Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid are reportedly serious about each other

Bradley Cooper and his supermodel girlfriend, Gigi HadidThey are said to be taking their relationship very seriously, but are in no rush to get engaged.

The pair, who are described as “the real deal”, are said to have a close bond thanks to their commitment to raising their children.

Despite the pair's big age gap, sources say Gigi Hadid's free-spirited nature complements Bradley Cooper's laid-back demeanor and the pair “get along so well.”

Cooper, 50, and Hadid, 29, are getting close, but they're reportedly in no rush to make things official.

According to a source, the couple, who first sparked romance rumors in October 2023, are “very happy together” but see engagement as a major step they are not ready to take.

“They are serious about each other, but getting engaged would be a big step,” an insider said People magazine. “Nobody wants to rush anything, but that doesn't mean they're not very happy together.”

Hadid has been a strong supporter of Cooper's recent projects, with the report saying she's “in love” and “their relationship is a big priority for her.”

The source also revealed that their families have been spending time together and their children get along well, further strengthening their bond.

They noted that Hadid's “free-spirited personality brings out Bradley's fun side.”

“They are very happy,” another source shared. “They are busy with work, but they also prioritize their relationships and their daughters.”

An insider said Entertainment tonight that Hadid is deeply in love with Cooper and that the couple's relationship is thriving.

The insider also noted that their shared dedication to raising their children has brought them closer.

“Gigi and Bradley are committed parents and they are very close about this,” they explained. “They have a strong bond with their daughters and are at the forefront of everything they do.”

While preparing for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show last year, the model also hinted at her admiration for Cooper's dedication to being a great dad, noting that the 'Maestro' star watched her show 'from home'.

“He's a dad, but he's so supportive,” she told the news outlet an interview.

Cooper is the father of seven-year-old Leah De Seine, whom he shares with ex-girlfriend Irina Shayk. Meanwhile, Hadid is mother to four-year-old Khai, whom she shares with ex-boyfriend Zayn Malik.

According to Messengeran insider claimed that Cooper's ex-girlfriend Shayka played matchmaker for the actor and Hadid.

“Gigi was introduced to Bradley through Irene and their mutual friends in the industry,” the source shared. “Gigi and Irina have been close over the years working together, and Gigi and Bradley have been together before, but it's always been amicable socially.”

The insider continued, “Gigi and Bradley recently connected and bonded with their daughters when Bradley asked her out.”

They explained that Cooper took the initiative, noting, “He was chasing her and she was definitely interested and excited.”

A source added at the time: “Gigi has made it clear she doesn't want a serious relationship. They have a lot in common and both relate to being older in the industry. She wants to get into acting and is interested in Bradley's perspective and guidance. It's very casual at the moment .”

In its cover story last December Us Weekly Insiders shared information about how Cooper planned to celebrate his birthday and what his relationship with Hadid is in relation to the possible engagement.

One source revealed that the pair are “the real deal” and their relationship has “become very serious over the past year”.

While an engagement could be on the horizon, there are no immediate plans to propose.

The insider added: “Bradley and Gigi have very calm temperaments and are very understanding; that's why they match so well.”

They also mentioned that the two share a love of the countryside, often spending time at their country home in Pennsylvania.

Cooper and Hadid's romance shows no signs of slowing down. The source said earlier People that they are now in a “full relationship” and that the model is “very happy” with the “Maestro” actor and director.

Despite their significantly large age gap and busy schedules, the source noted that the couple “have managed to spend time together and enjoy each other.”

“When it started, I wasn't sure it was anything more than a casual fling, but it's gotten more serious,” the insider told the news outlet, before going on to explain that they like people like that and that Hadid had to “force” him, before they started dating.

“They have a good and stable social life and are really happy,” the source added.
