Tom Brady is reportedly in a relationship with supermodel Candice Swanepoel.
The NFL legend and Victoria’s Secret model have allegedly been dating “for a while,” a source revealed to Us Weekly on Saturday.
However, the insider offered no additional details about their rumored romance.
Representatives for Brady and Swanepoel did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment on Saturday.
An insider told Us Weekly that the South African supermodel, pictured here in October 2025, and the former NFL quarterback have reportedly been seeing each other “for a while.”
Brady has largely kept his romantic life out of the spotlight following his divorce from fellow supermodel Gisele Bündchen, whom he was married to from 2009 until 2022.
Despite maintaining a low profile, the retired football star has sparked dating rumors with several high-profile women since their split, including Kim Kardashian, Irina Shayk, Brooks Nader, Sofía Vergara, Alix Earle and Yael Cohen.
The seven-time Super Bowl winner shares two children with Bündchen — son Benjamin, 16, and daughter Vivian, 13. He is also dad to 19-year-old son Jack, whom he shares with former partner Bridget Moynahan.
Swanepoel, meanwhile, is a mother of two boys, Anacã, 10, and Ariel, 8, whom she shares with her former fiancé, Hermann Nicoli. The former couple ended their relationship in 2018 after more than a decade together.

Earlier this year, Brady suggested that finding romance wasn’t at the top of his agenda.
Speaking to People in January, the former NFL star admitted, “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 went on to explain that staying productive and focusing on meaningful opportunities brings him fulfillment.
“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,” Brady said, adding that he feels “so blessed in so many parts of [his] life.”
Swanepoel, meanwhile, opened up to V magazine in 2023 about balancing motherhood with her own well-being.
The model explained that she was “very in tune with [her] children’s needs, then [her] own personal needs, which are also important.”

The South African beauty rose to international fame through her longtime association with Victoria’s Secret and recently returned to the runway for the lingerie giant’s 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, held last weekend.
Swanepoel turned heads in three different runway ensembles, including a striking head-to-toe pink outfit and another featuring sculpted metallic accents and dazzling, jewel-encrusted wings.
Meanwhile, Brady’s previous marriage to Gisele Bündchen has returned to the spotlight following the release of Lars Anderson’s book, “Brady: An American Story and the Price of Greatness.”
The book sparked headlines with claims that Bündchen ended their 13-year marriage by telling the NFL icon three heartbreaking words: “we’re not compatible.”
According to the book, the split came despite Brady reportedly making a “desperate” effort to keep their marriage together.
