Hadid (31) and Cooper (51) have been together for nearly three years, but this is their first Met Gala as a couple. They first sparked romance rumors in 2023 after they were spotted dining together. A source had previously told People that their relationship was "going really well" and getting "more and more serious" after spending time together in Philadelphia. The couple went Instagram official in May 2025 during Hadid's 30th birthday celebrations.
