Having a single load balancer instead of two

We are having a GKE cluster with like 10 micro-services (pods) and we set up our load balancer using ingress YML with a different path for each service.

now we need to use cloud storage bucket to save user's images and want to point the same application load balancer that got created by the ingress to this bucket using a certain path. or the best practice is to use a different load balancer for the cloud storage bucket other than the GKE ingress?

We want to have a single load balancer to simplify the network architecture and potentially reduce costs by minimizing the number of load balancers we need to manage.

Also is there any GCP docs talking about this scenario? 

and if its better to use a single load balancer is it better to setup this in the ingress YML ? or just edit the created load balancer in the GCP console?
