American actor, Bradley Cooper, and Russian supermodel, Irina Shayk, have decided to go their separate ways, after four years of dating, according to multiple media reports.
A source close to the couple told Us Weekly recently, “They haven’t been getting along for a while. They aren’t calling it quits yet, but they are not in a great place.”
Another source told E online, “They want to stay together for their daughter, but neither of them is very happy.”
The news of them being unhappy together gained momentum after Shayk recently moved out of their Los Angeles mansion, taking along their two-year-old daughter, Lea De Seine Shayk Cooper, with her.
Cooper, 44, and Shayk, 33, were first linked in April 2015 when they were spotted attending a Broadway show together. Though they have been steady over the years, they kept their relationship strictly under wraps.
Talking about it, Shayk told Glamour UK earlier this year, “I have a lot of friends who share a lot of their personal life on Instagram or social media, very publicly. I admire it and I think it’s great – but I think it’s all about personal choice.”
Speculations that something may not be right between the two first surfaced when Cooper’s intimate performance with his A Star Is Born co-star Lady Gaga at the Academy Awards this year made headlines worldwide.
Though both Gaga and Cooper have denied any probable romance, fans believe the chemistry between them is too obvious to miss.
Before hooking up with Cooper, Shayk was in a five-year relationship with football star, Cristiano Ronaldo, from 2010 to 2015.
In October 2006, Cooper became engaged to actress Jennifer Esposito. The couple married in December. In May 2007, Esposito filed for a divorce that was finalized in November.
