Tom Brady and the model Candice Swanepoel have been dating for months, according to sources who spoke to People on Sunday, in reports that Us Weekly, Page Six and TMZ have also carried. None of the reports has been confirmed by Brady, 49, or Swanepoel, 38, and each account rests on unnamed sources. People reported on Sunday that the two are together and spending significant time with each other in Miami, where, its sources said, both of them live.
One source told People: “They both live in Miami, so it’s very convenient. They’re spending a lot of time together.” A second insider told People that the two have been “dating for months,” described Swanepoel as “very secretive” about the relationship, and said the pair have gone to great lengths not to be spotted together. People presented the accounts as reports from its sources; it did not report any statement from Brady or from Swanepoel.
Us Weekly was first, reporting on Saturday that Brady and Swanepoel have been together “for a while.” The two timelines the outlets have published are Us Weekly’s — together “for a while” — and People’s — “dating for months.” Neither outlet reported a specific date for when the relationship began, and neither reported either person confirming it.
Page Six published two stories on the reports over the weekend, the second of them carrying new details on Sunday. Page Six reported that it sought comment from representatives for both Brady and Swanepoel and that the representatives did not respond. TMZ also carried the reports on Sunday. By Sunday, four outlets — Us Weekly, People, Page Six and TMZ — had published versions of the story, each attributing it to sources rather than to either of the people involved.
Brady retired from the NFL in 2023 after winning seven Super Bowl championships in a career spent with the New England Patriots and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Swanepoel is a South African model best known for her work with Victoria’s Secret. People’s sources placed both of them in Miami, and its insider accounts described a relationship conducted out of public view: “very secretive,” in the insider’s words, with the pair going to great lengths not to be spotted.
That is where the reports stand. Neither Brady nor Swanepoel has said anything publicly about them, according to the outlets that published the stories, and Page Six reported no response from their representatives to its requests for comment. The accounts agree that the two are together and have been for some time; they differ only in the length of time each puts on it, “for a while” in Us Weekly’s reporting and “months” in People’s. Until one of the two comments, the relationship remains a reported one, sourced to the unnamed people who spoke to the four outlets.
