Gigi Hadid is wearing her heart—and her initials—around her neck. On Tuesday, May 12, 2026, the 31-year-old supermodel shared a rare, intimate glimpse into her relationship with actor Bradley Cooper, debuting a custom piece of jewelry that serves as a sparkling tribute to their budding romance.
In an era of “quiet luxury,” Hadid’s latest accessory choice is a loud and clear signal that her connection with the Maestro star is stronger than ever.
The ‘G&B’ Pendant A Custom Style Statement
Taking to her Instagram Story, the Versace muse posted a close-up of a new gold chain featuring a diamond-encrusted pendant. The piece, custom-designed by California-based jeweler Sheryl Lowe, is engraved with a “G” and a “B” joined by a delicate heart.
“Love, thank you queen @sheryllowejewelry,” Hadid captioned the post, tagging the designer. The jewelry also featured a small yellow charm, adding a personal pop of color to the romantic sentiment. This “initial jewelry” trend has long been a staple for A-list couples looking to make a subtle yet definitive public statement.
From the Met Gala to the Theater
The reveal comes just days after the 2026 Met Gala, where the couple navigated the spotlight with professional precision. Hadid made a high-fashion solo entrance on the iconic steps, while Cooper, 51, opted to skip the red carpet gauntlet, joining her later inside the venue for a more private evening.
Since confirming their romance in a Vogue interview in March 2025, Hadid has been vocal about how Cooper has influenced her lifestyle.
“Bradley has opened me up to going to the theater more, and that’s something that’s so nice to bring back into my life,” she revealed. “You want to give yourself a normal experience of dating… even for my friends who aren’t public figures, that’s hard.”

Inside the Hadid-Cooper Timeline
First linked in October 2023, the duo has mastered the art of the “low-key” A-list relationship. Despite their 20-year age gap, insiders describe the pair as “very romantic and happy,” sharing a mutual love for New York City’s cultural scene and a grounded approach to co-parenting their respective children.
By showcasing the “G&B” necklace to her millions of followers, Hadid is moving away from the secrecy of their early days, signaling a new chapter of public confidence in their partnership.
