According to sources all over the place, it seems like there may be trouble in squinty paradise for Renee Zellweger and Bradley Cooper. British sources claim that Bradley told Renee that he wanted to date other people, and that he‘s “enjoying his status as a hot successful star and doesn’t want to settle…He’s told Renee he wants space — but at the same time he’s started getting flirty with Hollywood producer Holly Wiersma.” Unfortunately for Renee, it seems this Holly woman isn’t the only person Bradley is allegedly bangin’. Star Magazine has a report claiming that Bradley is still seeing his ex, a woman named Isabella Brewster. Isabella is the younger sister of Jordana Brewster, and sources claim that Bradley has been hooking up with her on downlow whenever Renee is away. Here’s more from Star:
Bradley hasn’t quite cut ties with sexy brunette Isabella Brewster since they ended their year-long relationship in the spring. “Bradley had a scorching relationship with her,” says a source. “It was hard for him to let go of the passion between them.” SO while he got serious with Renee, he was hooking up with Isabella behind Renee’s back.
Throughout his summer of love with Renee, he was dropping into LA for casual hookups with Isabella at his Venice Beach pad.
“He wanted to keep it hush-hush, so usually they’d just grab takeout and stay in… he’d call and tell her, ‘Bring your hot self over here and don’t forget dinner!’”
Isabella always knew about Bradley’s budding relationship with Renee, but was fine with being his lady on the side. “She’s thriller that a big star like Bradley is into her… she gets a high from it.”
Renee has “no idea.” The source says: “Bradley was telling her she was the only one, and that he was falling in love with her. She’s clueless.”
Even though Bradley and Isabella have cooled, “He’s been missing her a lot.” So he texted her and suggested another hookup: “He wanted to do a home cooked gourmet dinner with candlelight and music. He is going to do whatever it takes to keep her. He sees no moral problem dating her and Renee at the same time, and he doesn’t care that he might break Renee’s heart.”
“Renee has built it up in her head that he’s this perfect guy,” says the source. Renee is even considering marriage! “She’s been really pushing for a proposal.

Meh. I still think there might be something to the gay rumors, no matter how often Bradley is described as a “cad” – which, seriously, Star called him that. They claim that since his divorce to Jennifer Esposito, he hasn’t really been interested in settling down, et cetera. Of course, while there could be something to these tabloid reports, there are many, many more reports that Bradley and Renee are doing well, and that “It’s very serious. As soon as his mom gives the sign off, he’s going to propose.” I don’t really think either story is true – I don’t think Bradley is near proposing, and I don’t think he’s a cad. While there a chance he’s gay (I’d put at 3 to 1 odds), I think there’s an even bigger chance that he’s a little commitment gun-shy, while still preferring to date “nice girls” who just want to settle down.
Here’s an older picture of Isabella Brewster (on the right) with her big sister Jordana. This is from 2003, and I can barely tell these girls apart. Methinks Bradley’s “type” is very pretty brunettes (Isabella, Jennifer Esposito), which probably doesn’t bode well for Renee:

I don’t find this guy attractive at all.
If the ex were an ex-boyfriend then I would believe it.
He looks like a shady used car salesman. There is something off about him but I can’t put my finger on it. Does he have friends? I have never seen him out on the town with his bros or anything. I get the feeling he is not likeable off screen. There’s doesn’t appear to be anything behind his eyes or smile. Everytime I see him I just think he’s tring to fool us somehow. It’s hard to explain.
There’s NO WAY he’s dating just one girl. He’s just become a big star. It goes against men and nature to say he’s serious about Renee or about to propose. That’s if he’s straight. if he’s gay this is all media manipulation ti make him appear super straight. The more the cad, the less people think he’s gay. Right, Clooney?
I don’t know about him being gay or a cad…six of one…however, if he tells Isabella to “Bring her hot self over and DON’T FORGET DINNER!?!? What the hell? He makes the big bucks…why doesn’t he just pick it up and pay for it in advance himself?! Ugh! THAT makes me mad more than anything else! As for Renee…there have been rumors that she’s a lesbian herself anyway, so who knows.
I’m still trying to bend my brain around him and Jennifer Esposito…
Gimmie a minute…
I think he’s smokin hot (not as hot as Gerry mind you), I just watched Midnight Meat Train, and he was looking good in that too. I don’t blame him for wanting to be single, he’s a hot commodity. But if he cheated than he’s an ass.
The Brewster sisters sure are cute and pretty.
Just from reading the headline my mind immediately went to Victor G as the ex! Meh…I call shenanigans on this story; he and Victor make a sexier (and more believable) couple than him and Isabella!
Ugh, who is writing this schlock anyway…“Bradley had a scorching relationship with her,” says a source. “It was hard for him to let go of the passion between them.”??!!! Contrived much?
I don’t either, Jillian. I think he looks like a parakeet. and a douche.
@BitterBetty…so a douchey parakeet??! That seriously gave me a much needed laugh! Ta.
Yeah, he’s no James Franco, that’s for sure. Not even semi-attractive…Weaselly, even.
@BitterBetty- LOL at that. Parakeet!
he’s cute but he looks smarmy.
haha squinty paradise!! hilarious.
Strange – on film he looks quite attractive (it’s mainly the baby blues though)
In photographs – a rougher version of Dan Futterman.
He’s the male version of Jennifer Aniston, looks best in motion as they can’t pose for toffee.
“He’s just become a big star. It goes against men and nature to say he’s serious about Renee or about to propose.”
Where did that come from? How is his acting success translate into, “he’s a dog, it’s the way men are?”
He looks like a greasy frat boy. I don’t get the appeal, although he does have pretty peepers. For a parakeet.
Well, there’s been gay rumors about almost every male celebrity, but I think there might be something to those regarding him.
Who gets divorced after 4 months? There’s alot more to that story with his ex-wife.
I totally dig Jennifer Esposito. He’s kinda rat faced. Mairead, good call on the Aniston comparison.
Snowball, settle down.
I said he just became a big star. And there is NO WAY that a guy who just became a big star five minutes ago is going to want to settle down and get married. THAT goes against men and nature. How does what I said translate into all men are dogs? I never said that. I made of pointing out he just became a big star.
I dunno man, this guy seems weasely… maybe it’s just cuz he looks like a weasel :/
I still can’t believe BC is going to be “face” on the A-Team (the best show EVER to grace television) remake…sigh…
what a shallow commentary, what has attractiveness got to do with love?
The first two comments sum up exactly what I was going to say. Thanks Jillian and e.
