Bradley Cooper embraces autumn in a layered look during NYC stroll... as 'girlfriend' Gigi Hadid receives death threats over Palestine support
Bradley Cooper was seen out in New York City on Wednesday amid reports of his rumored love interest Gigi Hadid receiving death threats over her support of Palestine.
The 48-year-old actor — who is 'very excited' about dating Hadid, 28 — was out by himself in the Big Apple as he donned aviator sunglasses and rocked a short haircut.
The Oscar winning star was dressed in a layered look featuring a dusty gray jacket worn over a lighter gray hooded sweater.
Underneath them he donned a white crew neck T-shirt, and he added a pair of blue trousers.
The father-of-one, who shares six-year-old daughter Lea with ex Irina Shayk, finished his look with a pair of Travis Scott x Jordan sneakers.

He looked typically handsome with his graying beard neatly trimmed.
Cooper walked with his hands in the pockets of his pants and his phone was tucked into the pocket of his jacket.
The walk through the Big Apple comes as Hadid, who is half-Palestinian, has been speaking out in support of Palestine during the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Since sharing a personal statement on social media and reposting the statements of others, it has been reported that Gigi and her family — including supermodel sister Bella, 27, and brother Anwar, 24 — have had to change their phone numbers due to death threats.
It was recently noted that 'Gigi was introduced to Bradley through Irina and their mutual friends in the industry,' according to a source who spoke to The Messenger.
'Gigi and Irina have been close over the years while working together, and Gigi and Bradley have hung out before, but it has always been friendly in social settings,' the insider added.
The former couple split in 2019, but spend time together as they co-parent their child.
Meanwhile, Gigi is mom to three-year-old daughter Khai from her past relationship with Zayn Malik.

Taylor Swift has lended a helpful hand in Bradley and Gigi's burgeoning bond by offering up her Rhode Island home to the couple.
'Taylor is a total romantic and loves playing cupid for her friends,' a source told the Mirror.
'Even though Gigi and Bradley have their own properties in New York, they wanted somewhere more private to spend time getting to know each other,' the insider dished.
'Taylor was only too happy to help. She said the door to her home is always open for them to use.'
