At the recent 96th Annual Oscar Awards, Bradley Cooper made a heartwarming appearance with someone special by his side – his mother, Gloria Campano. Dressed in a stylish double-breasted black suit, Cooper accompanied his 83-year-old mother, who turned heads with her elegant ensemble.
Fans were quick to notice the resemblance between Cooper and Campano, with one remarking, “This is cute. He looks like his mom too.” Another fan even mistook Campano for Jennifer Aniston, exclaiming, “I swear I thought that was Jennifer Aniston!”
Despite the endearing nature of Cooper’s choice, some fans expressed their opinions that he should have taken someone else as his date. One fan playfully joked, “He’s got a pocket mom!” referring to the height difference between Cooper and his mother. There were even suggestions that it was time for Cooper to grow up and leave his mother at home during awards ceremonies. Some even speculated that his close relationship with his mother was the reason he couldn’t settle down in a relationship.
However, no matter the mixed reactions, one thing is clear – Gloria Campano holds a special place in Bradley Cooper’s life. Not only is she a former NBC affiliate, but she has also recently moved in with Cooper in Los Angeles. This decision showcases Cooper’s deep dedication to his family and the close bond he shares with his mother.
“I love having my mother living with me. I wouldn’t have it any other way,” Cooper shared, emphasizing the significance of their connection. He frequently invites his mother to accompany him on his travels, including a memorable month they spent together in Paris.
It’s within this context that Campano’s presence at the Oscars, and in Cooper’s life, becomes even more meaningful. Having his mother by his side is not just a gesture of affection but a testament to the strength and comfort derived from their deep familial bond.
As previously reported, Bradley Cooper attended this year’s Golden Globes, where his date created quite a buzz. After the red carpet event, the actor and his mom were spotted entering the famous family-managed restaurant Giorgio Baldi.
Amidst the pandemic, Cooper, his daughter, and their two dogs stayed together to provide added protection for Gloria, who had a colostomy bag and was at risk of complications from the virus. Cooper shared, “We live in a little townhouse. Thankfully, there’s a backyard. I’m running a one-man preschool. We get up, we do swim class in the bathtub.”
Despite his dedication to his craft, Cooper is also a devoted father. He once left a press conference after receiving an emergency call from his daughter’s school, exemplifying his commitment to being there for his family.
In the end, Bradley Cooper’s choice to bring his mother as his date to the Oscars speaks volumes about the love and appreciation he has for her. Their close bond is a reminder of the joys and importance of family in his life.
