Suki Waterhouse opens up about Bradley Cooper breakup

Suki admitted believing she might never fully recover from their three-year relationship that ended in 2015.

Suki Waterhouse struggled to see any positives following her split from Bradley Cooper. The star of "Daisy Jones and the Six" admitted she initially believed she might never fully recover from their three-year relationship that ended in 2015.

"I really will say that I'm pretty strong at this point," Suki told British Vogue for its August issue, "but when something very public happens to you and the story behind it is dark and difficult, and you're actually not doing well, and you can't explain yourself to the world, that's very isolating and disorientating."

She continued, "It probably has taken a decade to work myself out and actually be able to have this expansion in my life."

As a result, her music became a way for Suki to express her heartbreak. She channeled her emotions into the song "Brutally," which she recorded in 2016 and featured on her EP "Milk Teeth" released in 2022.

"Your 20s are pretty sadistic," the 34-year-old said. "The love I experienced [then] was only ever a fetishisation, and I think when you only get loved in that way, you only get punished."

However, things have improved for the "Good Looking" singer, who celebrated the birth of her daughter in March with her fiancé Robert Pattinson.

"When you get into your 30s," she added, "you're almost instantly afforded a little bit more respect. It's kind of delightful and shocking at the same time."

Not to say falling in love has impacted how she writes about heartbreak. "I can get mad for my friends," she admitted. "Rob can still get a s---ty song. You can find things to be pissed about."
