There is a strange connection between Tom Brady and supermodels. The 45-year-old NFL legend keeps rocking the dating gossip metaverse with the fashion industry’s most elite names. And his camp keeps squashing these reports. First, it was the Veronika Rajek and Kim Kardashian rumors. Now, it’s a Victoria’s Secret beauty. And no, it’s not his ex-wife of 13 years, Gisele Bündchen. This time it’s the former partner of another sporting icon that Brady has turned down. 

The former NE Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback had the time of his life attending his friend’s lavish Sardinian wedding this past week. However, Brady had his signal-calling guard up the entire time as he calmly dodged the advances of soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo’s former partner.

Ever since his divorce in October 2022, Tom Brady has been at the top of the eligible bachelors’ list. TB12 has already garnered the attention of several social media personalities and supermodels. This time it was 37-year-old Irina Shayk who allegedly aimed her crosshair at the 7x Super Bowl champion. 

She was following him around all weekend,” sources close to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model said, as per Page Six. However, much to her disappointment, Shayk didn’t make it to the end zone in her pursuit of TB12. 

The same insiders claimed that they overheard Brady talking to a friend, saying he “wasn’t interested” in CR7 and Bradley Cooper’s ex romantically. The reports described their relationship as strictly platonic.

Tom Brady and Irina Shayk were among the many celebrities who attended billionaire art heir Joe Nahmad and model Madison Headrick’s $12 million Italian wedding ceremony. Also present at the event was Gisele Bündchen’s ex before Brady, Leonardo DiCaprio. So why did Shayk aim for Brady with so much celebrity firepower around?

Brady and Shayk do have a lot in common

Ever since hanging up his cleats in his second official retirement this February, Tom Brady has been spending most of his time with his kids. Brady is a father to three children. Benny and Vivian from his relationship with Brazilian bombshell, Bündchen, and Jack, from his previous connection with Hollywood actress, Bridget Moynahan. Irina Shayk is also a mother. The Russian beauty and ‘Hangover’ star Bradley Cooper are parents to their 6-year-old daughter, Lea. And it’s possible that Shayk has started appreciating the responsible male figures more than the celebrity factor.

Whether this amounts to an official announcement remains to be seen. However, after turning down rumors linking him with Taylor Swift and Reese Witherspoon, it looks like Brady is only focused on his kids and his business ventures at the moment. TB12 became a minority owner in the WNBA franchise, Las Vegas Aces. He is also up for a minority partnership in the Raiders organization as well. Surely, he can’t be distracted by the dating headlines at the moment.
