Supermodel Gigi Hadid gave fans a rare glimpse of her softer side this week.
The 30-year-old catwalk queen stepped into full “stepmum mode” as she enjoyed a sweet day out with boyfriend Bradley Cooper’s daughter, Lea De Seine Shayk Cooper.
She was all smiles as she bonded with nine-year-old Lea outside American Sniper actor’s plush West Village townhouse in New York City on Wednesday.
Onlookers said Gigi “beamed with joy” as she chatted and laughed with the youngster, showing just how close she’s become with the 51-year-old actor’s family.
Lea is the daughter Bradley shares with his ex, Irina Shayk, with whom he split amicably back in 2019.
But there’s clearly no drama here as insiders say the blended family dynamic is working seamlessly.
For the unversed, Gigi and The Hangover star first crossed paths at a children’s party in 2023 before quietly confirming their romance in 2025.
Despite keeping things low-key and also skipping red carpets, the pair have been enjoying cosy playdates with their children, including her five-year-old daughter Khai, whom she shares with ex Zayn Malik.
Behind the scenes, Gigi and Zayn are said to be laser-focused on co-parenting, planning custody schedules “months in advance” especially with his upcoming tour looming.
Recently, the former One Direction star revealed that his daughter listens to his music and even gives him a thumbs up or down to show whether she likes it.
It's worth noting that the outing comes just days after Gigi proved she’s beauty and grace under pressure, after a minor car bump near her family’s Pennsylvania farm.
Witnesses claimed she was “incredibly kind”, even stopping for selfies.
And if that wasn’t enough, the star also recently shut down disturbing claims linked to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, making it clear she won’t let false narratives overshadow real victims.
