In fact, the Russian model and the cover-girl of Sports Illustrated seemed serene and confident while talking about balance between work and motherhood in brief interviews this week to present his new fashion collection.

"I think if you like your job and, you know, you can find time for everything and you know, I found myself finding time for everything," said Shayk, who has a 19-month-old daughter with Cooper . She was chatting with Extra and E! News to team up with Ellen Tracy for a new collection of capsules at Lord & Taylor.

"We can see a lot of women working and working a lot," said Shayk, 32, at Extra.

The Extra reporter asked a quick question about Cooper, asking Shayk if she was proud of him for the huge critical and box office success of "A Star is Born", in which he directed and played the main role.

"Of course I am!" Said Shayk.

But that's apparently all she has to say about Cooper. She and Cooper have had a private conversation about their relationship since they started dating in 2015.

But the success of "A Star is Born" and Cooper's on-screen and off-screen chemistry with Lady Gaga propelled the actor into the limelight in a way that even a listener like him is probably not used to it.

This means that Cooper's privacy is also scrutinized. The same goes for Lady Gaga, who probably encouraged her to finally confirm her commitment to the talented agent Christian Carino, while wearing a pink diamond engagement ring worth an estimated $ 1 million.

The New York Times tried to grill Cooper about his personal life and his journey for a major profile, but he was reluctant. Meanwhile, it did not go unnoticed that he and Lady Gaga constantly quarreled in the press tour of their film that opened on October 5. They often talked about their "instant" connection and how creative they were.

After bringing significant sexual warmth to their roles as musicians' fans, Cooper and Lady Gaga also engaged in numerous PDAs at press and premiere events. On the red carpet at film festivals in Venice, Toronto or the United Kingdom, they held hands, much longer than what one could expect from a man and a girl. A woman who only talks to herself about good friends and admirers.

Around the same time, the tabloids and paparazzi began following Cooper and Shayk when they ventured out of their homes in New York to go out for dinner or to take their daughter to the park.

It was after one of these outings that Page Six said that Cooper and Shayk were "miserable together" and that they were "miserable" for months.

Spies at Time Warner Center's Masa restaurant told Page Six that the couple did not look "happy" when they had eaten there earlier this month.

"The couple is sitting," said a spy. "He was wearing a hoodie and it was fresh – no makeup – and they barely spoke to each other at the beginning of the meal. Halfway, she started looking sideways and was in a bad mood.

Contrast Cooper's stated behavior towards Shayk in Masa and the way Lady Gaga and he spoke in various interviews. Cooper called Lady Gaga "revelation" and said in interviews that he could not have done the film without her.

"I think the most important thing I've learned is that the sky is the limit if you find a mate artistically and have a project," he said, according to New magazine's The Cut York. "There is no dream too big. What people can do together is so much more powerful than they can do themselves. "

Cooper also testified that he and Lady Gaga felt an "instant connection" when they first met at his home. This was partly due to their East Coast roots and their shared love for Italian cuisine.

Cooper said, "She went down the stairs and we went to her deck and I saw her in the eye. Honestly, it clicked and I went "Wow".

In another interview, Lady Gaga said that Cooper was the "revelation" when she discovered how good he was a singer. She said this discovery came when he asked if they could sing together at their first meeting.
