or Will She Go?

Now that she and Joey are no longer together, the big question lingers: Will Yolanda stay in Texas?

The ranch was built for a shared life. It reflected their bond, their shared passions, and their vision for the future. But with that vision now changed, Yolanda may be reconsidering her options. She still owns her beloved farmhouse in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, which is much closer to New York City—where her daughters Gigi and Bella both have homes. That proximity could be a major draw if she chooses to be closer to family.

Yolanda also owns a penthouse in Los Angeles, though it’s unclear whether she’d want to return to that pace of life. The model-turned-wellness advocate has long expressed her love for nature, peace, and rural living. The Texas ranch checked those boxes perfectly—but will it still feel like home without Joey?

A Look Back on Their Love

Yolanda was open about how special Joey was to her. After her split from music producer David Foster in 2015, she spent time focusing on herself, her health, and her personal healing. Then Joey came into her life—and not quietly.

“I made a love spiral,” she once told People. “I wrote down exactly everything that was important to me in a man and he magically just rang the doorbell at the farm.”

She was 55 at the time and spoke openly about how grateful she was to find love again. “To find love again at 55 is amazing,” she said. “He rides horses, he loves nature, he loves the farm.”

It was a chapter full of new beginnings, and together, they built a beautiful space that mirrored their shared values. That energy can still be felt in every corner of the home—even now, after the split.

A Future Still Unwritten

As of now, Yolanda hasn’t said whether she’ll leave Texas behind. For someone who’s built a deeply personal life connected to nature, wellness, and her family, that decision probably won’t come lightly.

Whatever she chooses—whether it’s returning to Pennsylvania, staying in Texas, or carving a new path somewhere else—one thing’s clear: Yolanda Hadid knows how to create a space that reflects her soul. And with or without Joey, she’s sure to keep doing that in her next chapter.
