Tom Brady has a new leading lady — and she is one of the most famous supermodels on the planet.
The seven-time Super Bowl champion is reportedly dating Victoria’s Secret bombshell Candice Swanepoel, according to a new report.
The A-list pair have been together “for a while,” a source told Us Weekly on Saturday. The outlet’s insider didn’t share any further details about the new coupling.
Representatives for Brady and Swanepoel did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on Saturday.
A very private love life
Brady, 49, has kept his dating life relatively private since splitting with supermodel Gisele Bündchen, to whom he was married from 2009 to 2022.
However, he has been romantically linked to several big names since his divorce from Bündchen, including Kim Kardashian, Irina Shayk, Brooks Nader, Sofía Vergara, Alix Earle and Yael Cohen.
The NFL legend shares son Benjamin, 16, and daughter Vivian, 13, with the Brazilian beauty, and is also father to son Jack, 19, with ex Bridget Moynahan.
Earlier this year, Brady hinted that dating wasn’t his priority, telling People in January: “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.”
“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,” he continued, adding that he’s “so blessed in so many parts of [his] life.”
The Victoria’s Secret connection
Swanepoel, meanwhile, has also stayed quiet about her dating life since splitting with ex-fiancé Hermann Nicoli in 2018, whom she was with for over a decade. The South African beauty shares sons Anacã, 10, and Ariel, 8, with Nicoli.
She is best known for her work with Victoria’s Secret, and most recently walked for the iconic lingerie brand during its Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026 last weekend.
During the show, Swanepoel donned three distinct outfits, including an all-pink look and one that had structured metallic details — including a pair of bejeweled wings.
Swanepoel 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.”
The Gisele chapter
A recently released book, “Brady: An American Story and the Price of Greatness” by Lars Anderson, made waves by alleging that Bündchen ended her 13-year marriage to Brady with three words — “we’re not compatible” — after making a “desperate” attempt to save their union.
Whether the Brady-Swanepoel romance becomes the NFL icon’s first serious relationship since that split remains to be seen — but the rumor mill is already in overdrive.
