Sports Illustrated model Brooks Nader has finally addressed the swirling rumors about her dating NFL icon Tom Brady. Speculation about a potential romance between the two has been building since they reportedly connected at Michael Rubin’s star-studded July 4th party in the Hamptons this past summer.
In an interview with the Daily Mail, Nader touched on her personal life, hinting that she is enjoying her time in the dating scene. “I’m having a blast,” the model shared when asked about her love life, though she didn’t directly confirm or deny the rumors about Brady. Her sister, Sarah Jane, chimed in, adding, “She’s having fun as a single girl. I think it’s as exciting as it possibly could be for her.”
The connection between Brady and Nader first came to light after the two were seen chatting at Rubin’s exclusive summer bash. Since then, reports from entertainment sources have suggested the pair have been spotted together on several occasions. Popular podcast Deux U, hosted by Deuxmoi, claimed that the two have been seen out in public multiple times, according to exclusive sources reported by the New York Post. The sightings have only fueled speculation that there might be more than friendship between them.

Both Brady and Nader are relatively fresh off high-profile breakups. Tom Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl champion, has been single since his October 2022 split from Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bündchen. Brady and Bündchen divorced after 13 years of marriage, during which they had two children together. Since the split, Brady was briefly linked to Russian supermodel Irina Shayk earlier this year, but that relationship reportedly fizzled out.
Meanwhile, Nader also experienced a significant life change in her personal life. In May 2023, she announced her separation from her husband, advertising executive Billy Haire, after more than four years of marriage. The couple had tied the knot in December 2019 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Nader’s divorce came as a surprise to many, but she has since embraced the single life with enthusiasm.
Nader, originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, rose to fame after winning Sports Illustrated’s Swim Search competition in 2019, beating out over 10,000 other applicants. Since then, she has appeared in the magazine’s iconic Swimsuit Edition every year and made her debut as a cover model in 2023, solidifying her place as a major player in the modeling industry.
In addition to rumors about Brady, Nader has also been linked to Prince Constantine Alexios of Greece in the past. However, Nader seems to be taking her return to the dating world in stride, enjoying the journey alongside her sisters. In her interview, she mentioned how being single with her sisters has made the experience even more enjoyable.
“All my sisters are single except for one, so it’s kinda fun to be like Sex and the City… without the sex part, sorry dad,” Nader joked. “It’s fun to be with all your sisters and talk about all these dudes—the good and the bad and all of it.”
While Nader continues to navigate her love life and career, the dating rumors with Tom Brady will likely keep fans and media alike buzzing.
Whether there’s any truth to the speculation remains to be seen, but for now, both Brady and Nader appear to be enjoying their newfound single lives and the excitement that comes with it.
