Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid are reportedly so committed to their future together that they are already planning to tie the knot in 2026, according to insider information obtained by the Daily Mail.
Insiders disclose that the 50-year-old actor has taken significant steps, including a heartfelt conversation with 30-year-old supermodel Gigi Hadid’s mother, Yolanda Hadid. During this discussion, he not only expressed his intention to marry Gigi but also sought her blessing to propose.
The high-profile duo has been romantically linked since October 2023.
An informant revealed to the Daily Mail, “Bradley approached Yolanda to ask for Gigi’s hand in marriage. He wanted her to understand his seriousness about Gigi and his desire to establish a strong family with her in New York.”
Cooper has also shared his plans with his own mother, Gloria Campano, emphasizing their close relationship. “They are very close, and he keeps her informed about everything,” the source noted about their bond.
Gigi Hadid is aware that a proposal is on the horizon and has discussed this exciting development with her parents, Yolanda and Mohamed Hadid, indicating her readiness to become Mrs. Cooper, as per the Daily Mail’s findings.

‘Bradley asked Yolanda for Gigi’s hand in marriage,’ a source has told Daily Mail. ‘He wants her to know how serious he is about Gigi and how he plans to build a solid family with her in New York’
‘Her mom, Yolanda, is on board so that was a no-brainer. But Gigi telling her father she wants to marry Bradley is a big step, it’s much more official,’ added the insider.
A big reason Cooper and Hadid want to get married is their children, as they want them to be raised together.
Cooper shares daughter Lea De Seine, eight, with his model ex Irina Shayk, 39, and Hadid shares daughter Khai Malik, five, with ex Zayn Malik, 32.
The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Cooper and Hadid for comment.
On Saturday, the couple looked more in love than ever as they held hands in New York City.
Both beamed as they left a Broadway theater, where they had enjoyed a performance of Samuel Beckett’s Waiting For Godot.

The pair met in October 2023 at a children’s party attended by both their kids, Hadid has revealed in the past, and bonded immediately.
Thought Hadid and Cooper only went Instagram official in April of this year.
‘I feel so lucky to be 30! I feel so lucky for every high and low – for all the lessons and gifts both have brought me. To get to feel it all!’ Hadid wrote in the post, marking her milestone birthday.
‘I’m so lucky to be a mom, friend, partner, sister, daughter, colleague to some of the most unbelievable humans!!’
In March, the cover girl had told Vogue that being with the A Star Is Born actor has helped to give her a ‘normal experience of dating.’
‘Bradley has opened me up to going to the theater more, and that’s something that’s so nice to bring back into my life,’ she said.

‘You want to give yourself a normal experience of dating and even for my friends who aren’t public figures, that’s hard. Where do you go? And, what? You just start talking to people?’ Hadid added.
‘I think just getting to the point where knowing what you want and deserve in a relationship is essential… and you both do work separately to come together and be the best partner that you can be. I just feel really lucky. Yeah, lucky’s the word.’
Hadid went on to gush about her beau: ‘I respect him so much as a creative and I feel that he gives so much to me: encouragement and, just, belief.’
Last year, as the model was gearing up to walk in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, she revealed that Cooper was supporting her while ‘watching from home.’
‘He is on dad duty but so supportive,’ she said.

Though Bradley was never married to Irina Shayk (pictured), he was previously wed to Jennifer Esposito for less than a year before they divorced after just four months of marriage in 2007; seen in 2007
Cooper and his last girlfriend, Shayk, were first linked in 2015 before going public as a couple in 2016, welcoming their little girl in 2017 and then parting ways two years later.
At the time, it was reported that the split was due to them ‘spending time apart’ and ‘living totally separate lives,’ according to People.
However, the two have remained on friendly terms.
Meanwhile, Hadid dated One Direction singer Malik for nearly six years before they called it quits in October 2021.
Cooper was married to actress Jennifer Esposito for a year from 2006-2007.
