Irina Shayk isn’t sharing any details about her “personal” life — especially her fling with Tom Brady.
When questioned about her romance with the former New England Patriot, the 37-year-old model chose to remain tight-lipped, opting for a simple "no comment." In her recent interview with Elle magazine, published on November 8, Shayk emphasized her intention to keep her personal life private. She asserted that sharing details about her personal life is a personal choice that she has consciously made, hence the significance of the term "personal." Shayk added that if she ever decides to open up about her personal life, she will do so on her own terms.
Shayk and Brady started their short-lived romance in July when they were caught in an intimate moment outside Brady's Los Angeles residence. Fueling the rumors of a romance, Brady was later seen picking up Shayk from her hotel in L.A.
According to a source, in the same month, Shayk and Brady's relationship was described as "very new," but they had spent time together on multiple occasions.
“Right now, Tom’s main priorities are focusing on his [three] kids and just having fun,” the insider added.

Brady has two children, Benjamin, 13, and daughter Vivian, 10, with his former wife, Gisele Bündchen. According to the source, Bündchen was not bothered by Brady's relationship with Shayk. Brady also has a 15-year-old son, Jack, with his ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.
A different source shared in July that Bündchen is pleased that Brady has moved on with his love life, as she has also moved on. She knew that he would start dating again at some point and is not concerned about it.
Shayk had been in a relationship with Bradley Cooper from 2015 until 2019, during which they had a daughter named Lea De Seine in 2017. While Shayk was associated with Brady, she caused a stir by sharing topless photos of herself and a shirtless picture of Cooper from their vacation together. Another source revealed that Brady was completely unaware of the current status of Shayk and Cooper's relationship.
"It's not his concern," the source revealed. "Tom and Irina aren't in a committed relationship, so she has the freedom to date whomever she chooses."
The relationship between Shaky and Brady ended towards the end of last month.
According to a source, Tom and Irina have ended their relationship and decided to go their own separate ways in October. There is no animosity between them. Two years prior to the Elle cover on Wednesday, Shayk opened up about her personal life, discussing Lea and Cooper in an interview with the magazine.
"I never comprehended the concept of coparenting," she disclosed to Elle in March 2021. "While I am with my daughter, I wholeheartedly embrace my role as a mother, and when she is in the care of her father, he wholeheartedly assumes his role as her dad. Coparenting simply encompasses the essence of parenting."
