Bradley Cooper Is Sending ‘Very Mixed Messaging’ About Proposing To Model Girlfriend Gigi Hadid – Globe Magazine

Bradley Cooper is dealing with major proposal nerves linked to money worries, insiders say, that keep the big-screen hunk from popping the question and slipping an engagement ring on the finger of Gigi Hadid.

Sources say that the 50-year-old Hangover star has been fretting over the idea of merging his finances with the 30-year-old supermodel he’s dated since late 2023.

Meanwhile, pals are urging him to put those lingering fears aside and seal the deal — especially now that Gigi’s best friend Taylor Swift is engaged to Travis Kelce.

“Gigi’s not pressuring him and has ordered everyone in her life to do the same, but it’s no secret she’s waiting for this to happen,” says an insider.

“And with Taylor and Travis getting engaged, it’s definitely bringing heat to the situation. Of course, Gigi is thrilled for Taylor. But it’s a reminder of what she doesn’t have.”

“Bradley talks about marrying like it’s a sure thing, but then flips and says he’s stressed about lawyers and paperwork and prenups, so it’s very mixed messaging.”

The Maestro star has been married once — a whirlwind four-mouth affair with actress Jennifer Esposito in 2007.

He then became one of Hollywood’s most notorious bachelors, dating Renée Zellweger, Jennifer Lopez, Zoe Saldana, Suki Waterhouse and model Irina Shayk, mom of his daughter, Lea, 8.

He and Gigi hooked up after her yearlong affair with his pal Leonardo DiCaprio.

She’s previously been linked to singers Joe Jonas, Cody Simpson and Zayn Malik, dad of her daughter, Khai, 4.

Adds an insider, “Gigi’s family and friends are trying to give him the benefit of the doubt and trust that he’s going to work up the guts to take this next step before long.”

“But it’s a little suspicious, given his history of being so noncommittal. He really needs to get out of his own way and just do it because Gigi is a catch and she’s not going to wait forever.”
