Supermodel Irina Shayk recently shared insights into her co-parenting relationship with ex-partner Bradley Cooper, as they navigate raising their 6-year-old daughter, Lea. In an interview with Elle, Shayk spoke about their collaborative efforts in putting their family first, despite their busy schedules.

According to the 27-year-old model, Shayk described Cooper as "the best father Lea and I could dream of." Despite their demanding careers, the former couple has always found a way to make their co-parenting dynamic work. Shayk emphasized that their successful co-parenting is primarily due to their shared commitment and dedication.

Both Shayk and Cooper actively involve Lea in their individual routines and take her along with them wherever possible. Shayk mentioned a recent incident where she needed to go to the gym, but she made sure to keep Lea occupied by providing her with a drawing book. Shayk stated, "She's super easy. She was drawing for an hour, and then we went to the Michael Kors fitting. She met all the girls."

It seems Lea has quickly adapted to the fashion world, as she was gifted a bag by Michael Kors. In return, the young girl expressed her gratitude by drawing a kitty cat for the designer. Shayk and Cooper are determined to instill important values in their daughter as she grows up amidst a privileged environment.

Reflecting on Lea's upbringing, Shayk mentioned that her daughter is experiencing a vastly different environment compared to her own childhood in Russia. Living in the West Village and traveling to various countries has become a norm for Lea. However, both parents want her to understand the value of hard work and appreciate the efforts required to achieve success.

Although Shayk and Cooper split in 2019 after four years together, they have maintained a friendly co-parenting relationship. The former couple continues to spend time together as a family, evident from a vacation they took together in August. Shayk had shared an image on her Instagram Story of Cooper enjoying some relaxation time in a kayak during the trip.

The amicable co-parenting efforts showcased by Irina Shayk and Bradley Cooper serve as a testament to their commitment towards providing a stable and nurturing environment for their daughter. Their dedication to putting family first, despite their high-profile careers, exemplifies their love and concern for Lea's well-being.

As Shayk and Cooper continue their co-parenting journey, they serve as positive role models for others navigating similar situations, with their unwavering commitment to collaboration and prioritizing their daughter's happiness and growth.
