Earlier this year, rekindling romance rumors surfaced between the two since musings of possibly trying for baby number two hit the media, along with some random PDA photos of them holding hands and tapping their butts. But in the rare interview, she talked about how she and Cooper make their daughter Lea their priority, and take her everywhere together since they have no nanny.

“We both take Lea everywhere with us,” she said about their co-parenting strategy. “We always find a way. He’s the best father Lea and I could dream of. It always works, but it always works because we make it work.”

She also added that her daughter Lea is at the pinnacle of being go-with-the-flow already. “She’s super easy. Two days ago, I had to go to the gym, so I just got her a drawing book and said, ‘Mama’s working out.’ She was drawing for an hour,” she added. “Then we went to the Michael Kors fitting. She met all the girls. Michael gave her a bag. She drew him a kitty cat.” (Okay, but how adorable is that?!)

So this may explain why they’re almost always seen together, but the PDA? That’s still a bit of a mystery, to be honest.

For those who don’t know, back in 2015, Shayk and the A Star is Born actor were together from 2015 to 2019, but continue to co-parent their daughter together.
