Irina Shayk wants her daughter to find the silver lining amid fame.
The Sports Illustrated swimsuit model explained how she and ex Bradley Cooper help their daughter Lea “feel comfortable” around their celebrity status, noting that the 8-year-old “clearly understands” their public-facing jobs.
“She has very, very little digital access, almost down to none,” Irina told People in an interview published Nov. 17. Instead, the 39-year-old said she and Bradley focus on “building community, friends and just giving love.”
She added, “This is the best thing that you could give to your kid, raising them in a loving family.”
Plus, Irina is aware that her job gives her a unique perspective that can help temper some of Lea’s worldviews.
“There are so many beauty standards out there,” she continued, “that of course I try to protect my daughter from.”
And part of Irina and Bradley’s approach to acclimating their daughter to Hollywood is by including her in their work. In fact, when it comes to the process of making a movie, the Maestro actor-director shared that Lea is “part of it.”
