Is Tom Brady dating supermodel Candice Swanepoel? Here’s what a new report reveals about their romance

Tom Brady and Candice Swanepoel are reportedly dating, a source told Us Weekly. Brady is 49 and retired from the NFL. Swanepoel is 38 and one of the best-known supermodels in the world. The insider said the pair have been together “for a while,” which suggests the romance began well before the report surfaced. Neither has commented publicly, and Us Weekly has asked both for a response. Brady has been linked to several women since his 2022 divorce from Gisele Bündchen, yet he rarely discusses his love life. Swanepoel has kept hers private since her 2018 split.What the report says about Tom Brady and Candice SwanepoelThe claim rests on one unnamed source, so details are thin. Us Weekly published it on Saturday. There is no timeline, no location and no word on how serious things are.What the insider did offer is a sense of duration. “For a while” is vague, but it points to a relationship that has been running quietly, not a fresh spark. That matches how both have handled their private lives. Brady has said little in public about dating, and Swanepoel has stayed out of the spotlight on that front since her split from Hermann Nicoli.Brady has been romantically linked to Irina Shayk and Alix Earle since the divorce. He has stayed mostly quiet about all of it.The timing is worth a look. Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl winner, has built a second career in broadcasting and business since leaving the field, and he has said he is busy by choice. A relationship kept out of sight fits that pattern.Until one of them speaks, this remains an unconfirmed report.Family life and past relationshipsTom Brady was married to Gisele Bündchen from 2009 to 2022, and the two co-parent Benjamin, 16, and Vivian, 13. He also has a 19-year-old son, Jack, with ex Bridget Moynahan. Swanepoel spent a decade with Nicoli, 44, before they split in 2018. They have two sons, Anacã, 10, and Ariel, 8. Between them, the two have five children, ranging from 8 to 19.Brady’s public comments have centered on work and his children. He told People in January, “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 added that he likes staying busy with projects and teams he believes in, and that few things beat watching his oldest son thrive.Swanepoel has been just as open about the juggling act. She told V magazine in 2023, “Life is a constant search for balance, for me at least, and yes I do sometimes feel overwhelmed, but I’m very in tune with my children’s needs, then my own personal needs, which are also important.” Her point was simple: looking after herself makes her a better mother.She also recalled her father waking at 4 a.m. to look after the family farm, and said she hopes her children pick up that same drive.Get the latest Sports News and Live updates.
