America’s most eligible bachelor Tom Brady is in the throes of a steamy new romance with supermodel Irina Shayk following the end of his 13-year marriage to Gisele Bündchen.
The legendary NFL quarterback, 45, was caught gently caressing the 37-year-old Russian bombshell’s face following an overnight rendezvous at his Los Angeles home on Saturday. As he stroked her cheek, she looked at him longingly from the passenger’s side of his Rolls Royce.
An eyewitness reported that Brady picked her up at an LA hotel on Friday afternoon and took her directly to his house. They emerged from his property the following morning around 9.30am and he later dropped Shayk – who was wearing the same clothes from the night before – back at her hotel in his luxury car.
On Saturday afternoon, Brady is understood to have collected her again from her hotel and returned to his house once more.
Meanwhile, a source close to the model confirmed that the pair are ‘dating’ – although it is understood to be ‘early days’ between the pair.
Since his split from Bündchen, with whom he has two children Vivian, 10, and Benjamin, 13, the NFL star has been linked to a string of A-list women including Kim Kardashian and Emily Ratajkowski.
Rumors about Brady and Shayk – who has a six-year-old daughter Lea with her ex Bradley Cooper – began swirling last month after they both attended billionaire art heir Joe Nahmad’s wedding to Madison Headrick in Sardinia, Italy.
But a source close to Shayk insisted: ‘They’re just friends. They have a purely platonic relationship.’
Shayk’s representative also shut down a report that she ‘threw herself’ at Brady while at the wedding.
A report had claimed that the star ‘scarcely let [Brady] out of her sight’. The onlooker insisted that Shayk ‘followed him around all weekend’ and that she was ‘throwing herself at him.’
The insider also alleged that seven-time Super Bowl Champion told a friend he ‘wasn’t interested.’
But a spokesperson for Shayk was quick to hit back at the claims. ‘This story is completely false. It is a totally malicious and fictional account of the evening,’ Vice President of The Society Management Cheri Bowen insisted in June.
But the pair certainly looked at ease during their time together in LA over the weekend. Shayk was casually dressed in a white tennis outfit and sneakers while Brady kept it casual in an olive T-shirt.
The new romance comes just eight months after Brady’s divorce from Bundchen, 42, became official.
Irina was previously in a relationship with football star Cristiano Ronaldo from 2010-2015 and she briefly dated troubled rapper Kanye West following his split from Kim Kardashian in 2021.
