Gigi Hadid and actor Bradley Cooper publicly confirmed their relationship with an adorable Instagram update on the occasion of the supermodel’s 30th birthday party in New York City. On May 3, 2025, the supermodel shared an all-black photo of the couple exchanging smooch on top of an enormous chocolate cake on the occasion of the supermodel’s 30th birthday party in the Big Apple. The update, full of love and appreciation, gave fans an inside peek into the couple’s private lives, who were thrilled and creating whirlwind on social media.
Hadid celebrated the milestone 30 on April 23, 2025, but the celebration actually got going two days later at L’Avenue at Saks Fifth Avenue, the party spilling into the chic Le Chalet cocktail lounge. The small birthday party was an A-list soiree, A-lister party guests rubbing shoulders with Hadid and sister Bella, as well as mama Yolanda and dad Mohamed. The vibe was convivial and celebratory, onlookers cheering as the birthday pair shared smoochies all night long. The birthday girl was dazzling in white corset top, black leather pants, and shiny white heels from Giuseppe Zanotti, the birthday boy dressing down in Philadelphia Eagles caps and gelled-back hair. A three-level cake that read
“Happy birthday mommy”
in honor of Hadid’s daughter Khai put a heartwarming family spin on the glamourous affair.
On May 3, Hadid took to Instagram with a carousel of black-and-white photos capturing the night’s magic. The standout? A candid shot of her cradling Cooper’s face as they locked lips over the cake, surrounded by smiling friends snapping pics. In her caption, Hadid reflected on turning 30: The sweet photo, which included adorable moments with Khai and the women in her life, was one big love letter to life and relationship and the new chapter signaled by Cooper’s arrival. The comments were flooded within minutes with heart-eyes emojis and the duo being labeled
“goals” and “adorable”
by fans.
Hadid and Cooper’s relationship first ignited in the fall of 2023, when the pair was photographed dining at Via Carota in New York City. By January 2024, they were walking hand-in-hand through the streets of London, and in March, shared the first kiss during another Via Carota dinner date, with friends such as Antoni Porowski in tow. Their relationship grew closer with tender moments—like being at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour in Paris in May 2024 and an A-list girls’ night with Swift and Selena Gomez in November. Hadid shared details about their relationship in an interview with Vogue in March 2025, saying that the two met at a friend’s child’s birthday party.
Both Hadid and Cooper bring parenthood to their relationship, creating a blended family dynamic. Hadid shares 4-year-old Khai with ex Zayn Malik, while Cooper co-parents 8-year-old Lea De Seine with ex Irina Shayk. Insiders say the couple prioritizes their kids, with Khai and Lea spending time together and forming a sweet bond. Hadid’s birthday cake message from Khai underscored her role as a devoted mom, while Cooper’s support for Hadid’s parenting has strengthened their partnership. Their shared values as parents have helped them navigate the complexities of fame and family life.
The Instagram reveal sent social media into overdrive. On X, fans gushed, with one writing,
“Gigi and Bradley are so cute together!”
Celebrities like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Will Arnett dropped congratulatory comments on the post. Media outlets like People and E! Online hailed the moment as a
“big step” for the private pair. However, some X users raised eyebrows at their 20-year age gap, with one calling it “a bit creepy.”
Despite mixed sentiments, the overwhelming reaction was one of joy, with fans celebrating their chemistry and commitment.
Eagle-eyed fans noticed a gold ring on Hadid’s left hand during the party, igniting engagement speculation. Insiders quickly clarified to People that while the couple is “very happy” and discusses a future together, they’re not rushing to the altar.
“They’re committed, but engagement is a big step,”
a source said. The ring, though sparkly, seems more a fashion statement than a promise—at least for now. Still, fans on X are dreaming of wedding bells, with one tweeting,
“I can see Gigi and Bradley getting married and having kids!”
