Bradley has been spotted since last October going on dates with none other than internationally famous supermodel Gigi Hadid.
Recently, he was seen taking the clotheshorse to Broadway's Lunt-Fontanne Theatre to enjoy a performance of the classic 1979 musical Sweeney Todd.
Near the beginning of this year, Bradley gave an interview to the British Film Institute and remarked on the glare of public scrutiny on his personal life.
'I definitely think I'm a private person,' he reflected. 'But you almost sort of have to give over to the fact that it's impossible to be private these days.'
The Hangover star acknowledged: 'So it's more about acceptance of the reality, instead of creating my own reality that doesn't exist.'
Bradley and Irina were first linked in 2015 before going public as a couple in 2016, welcoming their little girl in 2017 and then going their separate ways two years later.
Shortly after their breakup TMZ reported they had decided to split custody and to both remain based in New York in order to make joint parenting easier.

In fact she and Bradley are such close co-parents that they have made sure to live just blocks apart in Greenwich Village in order to raise their daughter.
'He's a full-on, hands-on dad - no nanny,' Irina told Highsnobiety. 'Lea went on holiday with him for almost two weeks - I didn't call them once.'
On the work front, Bradley directed last year's film Maestro, a biopic of Leonard Bernstein, the Broadway composer of such shows as West Side Story and Candide.
Leonard was married to Chilean actress Felicia Montealegre from 1951 until her death of cancer in 1978 in spite of the fact she knew he was gay.
Bradley played the leading man, with Carey Mulligan as Felicia in a cast that includes Maya Hawke, Matt Bomer and Sarah Silverman.
The film found itself on the business end of a 'Jewface' controversy while it was being made, after an on-set picture emerged of Bradley wearing a comically large prosthetic nose while in character as Leonard.
