Bradley Cooper’s Dating History: From Engagements to Rumored Romances

Bradley Cooper, with his undeniable charm and talent, has captured the hearts of many, both on and off the screen. While he’s been crowned one of PEOPLE’s Sexiest Men Alive, Cooper himself has often shied away from the “ladies’ man” label.

Instead, he’s chosen to keep his personal life relatively private, sharing glimpses only on rare occasions. 

Let’s browse through the romantic chapters of this acclaimed actor’s life, highlighting not just the relationships but also the growth and maturity that came with them.

1. The Early Years: Jennifer Esposito

In the winter of 2006, Hollywood was abuzz with whispers of a budding romance between Cooper and actress Jennifer Esposito. Their relationship moved at a whirlwind pace, with an engagement in October and a quiet wedding in December. However, by May 2007, the couple had parted ways. 

Reflecting on this brief marriage, Cooper once mentioned on The Howard Stern Show, “It was just something that happened… Sometimes you just realize it.”

2. A Starry Connection: Renée Zellweger

Cooper’s on-screen chemistry with Renée Zellweger in the horror film “Case 39” spilled over into real life. Their relationship, which began in 2009, was marked by shared holidays and public appearances. 

Cooper’s admiration for Zellweger was evident when he said, “I just love her. I [loved] coming to work. I love acting with her.” Though they parted ways in 2011, their bond remained, with the two sharing a warm moment at the 2020 Academy Awards.

Quick Trivia: Both stars were spotted catching up warmly at the 2020 Academy Awards, proving their enduring respect.

3. Brief Encounters: Jennifer Lopez and Zoe Saldaña

2011 saw Cooper dining with pop icon Jennifer Lopez in New York, sparking rumors. While the duo maintained it was a business meeting, their subsequent appearances together hinted at a deeper connection. Fast forward to 2012, and Cooper was linked with actress Zoe Saldaña. 

Their on-and-off relationship, filled with public displays of affection, lasted throughout the year.

4. The British Chapter: Suki Waterhouse

The beginning of 2013 saw Cooper’s name attached to British actress and model Suki Waterhouse. 

Their relationship, though mostly low-key, had its moments in the spotlight, like their appearance at the SAG Awards in 2014. By early 2015, the couple had parted ways, yet they continued to share friendly moments in public.

5. A Deep Bond: Irina Shayk

Arguably Cooper’s most publicized relationship was with Russian supermodel Irina Shayk. Their romance, which began in 2015, was marked by public outings and the birth of their daughter, Lea De Seine, in 2017. 

Cooper once shared how fatherhood shifted his perspective, saying, “Having a child… has opened me up even more.” Though the couple separated in 2019, they’ve prioritized co-parenting, often seen together for their daughter’s sake. Recent speculations hint at a possible reconciliation, but both remain tight-lipped.
