Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid Spotted Kissing While Dining Outside in N.Y.C.

Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid are packing on the PDA.

Cooper, 49, and Hadid, 28, were seen sharing a kiss while dining outside together at Via Carota in New York City on Thursday. The couple could be seen leaning into one another and looking affectionate as they mingled with Queer Eye stars Tan France and Antoni Porowski, among others, at what appeared to be a group dinner at the West Village hotspot.

The dinner appeared to be a celebration for Porowski's 40th birthday. "Happy birthday Angel @antoni," Hadid wrote in an Instagram Story that was posted on Friday and accompanied by a video that appeared to show Porowski blowing out candles on a birthday cake.

The Maestro star and supermodel first made headlines back in October 2023 when they were seen leaving the same restaurant together, as shown in photos published by the Daily Mail. Although a source told PEOPLE at the time that Cooper and Hadid were simply "having fun" together, they also shared that Hadid has "had sort of a crush on [Cooper] for a while."

“[They have] things in common so it’s possible to see it progress," the source said at the time. “It appears super casual now, but they both have kids, big careers, busy lives and understand what life is like in these circles. It’s cute… and there is an attraction.”

Cooper and Hadid have not yet publicly confirmed their relationship, but the pair have appeared to grow closer over the last several months. After the 2024 Golden Globes, Cooper's mother, Gloria, who was the star's date to the January awards ceremony, joined the couple for a night out at Giorgio Baldi in Los Angeles, as photos published by Page Six showed.

"They were with a group of friends and all had fun. Bradley and Gigi looked happy together," a source told PEOPLE about the January dinner. "They weren’t overly affectionate, but it was still obvious that they are dating. There were lots of loving glances and flirting."

"Whenever his mom spoke, she listened enthusiastically and kept smiling," the source added of Hadid's interactions with Gloria. "It looked like they were getting to know each other."

Cooper and Hadid were most recently spotted together in London on Jan. 26, where they were seen holding hands while out for a walk.

In February, Cooper was seen yet again sporting a sweater from Hadid's clothing brand, Guest in Residence, while out for a solo stroll in New York City. He has been photographed wearing items from Hadid's brand several times in the months since they first sparked relationship rumors.
