London Calling for Hollywood’s Chicest Couple
Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper brought their burgeoning romance across the pond this week, proving their coupledom can translate effortlessly from New York’s cobbled streets to the regal avenues of London.
The genetically blessed pair were first spotted canoodling in Manhattan last fall, setting the gossip pages alight with speculation about a new A-list alliance. Though they attempted to keep their tryst under wraps in those early days, Hadid and Cooper are now radiating the relaxed intimacy of two people reveling in the first flush of love.
Strolling the streets of London, they exemplified off-duty model-meets-movie star chic. Hadid bundled her willowy 6-foot frame in a pair of slouchy brown cashmere trousers from her fledgling knitwear brand Guest in Residence, adding insouciant model-off-duty edge with a brown bomber jacket. Meanwhile Cooper exuded refined masculinity in camo print cargo trousers and a classic pea coat. Ever the style savant, he finished the look with a $565 Louis Vuitton beanie in a rich navy.
Just days prior, the genetically blessed duo were spied catching a flight out of JFK. Hadid opted for her signature model travel uniform of jeans, a pristine white tee and that same beloved bomber jacket, adding a punchy green hat to keep her flawless features hidden from prying eyes. Cooper kept his look equally low-key in black trousers, a red plaid button-down and a sleek black topcoat.
Though they attempted to fly under the radar, it seems cupid had other plans for these two. Rumors of a romance first ignited in October 2022 when they were spotted dining at rustic Italian hotspot Via Carota. The pair were later photographed leaving together in an SUV, with Cooper taking the wheel while Hadid rode in the passenger seat.
According to an inside source, Hadid has been quietly harboring feelings for the silver fox actor for some time. Though hesitant to rush into anything serious, she’s said to be thrilled to explore their connection. “She’s independent, busy, and her days are filled with responsibilities so I don’t see anything serious happening right away if at all,” the insider shared. “But she had sort of a crush on [Cooper] for a while.”
Judging from their relaxed body language and easy rapport, things have clearly progressed between the supermodel and A-lister. Another source revealed that after months of private dates, they’ve worked out how to merge their two high-voltage lives. “They were quietly dating for much longer before it went public and were very hush-hush, trying to see if things would work between them,” the insider confessed. “They had several months together privately and things have been going really well.”
Most recently, the fledgling couple enjoyed a starry date night after last weekend’s Golden Globes ceremony. They stopped for dinner at upscale Italian eatery Giorgio Baldi, and Cooper’s mother Gloria tagged along for the fun. According to eyewitnesses, the trio appeared utterly at ease, clearly relishing this new chapter.
“Bradley and Gigi looked happy together,” recalled one diner. “They weren’t overly affectionate, but it was still obvious that they are dating. There were lots of loving glances and flirting.”
With transatlantic trips, glamorous awards season outings, and the seal of approval from Mama Cooper, it seems things are heating up nicely for this genetically-blessed couple. The world will be watching eagerly to see what happens next in Hadid and Cooper’s international love story.
