Despite Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk calling it quits on their romance back in June 2019, the pair have seemingly maintained a pretty friendly bond since. In August 2022, the exes enjoyed a rare tropical getaway together, which the supermodel documented on Instagram with some beach photos of her and the “A Star Is Born” actor. They later had a run-in at the 2023 Met Gala in May, and now they’re back at the beach enjoying some fun in the sun, per Shayk’s latest Instagram posts.
Over the course of their four-year relationship, Shayk and Cooper were spotted enjoying a few makeout sessions while on vacation, staying close at events, and accompanying one another on red carpets. They even welcomed a daughter, Lea De Seine, in March 2017. At the time of their split, People reported that a source said Cooper and Shayk had figured out a way to amicably share custody of their child and coparent.
Shayk gave Harper’s Bazaar an update on their parenthood journey back in April, telling the publication, “We’re teaching our daughter that the most important thing is to be kind to people.”
Even though Shayk is currently rumored to be dating Tom Brady, some fans are curious about her close-knit bond with ex Cooper. Scroll ahead to look back at their romance and learn more about the friendly exes.
