Bradley Cooper's ex-wife, Jennifer Esposito, has recently shared her reaction to his steamy Oscars performance with Lady Gaga. Esposito made her thoughts known through a cryptic Instagram post following the memorable duet between Cooper and Gaga at the 91st Academy Awards.

The post, which has since been deleted, stated: "Ha!" alongside a screenshot of a comment made by David Spade on his own Instagram account. Spade had joked about the chemistry between the two performers during their rendition of "Shallow" from the hit film "A Star is Born." Although Esposito's response may seem ambiguous, many interpreted it as a sarcastic reaction to the steamy performance.

Fans of Cooper and Gaga's on-screen chemistry have long speculated about their off-screen relationship, despite both stars continually denying that anything romantic is happening between them. However, their undeniable connection during the Oscars performance led to renewed rumors and speculations about their relationship status.

Cooper and Esposito were married for a brief duration from December 2006 to May 2007. Although their marriage was short-lived, it appears that the former couple still have some lingering feelings and emotions towards one another.

Following the performance, Gaga also addressed the rumors surrounding her and Cooper's relationship during an appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!".

She emphasized that their chemistry was purely a result of their dedication to portraying their characters authentically and convincingly. Gaga further explained that the intention behind the performance was to create a love story within the song, just as it is in the movie.

The steamy Oscars performance not only captivated the audience but also led to a surge in public interest regarding Cooper and Gaga's relationship. It remains to be seen how they will navigate the continued scrutiny and speculation, as they have both expressed admiration and respect for each other in various interviews.

Esposito's response to the performance through her cryptic Instagram post has added fire to the ongoing rumors and discussions surrounding Cooper and Gaga's connection.

However, it is important to remember that their on-screen chemistry may simply be a testament to their acting abilities rather than an indication of any real-life romance.

As the public's fascination with Cooper and Gaga's relationship continues, it is evident that their captivating performance at the Oscars has only fueled the speculation further.
