Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk's relationship is reportedly over after rumours it has been "hanging on by a thread" in recent months.
And while neither Bradley nor Irina - who share two-year-old daughter Lea De Seine - have confirmed the news, it's no surprise their relationship has come under immense pressure.
Thanks to Bradley's role in A Star Is Born, Twitter has been awash with comments like "I wish [Lady Gaga and Bradley] were a real love story the way they look at each other" and "They have amazing chemistry".
Now, fans are convinced those comments are the reason for the couple's alleged breakup - with many pointing fingers among themselves.

It's fair to say that audiences weren't subtle about hoping for a real-life tryst between Bradley and his co-star, Lady Gaga, after seeing them star side-by-side in the blockbuster smash.
In fact, after their chemistry-filled Oscars performance in February, some went as far as suggesting that something romantic was already going on.
Now, people are wondering whether speculation about Bradley and Gaga - whose own recent split from fiancé Christian Carino further fuelled rumours - could have lead to the breakdown of his relationship with Irina.

It's hard to imagine that those comments wouldn't have cause upset, right? And fans seem to think so too.
"Do you realize what that probably did to Cooper and Shayk's relationship?" one fumed. "Not to put speculation on the cause of their split or anything, but it definitely doesn't help that social media was FILLED with stuff like that for months.
"I couldn't imagine the toll that took. And for those of you saying "oh yay! Maybe they (Gaga/Cooper) can finally be together", then screw you. Cooper has a CHILD with Shayk."
"I always thought it was super disrespectful to Irina how people were pushing Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper as a couple," another wrote. "Just saying. If that was your spouse how would you feel?".

"You people finally destroyed Bradley and Irina's relationship!! Y'all kept pushing for Gaga and Brad so bad.... Hope y'all happy now," said a third.
Another added: "There's nothing weirder than people being excited that Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk broke up in hopes of him and Lady Gaga getting together... like they're a family, they have a child... this isn't easy."
If Irina and Bradley have split, it's likely they need all the support they can get right now, rather than matchmaking.
