Over the weekend, the paparazzi caught Hadid and Cooper walking the streets of New York with huge smiles on their faces. "Gigi and Bradley are in love," a confidant of the pair confirmed to Entertainment Tonight. "Their relationship is easy, fun and normal," the source continues. "They bond over family, friends, conversations about life, parenting, living in the public eye, humor and more. They have a synergy and understanding with regard to all these things and it connects them in a deep way."
Another source discussed the couple, saying that they "get along really well and bond over being parents of younger children. They respect each other for working extremely hard and pouring everything they have into their work while remaining humble."
Gigi shares 3-year-old daughter, Khai, with her ex, Zayn Malik. Bradley shares 6-year-old daughter, Lea, with his ex, Irina Shayk, whom he split from in 2019 but has remained friendly.
Hadid and Malik had a long-term, on-and-off affair, between 2015 and 2021. In September 2020, thier daughter Khai, 3, was born, but the couple separated shortly after following a violent confrontation between Malik and Gigi's mother, Yolanda Hadid.
Gigi Hadid, an ardent critic of Israel, has been slamming Israel's conduct during the war in Gaza. Recently, she posted an apology on Instagram, following an antisemitic post. "As someone of Palestinian descent, the endless heartbreaking news and imagery coming out of Gaza has been painful and often overwhelming. It is important to me to share real stories about the hardships that Palestinians have endured and continue to endure, but this weekend I shared something that I did not fact check or deeply think about prior to reposting," she posted.
