Before Ronaldo and Cooper: Who Were Charming Irina Shayk’s First Boyfriends

Irina Shayk’s career began with a victory in the Chelyabinsk beauty contest “Supermodel 2004”, where she met scout Gia Dzhikidze. He invited her to try herself as a professional model. Since 2005, Shayk began to work with Europe and the United States, but in 2007 she achieved her first big success – she got a contract with the lingerie brand Intimissimi.

So Irina became a recognizable and popular model, which, of course, was immediately followed by paparazzi and gossip reporters. And, of course, everyone was interested not only in the new appearances of the Russian beauty on the catwalk, but also in the details of her personal life.

The model’s alleged first boyfriend was Linkin Park drummer Rob Bourdon. They started dating in 2007 and their relationship lasted two years. However, there was almost no documentary evidence left – even then Irina was quite secretive and in no hurry to expose her personal show. They did not comment on their romance, so journalists had to rely only on inside information.

After breaking up with Rob, in February 2009, Irina began an affair with Brazilian model Arthur Sales. However, many believed at the time that it was just a planned affair to maintain interest in the fashion campaign, which the two starred in. Even so, the “staging” turned out to be quite long – Irina and Artur were considered a couple for the whole of 2009, and only in November they broke up.

Well, already in 2010, Shayk started dating famous football player Cristiano Ronaldo. By the way, she also met him at work – during the filming of the Armani campaign. It was the first long-term romance of the model, which was already developing in front of everyone: Krish and Irina often went out together, and on vacation they were chased by paparazzi.

They broke up in 2015, and Irina immediately plunged into a new relationship – with Bradley Cooper, from whom she later gave birth to a daughter, Leah.

Now, the model isn’t officially dating anyone, and given her background, it’s safe to say the break has been a bit longer. However, Irina continues to intrigue the public, giving rise to rumors of novels with Kanye West, then with Leonardo DiCaprio.

We can only wait and guess who her new gentleman will be.
