Hollywood is abuzz about Tom Brady moving on from his marriage to Gisele Bundchen. He is now dating Russian model, TV personality, and Bradley Cooper ex, Irina Shayk
How Tom Met Irina
Tom, 46, and Irina, 37, met at the June wedding of Joe Nadmad and model Madison Headrick in Sardinia. Sources say that several models were flirting with Tom at the wedding and Irina was one of them.
The press stated that she “made a beeline for him” and was seen “throwing herself at him all night”. Her reps later denied that rumor.
“This story is completely false. It is a totally malicious and fictional account of the evening,” Cheri Bowen, Shayk’s rep at Society Management told the press at the time.
Although it’s apparent that the two must have had some contact at the wedding, they reportedly did not hook up at that time. “Tom didn’t even really speak to Irina much that weekend,” a recent source says, setting the record straight.
But they stayed in touch.
Tom and Irina Spend the Night Together
Things escalated when Tom flew Irina out to L.A. for the weekend. He picked her up at the Bel-Air on Friday afternoon and drove her to his home.
The two were seen entering his home smiling. Irina did not leave until the next morning at around 9:30 AM.
The press also caught the couple involved in a tender moment when they were going from the hotel to his pad. Tom was seen tenderly stroking Irina’s cheek when they were stopped at a light. Both had big smiles on their faces.
Is It Serious?
Insiders say the relationship between Tom and Irina is not serious. Although they have “enjoyed their time together” “This is something new and, at the moment, it’s totally casual,” sources say.
Gisele’s Reaction
So how does Gisele, Tom’s ex, feel about his new relationship? Early reports said she was not happy about it, but more recently, sources have been saying she is supportive of him.
“Why wouldn’t she be happy for Tom? She divorced him. It is helpful to her freedom that he moved on,” an insider said.
Gisele and Tom were married for 13 years and share two children. Their reasons for divorcing were chalked up to differences that developed during the marriage.
Meanwhile, Gisele has been romantically linked to jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente.
Was There a Brady and Kim Kardashian Romance
Photos of Brady and Irina surfaced just weeks after rumors swirled of a possible connection between the football player and Kim Kardashian.
Reportedly, the two connected when Kim was looking for a home in Brady’s exclusive Bahamian neighborhood. They were also seen flirting at Michael Rubin’s 4th of July party in the Hamptons.
But Kardashian’s reps shot down rumors of a romance right away. The two are just friends.
