The actor sparked reconciliation rumours when he was spotted dancing with his ex at the festival, but it seems he really has moved on. Bradley Cooper may have sparked reconciliation rumours when he was spotted dancing with ex Suki Waterhouse at Glastonbury this weekend – but it seems it’s still on with model Irina Shayk.
The actor and his rumoured new girlfriend were spotted on a London date night last night, but reportedly avoided being snapped together as Bradley left their car early. The pair have been spotted on a series of dates recently, first snapped kissing at the start of last month in New York.
It seems Bradley’s meet with his ex hasn’t stopped their romance, and while they weren’t pictured together, they appeared to arrive back in the same car. Irina stunned on the night out in a cut-out black dress, showing off her tiny figure and carrying a statement bright blue bag which she used to try and cover her face.
Adding tiny strappy heels, the star showed off her tanned legs and wore her hair loose for the glammed up evening. Meanwhile Bradley wore a more casual cap and tan jacket as he was later seen, adding jeans and not attempting to hide his face unlike his rumoured other half. Bradley and ex Suki Waterhouse were spotted throwing some shapes together at Glastonbury.
The pair split in March 2015 after dating for two years but you can expect the rumour mill to be buzzing after they were seen dancing the night away at the music festival on Friday night. The Hollywood hunk remained coy about the possibilities of a reconciliation with the 23-year-old beauty.
Bradley told the Mail on Sunday: “I wouldn’t say we’re back together.” Well what IS going on then Bradley?
