They are two of the biggest names in Hollywood.

But Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper have enjoyed a romance shielded from the glitz and glamour of showbiz.

Instead, the supermodel, 31, and Bafta award-winning actor, 51, have mostly kept their relationship out of the spotlight.

Despite raising eyebrows with their 20-year age gap, the pair reportedly 'have a lot in common', including being girl parents, their love of NYC, and their affinity for Italian food.

Since first crossing paths at a birthday party for a mutual friend's child in late 2023, their relationship has only gone from strength to strength.

Fast forward to today, and it is rumoured that the pair have secretly tied the knot after they were spotted wearing wedding bands in Paris earlier this week.

As fans wait for more news on their 'marriage', the Daily Mail takes a look back at their low-key romance.

Inside Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper's low-key romance after the pair bonded over 'everyday chaos of parenting'

Fast forward to today, and it is rumoured that the pair have secretly tied the knot after they were spotted wearing wedding bands in Paris earlier this week

Gigi and Bradley met through friends in New York, after 'bonding over the everyday chaos of parenting and early mornings with their kids'.

In October 2023, they were spotted enjoying dinner at New York City's Via Carota and leaving in the same car.

'Gigi and Bradley are spending a significant amount of time together when their schedules allow for it,' the insider said at the time.

The pair are both parents and are said to have 'similar personalities' which means they 'get along well'.

She has a daughter, now five, named Khai with Zayn Malik, whom she split from 'for good' in 2021 after six years of on/off dating.

Meanwhile, Bradley split with Irina Shayk in 2019 after four years together. They share daughter Lea, now nine.

'Underneath it all, [Bradley and Gigi] are both goofy, love to laugh, travel, and spend time with their family and friends.

'They are genuinely happy and taking things day by day. Fame doesn't phase either one of them and they admire that about each other,' the source explained.

The pair are 'smitten with each other' and have 'bonded' over their shared interests.

'The two enjoy spending time together and have introduced each other to the important people in their lives,' the insider said, adding: 'People around them think they are great together.'

Bradley and Gigi appeared to confirm their red-hot romance in London in January when they were pictured walking hand-in-hand, just one month after Bradley purchased a home near his girlfriend's family horse farm in Pennsylvania.

The residence is reportedly close to Gigi's mother Yolanda Hadid's $4million farm in New Hope, which has a population of less than 3,000.

They then attended Taylor Swift's Eras Tour in Paris alongside the singer's now-husband Travis Kelce.

Travis, who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs, went on to share on his New Heights podcast that he had a 'blast' with the pair, describing them as 'amazing'.

The couple was also spotted dancing to Stevie Nicks at the BottleRock music festival in Napa, California during Memorial Day weekend.

In June 2024, they were pictured enjoying a date night in New York, packed with public displays of affection.

According to Page Six, the lovebirds were seen 'cuddling and kissing' as they dined at the Tribeca restaurant Forgione with friends.

The couple had yet to speak publicly about their relationship and had maintained a relatively low profile.

By the following month, it was said that the pair were looking to cement their future together.

Despite only being nine months in, the smitten actor was said to be ready to take their romance to the next level and pop the question, with insiders claiming he is 'determined' to marry the supermodel.

The pair also reportedly discussed having children together, adding to their 'blended functional family' with their exes.

'Bradley has already determined that he is going to ask Gigi to marry him,' an insider told the Daily Mail.

'This is not even a question. They discussed family and marriage early on in their relationship.

'They have been committed to each other and to their plans for some time and now it is just a matter of when.'

The Oscar-winner won't have any pushback from those closest to Gigi as he already has 'the blessing of her family, friends and even her daughter'.

Revealing how Gigi and Zayn operate as co-parents, the source continued: ‘Bradley has met Zayn. They have all moved on and are dedicated parents so there is never any issue at all. They have had contact numerous times when dealing with their kids who they all co-parent amicably.

'In addition, Gigi and Zayn’s daughter gets along so well with Bradley and Irina’s daughter. She almost acts like a big sister to her. They have every intention of becoming a blended functional family.’

A separate source confirmed that Bradley's feelings for Gigi were solidified by her support during his disappointing awards season run for Maestro.

Then, after more than a year of dating, it was reported that the pair had worked hard to seamlessly blend their two families.

A source revealed to People that the Oscar nominee's daughter Lea and the supermodel's little girl, Khai like to 'spend time together'.

'It’s very sweet,' the insider added. 'They are busy with work, but also prioritise their relationship and daughters.'

While Gigi and Bradley have mostly kept their relationship out of the spotlight, the mum-of-one gave some insight into their bond.

Speaking to Vogue in March 2025, she said being with the actor has helped to give her a 'normal experience of dating'.

'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.

'You want to give yourself a normal experience of dating and even for my friends who aren't public figures, that's hard. Where do you go? And, what? You just start talking to people?' Hadid mused.

She reflected, 'I think just getting to the point where knowing what you want and deserve in a relationship is essential, and 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. Yeah, lucky's the word.'

The pair went Instagram official in May 2025 when Gigi included a snap of them kissing in her birthday party album.

She affectionately held his face in her manicured hands as they lip-locked behind her multi-tier chocolate birthday cake.

The mother-of-one started the caption: 'I feel so lucky to be 30! I feel so lucky for every high and low- for all the lessons and gifts both have brought me. To get to feel it all!'

The Guest in Residence designer subtly gave a nod to her romance as she continued: 'I’m so lucky to be a mom, friend, partner, sister, daughter, colleague to some of the most unbelievable humans!!'

In December last year, sources revealed that the actor had asked Gigi's family for permission to propose.

'Bradley asked Yolanda for Gigi's hand in marriage,' a source has told the Daily Mail. 'He wants her to know how serious he is about Gigi and how he plans to build a solid family with her in New York.'

The actor has also let his own mother, Gloria Campano, in on his big plans. 'They are very close and he loops her in on everything,' the source said of the mother-son relationship.

Although they have kept a veil of privacy assiduously drawn over their romance , they were both seen among the star-studded 1,000-person guest list at Taylor Swift's wedding

Last month, Gigi unveiled a special $2,995 necklace that is in honour of her beau

Gigi has known a proposal is coming, and has talked to her mum as well as her father, Mohamed Hadid, about becoming Mrs Cooper, the Daily Mail has also learned.

'Her mom, Yolanda, is on board so that was a no-brainer. But Gigi telling her father she wants to marry Bradley is a big step, it's much more official,' added the insider.

A big reason the pair want to get married is their children, as they want them to be raised together.

Gigi has been spotted spending time with Bradley's daughter Lea on recent public outings.

Back in April, the model showed off her stepmom side and flashed a cheerful smile with Lea during a lighthearted moment while the actor also joined the pair in NYC.

And last month, she unveiled a special $2,995 necklace that is in honour of her beau.

She uploaded a photo to her Instagram stories as she gave a closeup look at the piece of jewellery which was custom engraved with both of their first initials and a heart.

The 14k yellow gold dog tag ID pendant was bordered by diamonds that sparkled in the light.

In text added over the picture, the model gave a shout out to jewellery designer and 'queen' Sheryl Berkoff Lowe.

Although they have kept a veil of privacy assiduously drawn over their romance, they were both seen among the star-studded 1,000-person guest list at Taylor's wedding to Travis at Madison Square Garden on July 3.

They jetted off shortly thereafter to the French capital, where filming has commenced on Bradley's upcoming Ocean's Eleven prequel co-starring Margot Robbie.

Most recently, Gigi and Bradley ignited a storm of marriage rumors when they surfaced in Paris this week wearing rings on their wedding fingers.

The couple were seen enjoying a stroll together, he in a simple V-neck t-shirt and dark trousers and she in a white crop top that hinted at her chiselled midriff.

Simple bands could be glimpsed on Cooper and Hadid's left hands, pouring fuel on the gathering fan speculation about their potential marital status.

The Daily Mail has contacted Cooper and Hadid's representatives for comment.

Gigi and Zayn split under a cloud of claims of his explosive falling-out with her mother Yolanda

Meanwhile, Braldey and Irina dated from 2015 to 2019, and in the wake of their split settled into a co-parenting equation so friendly they moved blocks away from one another; pictured 2018

Bradley and Irina dated from 2015 to 2019, and in the wake of their split they settled into a co-parenting equation so friendly that they moved mere blocks away from one another in New York City's Greenwich Village.

Meanwhile, Gigi and ex Zayn had a turbulent on-off romance from 2015 until 2021.

News of their final breakup went public amid claims of the One Direction star's explosive falling-out with Gigi's mother Yolanda, a former Real Housewife Of Beverly Hills.

The pair were said to have had a fiery altercation, after which he denied claims he was physically violent but pled no contest to four harassment charges.

He was barred from having any contact with Yolanda or the security guard who saw the purported incident, and he was also officially required to complete an anger management course as well as 360 days probation.

The fracas reportedly started when Yolanda entered Hadid and Malik's Pennsylvania home without Malik's permission while Hadid was in Paris for work.

Zayn was accused of having pushed Yolanda into a dresser and calling her a 'fing Dutch s', demanding she keep away from the baby.

It was also claimed he called Gigi and said: 'Strap on some fing balls and defend your partner against your fing mother in my house.'

Gigi and Zayn have since developed their own amicable co-parenting dynamic, which she shed rare light on in an interview last year.

'Zayn and I do our custody schedules months in advance,' Hadid explained in a profile for Vogue. 'That doesn’t mean that it doesn’t change here and there, but we help each other out and have each other’s backs.'

She maintained she and Malik are bringing up Khai with 'love, and a feeling of camaraderie', noting that '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 what we’ve been through together.'
