May 07, 2026

As one of the most successful actors in Hollywood, Bradley Cooper's romantic life has made headlines even before his relationship and headline-grabbing breakup with Irina Shayk.
Bradley Cooper's movies are guaranteed to draw attention, and his upcoming Netflix film "Maestro" is no different. Starring Cooper as composer Leonard Bernstein and Carey Mulligan, Matt Bomer, and Maya Hawke in other leading roles, the film will be released in 2023.
Cooper also serves as "Maestro's" director and producer. Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, Kristie Macosko Krieger, Fred Berner, and Amy Durning are the rest of the producers. Scroll down and see Cooper's unrecognizable look as Bernstein and the actor's dating history.

WHO HAS BRADLEY COOPER DATED?
"NCIS" star Jennifer Esposito was the first actress romantically linked to Bradley Cooper. The former couple's connection was so strong that they even tied the knot in December 2006.
Unfortunately, their marriage was short-lived, and they parted ways in May 2007. After that, Cooper supposedly dated "Bad Teacher" star Cameron Diaz, "Judy" actress Renee Zellweger, and "In Time" actress Olivia Wilde.

Shortly after Jennifer Lopez separated from her longtime husband Marc Anthony in 2011, she was linked to Cooper. They had dinner in New York and attended fashion shows in Miami, but things never took off.
Cooper moved on with his "Guardians of the Galaxy" co-star Zoe Saldana. In 2013, the second time they broke up, they admitted their conflicting schedules played a significant part in their split.
Suki Waterhouse and Bradley Cooper's relationship made headlines in March 2013. Their two-year romance raised some eyebrows because the British model is 17 years younger than Cooper.
It is essential to point out that Cooper likes to keep most details of his personal life away from the limelight. Although paparazzi photographed him with the Hollywood stars listed above, he didn't confirm almost any of those relationships.
BRADLEY COOPER AND IRINA SHAYK'S LOVE STORY
The only woman who captured Cooper's heart for a long time was Russian model Irina Shayk. They started dating in March 2015 and welcomed a daughter, Lea De Seine, one year later.
Shayk allegedly wanted more of Cooper in every way.
Unfortunately, after four years together, Shayk and Cooper parted ways in June 2019. The former lovebirds ran into each other at the 2022 Met Gala in New York City and even took photos with Nicki Minaj and designer Riccardo Tisci.
WHY DID IRINA SHAYK AND BRADLEY COOPER BREAK UP?
Shayk and Cooper's separation sparked several rumors. One even got his "A Star Is Born" co-star, Lady Gaga, involved. Their chemistry was so unique that people believed they had fallen in love on set, leading to Cooper and Shayk's breakup.
However, the "Alejandro" singer had nothing to do with it. Sources claim that Shayk had high hopes for her relationship with Cooper after giving birth to their daughter.
She wanted him to find enough time to marry her, but that never happened. Shayk allegedly wanted more of Cooper in every way, but he spent too much time working.
Cooper's ex-girlfriend felt he was not wholly committed to their relationship. They reportedly argued so much that things started to get unbearable, so they parted ways. Nowadays, Cooper is single and focused on his career.
