Actor-filmmaker Bradley Cooper and supermodel Gigi Hadid are reportedly getting serious in their relationship, according to insiders. The couple, who have been publicly dating since October 2023, have seen their connection deepen over time. Sources close to the pair have revealed that what initially seemed like a casual fling has evolved into a full-blown relationship. One insider shared, “I wasn’t sure this was anything other than a casual fling when it started, but it has grown more serious.” The source also mentioned that Hadid had a crush on Cooper before they started dating, and now, “They have a good solid social life and are really happy.”
Another source echoed these sentiments, stating, “Considering how busy they both are with work and family, they have managed to keep this alive and are going strong. Each admires the success of the other, and they have kids in common.” Cooper has a seven-year-old daughter, while Hadid has a three-year-old daughter, providing them with common ground to bond over.
Despite their growing relationship, Cooper and Hadid have not made any red-carpet appearances together or interacted meaningfully on social media. Instead, they have opted for occasional public outings to confirm their relationship. They were recently spotted having a great time at The Eras Tour in Paris, standing in the VIP section with Taylor Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Kelce, who has occasionally double-dated with the couple, shared his experience on his podcast, saying, “I got to see Gigi and Bradley. Bradley Cooper, man. BC, Big Coop. We were all in the suite having a blast. They’re amazing.”
The relationship between Cooper and Hadid seems to be progressing steadily. After Hadid joined friends Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Sophie Turner, Cara Delevingne, and Brittany Mahomes for a girls’ night out, Cooper reportedly “crashed” the event, and the two were seen out at a club until 3 a.m. A source told Entertainment Tonight, “After the ladies finished with their dinner, they went over to Zero Bond and some other friends joined—including Bradley Cooper. Bradley was there to meet up with Gigi. The two of them left the club together.”
The couple, who have known each other for a while and share many mutual friends, started out casually but have become more serious over time. “They both have similar personalities that are fun and playful, and they are also both jokesters,” a source said. “They feel comfortable around each other.”
A source speaking to Page Six described the couple’s relationship as being “on steroids,” adding that they are getting “serious very quickly” and are together every day. Cooper, who is 48 compared to Hadid’s 28, is reportedly enjoying the relationship and finds Hadid “intellectually interesting.”
The couple has been seen together numerous times since they were first spotted on October 5, even reportedly retreating to Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island home to get to know each other better. Friends and family of the couple are hopeful for an engagement soon. A source told Entertainment Tonight, “Everything is going well with Gigi and Bradley, and they’re really happy in their relationship. Their friends and family would love to see them get engaged soon, but also know that they are on their own path and timeline.”
The source added that the couple has discussed their future together. “Communication has always been key between the two of them, and they are both open and honest with each other about their future. They are also both dedicated when it comes to their work commitments and projects, loved ones, and parenthood. They have similar goals, which makes it very easy for them to connect.”
Cooper and Hadid have been seen mostly out and about in New York City. Kelce’s mother, Donna, confirmed that the two couples recently returned from a private vacation together in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. The couple shares a lot in common, including their young daughters and their serious approach to their careers. Hadid is busy with modeling gigs and her clothing line, Guest In Residence, while Cooper has been occupied with his film “Maestro,” which he starred in, directed, and produced.
The couple has already spoken about their future together and next steps. “They are great at communicating with each other in a healthy, open, and honest way. They are excited about moving forward,” a source told Entertainment Tonight back in February.
Hadid recently celebrated her 29th birthday, and a photo shared by her sister Marielle on Instagram showed Cooper right there with Hadid, their heads touching as they smiled for the camera. The photo also included Hadid’s siblings, making it seem like Cooper is already a part of the family.
