Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid have had a turbulent relationship since they first got together late last year, and it seems the actor is already working on solidifying their future together.
Although the relationship has only lasted nine months, the 49-year-old lovestruck actor is ready to take their romance to the next level and propose. According to insiders, he is “determined” to marry the supermodel, who is 20 years his junior.
The couple, who each have one daughter, have also reportedly discussed having children together, expanding their “blended functional family” with their exes Zayn Malik and Irina Shayk.
“Bradley has already decided he’s going to propose to Gigi,” an insider exclusively told DailyMail.com. “It’s not even a question. They’ve talked about family and marriage early on in their relationship.
“They’ve been committed to each other and their plans for a while now, but it’s just a matter of when.”

They continued, “Bradley currently has a few projects in production but nothing planned after that. He wants to take some time off to focus on this and give Gigi the attention and love she deserves.”
The Oscar winner won’t face any resistance from those closest to Gigi, as he “has the blessing of her family, friends and even her daughter.”
Gigi shares Khai, three, with his ex-boyfriend Zayn, 31, while Bradley is father to daughter Lea De Seine, seven, with his ex Irina, 38.
The source explained how Gigi and Zayn co-parent, continuing, “Bradley met Zayn. They’ve all moved on and are dedicated parents, so there’s never an issue. They’ve been in touch multiple times with their kids, all of whom they co-parent amicably.
“Plus, Gigi and Zayn’s daughter gets along so well with Bradley and Irina’s daughter. She almost acts like a big sister to her. They have a vested interest in becoming a functional blended family.”
Another source confirmed that Bradley’s feelings for Gigi were strengthened by her support during his disappointing awards season for Maestro.
Despite receiving multiple nominations, the actor failed to win any major awards. Gigi was there to console him.
“The years he worked on Maestro, it was disappointing that he didn’t win what he thought the film should have won, but it was Gigi who helped him through it,” they said.
The 49-year-old Maestro star and the California-born beauty, 29, were first linked nine months ago, and their private relationship has gone from strength to strength
“They are each other’s person and are there for each other in such a way that it feels to both of them like spending the rest of their lives together is the next phase.”
They hinted at an impending engagement, adding, “No one should be surprised to be engaged and married within a year. They’re ready to take the next step.”
The couple have not spoken openly about their relationship and have kept a relatively low profile since they first started seeing each other late last year.
But last month, they were photographed on a night out in New York, full of public displays of affection.
According to Page Sixthe lovebirds were spotted “cuddling and kissing” while dining with friends at Tribeca restaurant Forgione.
The couple was also spotted dancing to Stevie Nicks at the BottleRock music festival in Napa, California, over Memorial Day weekend.

And before that, they visited Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour in Paris, together with the singer’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
Travis, 34, who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs, told his New Heights podcast that he had a great time with the duo, describing them as “amazing.”
Bradley and Gigi seemingly confirmed their red-hot romance in January in London when they were pictured holding hands. This was just a month after Bradley bought a house near his girlfriend’s family farm in Pennsylvania.
The home is reportedly located near Gigi’s mother Yolanda Hadid’s $4 million ranch in New Hope, a town with a population of less than 3,000.
To show how modern their future blended family could be, Bradley and Gigi got together with the help of his ex-girlfriend Irina.

The insider told DailyMail.com: ‘Bradley met Zayn. They’ve all moved on and are devoted parents so there’s never been a problem.’
“Gigi was introduced to Bradley through Irina and their mutual friends in the industry,” a source told The Messenger.
The insider said, “Gigi and Irina have been close for years, and Gigi and Bradley have hung out together on occasion, but in social situations it’s always been friendly.
“Gigi and Bradley had recently been in contact and bonding over their daughters, when Bradley asked her out. He pursued her and she was definitely interested and excited.”
Before the romance, Gigi was in a relationship with Titanic actor Leonardo DiCaprio, 49.
