The Ultimate Co-Parenting Masterclass: Life with Lea De Seine
The relationship between Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk, which began in 2015 and ended in 2019, resulted in one of the most private and protected celebrity children: Lea De Seine Shayk Cooper.The Commitment to Joint Custody
Upon their separation in June 2019, the former couple made a crucial and mature decision: they agreed to joint legal and physical custody of their daughter, Lea De Seine.
A key component of this agreement was the commitment to live in the same city—New York City—to minimize disruption to their child’s life.
This geographical proximity allows for seamless transitions and ensures that Lea De Seine has consistent access to both parents, a strategy that has been praised for its child-first approach.
Irina’s Philosophy on Parenthood
Irina Shayk has been notably vocal about their shared parenting philosophy, emphasizing that they are not a "co-parenting" unit in the traditional sense, but simply "parents."
She has described Bradley Cooper as an "amazing father" and a supportive partner in raising their daughter.
The model stressed the importance of protecting their daughter's privacy, which is why Lea De Seine is rarely seen in public or on social media, though she did make an adorable red carpet debut with her father at a film premiere.
Recent Public Sightings (2024–2025)
Far from avoiding each other, Cooper and Shayk are frequently photographed together, often on casual strolls around the West Village or during family outings.
A highly publicized example was their joint trick-or-treating outing for Halloween 2024, where they appeared relaxed and happy together, demonstrating the strength of their friendship.
These consistent, amicable appearances are not signs of a romantic reunion, but rather a public display of their successful, united front as parents.
Navigating New Romances and Red Carpets: Gigi Hadid, Tom Brady, and the VS Runway
The success of their co-parenting dynamic is further highlighted by their ability to maintain respect and cordiality while pursuing new, high-profile romantic relationships. This is perhaps the most unique aspect of their current arrangement.Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid
Bradley Cooper’s relationship with supermodel Gigi Hadid has been a major headline generator since late 2023. The couple has been spotted together frequently, and the relationship appears to be serious, with sources confirming a deep connection.
The fact that Cooper is dating a fellow high-profile model who is also a mother (Gigi has a daughter with ex-partner Zayn Malik) adds another layer of complexity to the blended family dynamic.
Irina Shayk and the Tom Brady Link
Irina Shayk also briefly re-entered the dating spotlight, having been linked to NFL legend Tom Brady in 2023.
While that romance appears to have concluded, reports suggested that Bradley Cooper was initially "worried" about the possibility of Brady taking his place in his daughter’s life, a natural concern for any co-parent.
However, the smooth continuation of his co-parenting with Irina suggests that any initial anxieties were managed maturely, keeping the focus on Lea De Seine's well-being.
The 2025 Victoria’s Secret Runway Twist
In a twist only Hollywood could produce, reports suggest that Irina Shayk is set to walk the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway in 2025 alongside none other than Bradley Cooper's current girlfriend, Gigi Hadid.
This potential shared professional space is a testament to the modern, drama-free environment the two women, and by extension Cooper and Shayk, are cultivating. It underscores a commitment to professionalism and mutual respect that extends beyond the personal sphere.
The Legacy of an Amicable Split
The story of Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk is a powerful case study in the evolution of celebrity relationships. They have proven that the end of a romance does not have to mean the end of a family unit. By prioritizing their daughter's stability and agreeing to practical measures like living in the same city and sharing joint custody, they have set a gold standard for amicable separation.
Their ability to move on to new relationships—with Gigi Hadid and the brief Tom Brady link—while maintaining a close, functional friendship is remarkable. As they continue into 2025, their dynamic remains one of the most stable and mature in Hollywood, a quiet victory for co-parenting over conflict.
