While Yolanda is ready to give up her second husband's last name, she says her battle with Lyme disease has kept her from getting back out into the dating scene. "I haven't tried it yet," the 52-year-old model admitted. "I'm still at home trying to get well."

Her daughters, however, are in very public relationships, with Gigi, 20, dating Zayn Malik, and Bella, 19, seeing The Weeknd. "It's their choice," she said. "As long as they treat my daughters with great respect and love them, it's all good for me."

When ET spoke with Yolanda back in December, she had yet to be introduced to Gigi's beau. "I haven't met him yet," she shared. "Gigi's 20 years old, loving life, shopping like she should. I haven't met him yet, so I can't say anything about him."

At Tuesday's Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue party in New York City, Gigi did open up to ET about the 23-year-old "Pillowtalk" singer, and what he thought of her sexy photos in the magazine."He obviously liked the pictures," she told ET's Jennifer Peros, referring to her new guy as her "special someone."
