Gisele Bündchen remains unfazed by Tom Brady's flirtatious encounter with his new love interest, Irina Shayk, according to an exclusive source. The insider reveals that Bündchen, 43, is delighted that Brady has moved on as she has also embraced a new chapter in her life. The source assures that Bündchen anticipated Brady's return to the dating scene and has no qualms or worries about it.
Following their divorce, Bündchen's relationship with Brady, who is 45 years old, primarily revolves around co-parenting their children. The source also mentions that apart from that, Brady is free to date whomever he chooses. The former couple shares a 13-year-old son named Benjamin and a 10-year-old daughter named Vivian. Additionally, Brady is the father of a 15-year-old son named Jack, whom he shares with his ex-partner Bridget Moynahan.
Brady and Shayk, aged 37, ignited speculation of a romance when they were sighted sharing an affectionate moment outside Brady's residence on Saturday, July 22, following what appeared to be a sleepover. Later, Brady was photographed collecting Shayk from her hotel in Los Angeles before the pair returned to his home.
Prior to the release of these photos displaying public displays of affection, both individuals attended Michael Rubin's 4th of July gathering in the Hamptons earlier this month. However, during that time, there were rumors of Brady getting close to Kim Kardashian. (An exclusive source informed us that the interaction solely involved Kardashian, aged 42, asking Brady and his friends to have shots of Kendall Jenner's 818 Tequila with her.)
After his separation from Bündchen, Brady was rumored to be involved with Reese Witherspoon, who revealed in March that she and her husband Jim Toth were ending their 12-year marriage. However, Witherspoon's representative denied the dating rumors in April, stating that they were completely false.
Brady and Bündchen tied the knot in 2009 and were married for 13 years. In 2022, there were speculations among fans about the state of their relationship when Brady reversed his decision to retire from the NFL. He initially announced in February to retire but changed his mind within two months.
In her Elle cover story in October 2022, Bündchen revealed her concerns about Brady's return to professional sports. She stated that they had discussed these concerns multiple times but ultimately believed that each person should make decisions that work best for them. Bündchen emphasized the importance of Brady following his own happiness.
Following ongoing speculation, the former couple officially announced their separation and finalized their divorce later that same month. Brady shared via his Instagram Story that they came to this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time they had spent together. He also expressed their commitment to continue working together as co-parents.
Shayk, on the other hand, went through a well-known split with Bradley Cooper in 2019. They started dating in 2015 and had their daughter, Lea De Seine, in 2017. (Previously, she was in a relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo from 2009 to 2015 and was briefly rumored to be involved with Kanye West in 2021.)
