When it comes to the Super Bowl, some bring star-studded entourages, others bring lucky charms. Bradley Cooper? He brought the best teammate of all — his 7-year-old daughter, Lea Cooper.
On Sunday, February 9, the 50-year-old Hangover actor arrived at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans with Lea by his side, both dressed in Eagles green.

The NFL shared a clip on X (formerly Twitter) of the father-daughter duo holding hands as they walked through the stadium, ready to cheer on Philadelphia against the Kansas City Chiefs.
"Look at his lovely daughter bleeding green!!" one person wrote in the comments section.
"Holy s*** it's the American Sniper himself," another quipped.
"BRADLEY ????????????????," chimed in a third.
"Go Birds ???? Bradley is at every home game," someone else pointed out.
"Love the behind the scenes stuff we get on X!" added another.
This isn't Bradley and Lea's first Eagles outing together. The two were spotted at last month's NFC Championship game when the Eagles took down the Washington Commanders. A week earlier, the Grammy winner, who shares Lea with ex-girlfriend Irina Shayk, watched the Eagles play the Rams, but that time, he had a different game-day partner — his current girlfriend, Gigi Hadid.

Bradley and the 29-year-old fashion model started dating in late 2023 after the pair were spotted dining together in New York City. Since then, their relationship has quietly grown, with the two keeping things low-key while balancing their careers and parenting responsibilities.
"They are having fun," a source told People in October 2023. "It appears super casual now, but they both have kids, big careers, busy lives, and understand what life is like in these circles."
By the summer of 2024, an insider described them as being in a "full-blown relationship."
