Tom Brady is at the center of fresh romance speculation involving Victoria’s Secret veteran Candice Swanepoel, four years after his divorce from Gisele Bündchen.
The retired NFL quarterback, 49, has reportedly been dating the 38-year-old supermodel “for a while,” according to a source cited by Us Weekly in a report published Saturday.
Brady and Swanepoel have not commented publicly on claims that they are romantically involved.
Daily Mail has contacted representatives for both stars seeking comment, but has not received a response.
Swanepoel and Brady’s former wife, Bündchen, were both Victoria’s Secret Angels during the brand’s prominent early-2000s era.
The two models did not appear together in Victoria’s Secret’s famous runway shows, however. Bündchen ended her contract in 2006, while Swanepoel joined the brand the following year.
Tom Brady, 46, is facing speculation that he is dating Victoria’s Secret veteran Candice Swanepoel, four years after splitting from ex-wife Gisele Bündchen; he was seen with Bündchen in New York City in 2019.
A source claimed the retired NFL star has been dating 38-year-old Swanepoel “for a while” in comments to Us Weekly published Saturday; Swanepoel was seen in Los Angeles earlier this month.
Brady was previously married to Bündchen from 2009 until the couple finalized their divorce in 2022.
They share two children, Benjamin, 16, and Vivian, 13. Brady also has a 19-year-old son, Jack, with his former partner Bridget Moynahan.
Swanepoel previously spent years in a relationship with Brazilian model Hermann Nicoli, whom she met in 2005.
Swanepoel was 17 and Nicoli was 23 when they met while both were building careers in the modeling world.
The pair dated for nearly a decade before becoming engaged in 2015. Their split was confirmed three years later.
During their nearly 14-year relationship, Swanepoel and Nicoli welcomed two children: Anacan, 10, and Ariel, seven.
Since his divorce from Bündchen, Brady has been linked in romance speculation to other well-known figures, including Irina Shayk and Alix Earle.

After divorcing Bündchen, Brady has been the subject of romance rumors involving stars including Irina Shayk and Alix Earle.
Last month in September, the media personality finally addressed her rumored romance with Brady.
During an episode of her Netflix reality series Earle Meets World, she opened up about the alleged dalliance.
She could be seen having a conversation with Jenna Johnson, the wife of her former Dancing with the Stars partner Val Chmerkovskiy, during rehearsals for the tour earlier this year.
Earle simply said that she is ‘having fun’ following her breakup from pro NFL wide receiver Braxton Berrios.
‘Then you were like, “Tom, come over, cutie,”‘ Johnson had joked.
Earlier this year in January, Brady offered brief insight into his personal life during an interview with People at the time.
‘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 further added, ‘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.’
