Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper are serving up love and advice this holiday season.
Months after the Victoria’s Secret model hard launched her romance with the Maestro actor on social media, the duo shared their secrets to feeling confident during a rare outing in New York.
“Finding joy,” Gigi, 30, told Confident Heist’s David Karmi in a Dec. 4 TikTok video. Meanwhile, Bradley, 50, attributed his confidence to “being alive.”
As for her comforting tip for those who are struggling with their self-esteem? She answered, “Take it day by day.”
Though Gigi and Bradley have kept details about their two-year romance private, they’ve been publicly creating memories together in New York over the last few months. In fact, before this latest outing, the duo were spotted holding hands while walking through Manhattan’s Chinatown in October.
At the time, Gigi—mom to daughter Khai, 5, with ex-boyfriend Zayn Malik—paired her brown, fur-lined trench coat with a white shirt and pants. Echoing her cozy look, the A Star is Born actor layered his orange sweatshirt with a black jacket, khaki pants and boots.
Bradley also embraced his fall wardrobe at the premiere of his movie, Is This Thing On?, at the New York Film Festival earlier that month, sporting an all-black trench coat and slacks combo. And while Gigi didn’t attend the red carpet event with him, she gave the director a sweet shoutout on her Instagram Stories.
“Premiere night! Congratulations to my love!” the Guest in Residence founder wrote at the time, also praising his costars Laura Dern, Will Arnett, Andra Day and “the whole crew.”
But Gigi wasn’t his only supporter, as Bradley’s 8-year-old daughter Lea—who he shares with ex Irina Shayk—also had a big hand in bringing the film together.
“She’s part of it,” he told E! News at the October film festival. “I was making A Star is Born when she was born and then Maestro, she’s in.”
He continued of his daughter’s interest in his career, “Kids, they say exactly what they think, and she has a big opinion about everything. I love it and I care what she thinks. Even with casting, we’ll look at casting auditions together.”
And as he continues to bring his little one on set, his girlfriend will cheer them on from the sidelines. Keep reading for a closer look into Bradley and Gigi’s romance…
