Bigg Boss OTT 2: Jad Hadid shares how his parents left him at their neighbours doorstep; recalls his meeting with his mom 17 years later

Lebanese born model Jad Hadid, who is currently one of the contestants of Bigg Boss OTT season 2, was seen having a heart-to-heart conversation about his life with Pooja Bhatt and Cyrus Broacha. During the latest episode, Jad spoke about his troubled childhood when his parents dropped him at their neighbours doorstep and he was raised by them. In the latest episode, Jad, Pooja and Cyrus were sitting together and having a chat when Cyrus asked him about his survival story and why his parents left him at their neighbours doorstep.
Talking about his parents, Jad went on to share how they left him alone at their neighbours doorstep, "When my father came back after spending some time with my mom, she got pregnant. After I was born, he took my papers to the municipality, my mother's condition was to Baptise me, he went off and travelled to different locations. When I was born he was not around and my mom baptised me and she named me. She thought he would never return, it was 1984, there were no phone calls. He came back, took my papers and saw the church papers which mentioned that I was baptised. She named me Jad which is a very common name and doesn't belong to any religion. He went to the court, came back home, tore off all of her documents, threw out my paper, gave her divorce, packed his bags and left. He did all this in one day."

He further continued, a few days later, "My mother thought he had come back, so she packed up her stuff and went to her parents, dropping me at the neighbours. She thought my father was back. She left me at the neighbours telling them she's going to the supermarket, This is what she told me 17 years later when she met me. I stayed in that room for a week. I ate garbage, there was a restaurant across the street. The restaurant people would throw all the leftovers by the end of the day. I would go down, pick up whatever I want and then go back. One day one of the nieghbours, who owned a library, saw me and he freaked out and started yelling that how could my mom leave me out. He came, he took me by my hand and knocked on the door and nobody opened. Basically, my dad had sold the house in a few hours."
When Pooja asked him how he found his mother, Jad recalled his meeting with her 17 years later, "I looked out for her. It was very dramatic. She fell down when I told her who I am. I showed her everything (documents). She obviously can't read after whatever she had been through. And after I met after a few years she died. I never want her to apologise, she said sorry. She thought I still get goosebumps talking about it, she thought all this time I was with my dad. She was not aware I was alone, she thought my dad had come back home and took me with him. She didn't want to fight him, she had that in her head."
Cyrus asked Jad about his father and the latter shared that he is no more. He passed away 10 years ago and he never tried to find him. An emotional Pooja Bhatt got up from her place and hugged him. She praised him for his journey.
