'100 Percent' Dad Bradley Cooper Reunites with Mom of Only Kid & Considers 'Getting Back Together,' Said Source

• Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk have shown signs of wanting to rekindle their romance .

• They may be planning to have another child.

• Their only daughter Lea has changed them both very much, but the couple has multiple reasons to split up.

It's not Valentine, but there seems to be a lot of love in the air! At least around where Bradley and the mother of his only child are. The pair were recently pictured packing on the PDA during a romantic stroll in New York.

The couple, who were together between 2015 and 2019, was completely engrossed in one another and could not seem to get their hands off each other.

At some point during their stroll, a happy Shayk was even seen giving Cooper's rear end a firm pat, and he was seen giving her a hearty embrace. This comes just months after rumors of their rekindled love started floating around.

It is not the first time the pair have been spotted getting cozy with each other in public. They celebrated this past Halloween together, and the model was pictured sitting on Cooper's lap in a picture from that day.

He was dressed in a bear suit for the festive event while Shayk channeled a racy Bettie Paige, complete with a black riding crop that she had dangling from her mouth. Her gaze had a seductive look, and the chemistry between her and the bear was apparent.

The fact that the actor also had a passionate Oscars performance with his "A Star Is Born" co-star, Lady Gaga, did not help matters.

A source close to them has hinted at the possibility of a budding romance between Cooper and Shayk. Speaking about a tropical family vacation the two went on with their daughter, the insider said:

"It was a real family getaway, and they are considering getting back together. She would like her daughter to have a sibling."

The rekindling of whatever they once had seems even more possible because Shayk and Cooper have not gotten deeply involved with any other person. The actor is also into the idea of making another baby.

The source says they know they will have to deal with each other for several more years because of their daughter, and it has them thinking it may be time to settle down. The couple is very invested in raising their only daughter together as their priorities changed from the moment she was welcomed into this world.

They Don’t Like the Co-parenting Term

Cooper and Shayk went their separate ways in 2019. Before things were confirmed to be over, an insider revealed that they were both trying to put up with the state of things because of their daughter. The source said:

"Things are not good. Neither one is happy."

Even after they eventually parted ways, Cooper and Shayk maintained a cordial relationship and never once argued over anything. They also became co-parenting goals; not only did they create a balanced schedule with their daughter, but they also honored it.

An insider confirmed that the two were on healthy terms and had a healthy amount of respect for each other which generally made co-parenting easier for them. Speaking of which, the term remains one that proud parents frown at. Speaking about it, Shayk said:

"I never understood the term co-parenting. When I'm with my daughter, I'm 100 percent a mother, and when she's with her dad, he's 100 percent her dad. Co-parenting is parenting."

It is not the only time Shayk has praised her baby daddy. She has also called him a "full-on dad" who does not need the help of nannies to care for their daughter. The two are strict parents and are dedicated to raising their daughter to have manners.

It is not surprising that Shayk, whose primary focus is her daughter and career, has such glowing recommendations for Cooper. A source close to him once revealed that the actor's focus had been his daughter and mother, which is not likely to change.

Cooper's life changed after his daughter's birth in March 2017, and in the years that followed, he only fell deeper in love with his child. Speaking to Ellen DeGeneres about it on her show, he said:

"I think, like, every way. It allowed me to embrace my childlike self without any sort of fear of judgment."

He also talked about how he got to play with toys all day or watch cartoons without feeling like he was wasting his life. Shayk's case is different, but only in a little way. According to her, becoming a mom was "one of the greatest things in the world"; however, it did not completely change her life like with Cooper.

Things That May Have Caused Them to Split

After Cooper and Shayk revealed their plans to split up after four years of dating, many people speculated on what could have led them to make the decision. Months before their breakup, the pair had been having difficulties, and Shayk had decided it would be better to move into her own house.

The reason behind her choice remained in obscurity; however, a source has said it all began after he went away to film "A Star Is Born." According to them, Cooper was emotionally distant while he was away, and even though they tried to salvage things after his return, the damage had been done.

The fact that the actor also had a passionate Oscars performance with his "A Star Is Born" co-star, Lady Gaga, did not help matters. They have both shut down rumors that they had an affair, but it could not save Cooper's relationship.

If the incidents of the recent days are any indication, Cooper and Shayk seem to be trying to recover what they lost, and fans hope they are successful. Not only is it great news for their daughter, but fans can also look forward to another Cooper baby. All fingers crossed!
