Tom Brady and Candice Swanepoel are reportedly dating.
The retired NFL quarterback, 47, and the Victoria’s Secret supermodel, 36, have been together “for a while,” a source said on Saturday. Representatives for both Brady and Swanepoel did not immediately return requests for comment.
Swanepoel is best known for her long career with Victoria’s Secret, and she most recently walked for the lingerie brand during its fashion show last weekend. During that appearance, she wore three distinct outfits, including an all-pink look and another featuring structured metallic details with bejeweled wings.
The South African model shares sons Anacã, 10, and Ariel, 8, with ex-fiancé Hermann Nicoli. She and Nicoli were together for more than a decade before splitting in 2018.
Brady shares son Benjamin, 16, and daughter Vivian, 13, with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen, to whom he was married from 2009 to 2022. He is also father to son Jack, 19, with ex Bridget Moynahan.
Since his divorce from Bündchen, Brady has been romantically linked to several high-profile names, including Kim Kardashian, Irina Shayk, Brooks Nader, SofÃa Vergara, Alix Earle and Yael Cohen. He has largely kept his dating life private in that time.
Earlier this year, Brady indicated that romance was not his focus. In a January interview, he said, “You know what? I don’t have much time for a personal life or much time for myself, but I love working and I love my kids.”
He continued, “I like to be busy and try to really stay fulfilled in the things I’m doing, so I’m working on some really cool projects and I’m involved with some great teams of people that are doing some really positive things,” adding that he’s “so blessed in so many parts of [his] life.”
Swanepoel, for her part, has emphasized her commitment to motherhood. She told V magazine in 2023 that she was “very in tune with [her] children’s needs, then [her] own personal needs, which are also important.”
Brady’s marriage to Bündchen ended after 13 years, and the split has continued to generate headlines. A recently released book, “Brady: An American Story and the Price of Greatness” by Lars Anderson, alleged that Bündchen ended the marriage with three words — “we’re not compatible” — after making what the book described as a “desperate” attempt to save their union.
Brady and Bündchen finalized their divorce in 2022. Since then, both have moved forward publicly with their respective lives and careers.
The reported new coupling comes as Brady remains active in business ventures and broadcasting following his retirement from professional football.
