Beach Babes
Among the pleasures that model Irina Shayk shared she was in love with in an October 2024 Instagram post: Time spent on the beach, sunflowers, pumpkins and Lea de Seine, the 7-year-old she shares with former boyfriend Bradley Cooper.
Wild Child
"Watch out for KITTY CATSSS," the runway regular declared in a June 2024 post, sharing a slew of feline-themed throwbacks of her little girl.
The Cat's Meow
In the same carousel of photos, Irina included this snap of Lea leaning into her wild side. And the Victoria's Secret model has shared that her little one is the purrfect companion.
She and Bradley "both take Lea everywhere with us," she declared to Elle in 2023. "She's super easy.” Among their outings: A fitting with Michael Kors. Lea left with a goody bag from the designer and in return, shared Irina, "She drew him a kitty cat."
A Star Is Born
After making a cameo in Dad's Oscar-nominated 2023 biopic Maestro (Bradley co-wrote, starred in, directed and produced the movie), Lea made her red carpet debut at the L.A. premiere that December.
Another Look
"She was great,” Bradley gushed of his daughter's performance. “She was really awesome.”
Bradley's Muse
Though Irina didn't attend the L.A. premiere, she did provide her Instagram followers with this glimpse of a private screening. Unsurprisingly, Bradley named his production company after his pride and joy. "He's the best father Lea and I could dream of," Irina told Elle. "It always works, but it always works because we make it work."
Dad's Plus One
Bradley credits his daughter (who joined him to watch A Star is Born costar Dave Chappelle receive the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor at Washington, D.C.'s Kennedy Center in 2019) with making him a better man.
"I want her to have as much foundation as she can—I think about how my relationship with my daughter impacts her growth and the journey she's gonna be on," he said on a February 2024 episode of Armchair Expert with Dax Shepherd. "The least amount of damage I can do to my daughter—please let me work on myself."
