Gigi Hadid has offered a rare and heartfelt glimpse into her relationship with Bradley Cooper, describing their romance as "very romantic and happy." The supermodel and the Oscar-nominated actor have been spotted together on several occasions over the past few months, sparking curiosity and speculation about their love story. However, both have chosen to remain discreet, keeping details of their personal lives out of the public eye. Unlike many Hollywood couples who share glimpses of their relationships on social media or at high-profile events, Hadid and Cooper have deliberately maintained a low profile, cherishing their time together away from the spotlight.
In a recent interview with Vogue, Hadid shared that she is enjoying this new phase of her life and values the balance she and Cooper have found together. She emphasized how important privacy is to her, explaining that their relationship is something she wants to keep sacred. "It’s just not part of our relationship to share for whatever reason," she said, reinforcing the idea that they prefer to nurture their bond away from public scrutiny. She expressed gratitude for having someone who not only complements her but also understands the demands of their respective careers.
Hadid also revealed that Cooper has introduced her to new experiences, particularly in the arts, something she has grown to cherish. "Bradley has opened me up to going to the theatre more, and that’s something that’s so nice to bring back into my life," she shared, highlighting how their relationship has positively influenced her interests and personal growth. She described their dynamic as effortless and fulfilling, explaining that they both approach the relationship with clarity and maturity. "Just getting to the point where knowing what you want and deserve in a relationship is essential," Hadid said. "Then to find someone that is in a place in their life where they know what they want and deserve, and you both do work separately to come together and be the best partner that you can be—I just feel really lucky."
The couple’s journey together reportedly began at a backyard birthday party of a mutual friend’s child, where they first connected. Over time, their bond deepened, leading to a meaningful and supportive relationship. Hadid spoke highly of Cooper not just as a partner but also as a creative force who inspires her. "I respect him so much as a creative," she said. "And I feel that he gives so much to me: encouragement and, just, belief. For those people you admire to encourage you, it can create so much belief in yourself. Like, what’s the worst thing if I auditioned for this? You jump and take the leap." Her words suggest that Cooper’s support has had a profound impact on her confidence, possibly opening doors for her to explore new artistic endeavors beyond modeling.
In addition to discussing her relationship with Cooper, Hadid also shared insights into her co-parenting journey with her former boyfriend, singer Zayn Malik. The former couple, who dated for six years before parting ways in 2021, share a daughter, Khai, whom they are raising together with mutual respect and understanding. Speaking about their co-parenting dynamic, Hadid explained, "We help each other out and have each other’s backs." She acknowledged that despite their romantic relationship ending, they continue to work as a team when it comes to their daughter’s upbringing.
She further elaborated on how they maintain a positive co-parenting relationship, saying, "At the end of the day, we’re not interested in giving everyone our whole story. What we are interested in is raising our daughter together, with so much respect for each other, and not just as co-parents, but for what we’ve been through together." This statement suggests that while their past relationship had its challenges, they have chosen to move forward with maturity, focusing on creating a loving and stable environment for Khai.
Hadid and Malik welcomed their daughter in September 2020. However, their split in 2021 was reportedly influenced by an alleged family dispute involving Gigi’s mother, Yolanda Hadid. Despite this, the two have since put their differences aside, prioritizing their daughter’s well-being above all else. Their ability to navigate co-parenting with mutual respect and cooperation stands out in an industry where high-profile breakups often lead to public disputes.
As Hadid continues to embrace her journey as a mother, model, and now a partner in a flourishing romance with Cooper, she remains steadfast in her desire to keep certain aspects of her life private. However, her recent comments offer a rare and meaningful glimpse into her world—one where love, respect, and personal growth take precedence over external validation. Whether in her co-parenting relationship with Malik or her blossoming romance with Cooper, Hadid appears to be in a place of contentment, making thoughtful choices about her relationships and future.
