Bradley Cooper has arrived at the Oscars with a date on his arm — his mother, Gloria Campano.
The 47-year-old actor looked dapper as he posed alongside his mum in an adorable red carpet moment.
This is the third time Cooper, who stars in Best Picture-nominated film Nightmare Alley, has brought his mother in tow to the prestigious awards ceremony.

The actor donned a sleek Gucci tuxedo while Campano dazzled in a black gown she accesorised with a sequinned jacket and blue-tinted sunglasses.
Cooper has previously brought his mother and girlfriend at the time, Irina Shayk, to the Oscars when he was nominated for best actor in A Star Is Born in 2019. At the end of the ceremony, Julia Roberts concluded the 2019 Oscars with a shout out to Campano, saying, "Well, apparently, that wraps up the 91st Academy Awards."
After presenting Green Book with the Best Picture award, Roberts said, "I would like to say congratulations to all the nominees, and good night to Bradley Cooper's mother and my children, and thank you for watching."

Cooper also brought Gloria along with him to the Oscars in 2014.
Earlier this year, Cooper spoke about his nude scene in Nightmare Alley saying it required him to be naked for six hours on set.
In the film, the actor has a full-frontal scene in the psychological thriller, which is directed by Guillermo del Toro.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter's Kim Masters, he opened up about doing the "big deal" scene on her KCRW podcast The Business.
"I remember reading in the script and thinking, 'He's a pickled punk in that bathtub and it's to story. You have to do it,'" Cooper told Masters of his character, Stanton Carlisle.
"I can still remember that day just to be naked in front of the crew for six hours," he added, revealing it was Toni Collette's first day on set at the time.

"It was just like, 'Whoa.' It was pretty heavy."
Nightmare Alley is a visually striking film set in the 1940s and is based on William Lindsay Gresham's 1946 novel of the same name. It follows the story of Carlisle, a down on his luck guy who uses a post-World War II carnival as his ticket out. As Carlisle plots a new con, he encounters Cate Blanchett's Dr Lilith Ritter, a mysterious psychiatrist, in whom he might have met his match.
