Tom Brady and Candice Swanepoel Are Reportedly Keeping Their Miami Romance Under Wraps

Tom Brady and Candice Swanepoel are reportedly dating — and, according to new details published on Sunday, they are working hard to keep it that way.

What the new reports say

Page Six reported new details on 25 October, citing an insider who spoke to People. The source said Brady, 49, and Swanepoel, 38, have been dating for months and are spending a lot of time together. The romance itself was first reported on Saturday by Us Weekly, whose insider said the pair had been together “for a while.” Neither has publicly confirmed the relationship, and representatives for both were not immediately available for comment.

Keeping it out of sight

According to the People insider quoted by Page Six, Swanepoel has been “very secretive and selective” about who she has told about the dating. The source added that when the pair have met up, they have gone to great lengths not to be spotted. That discretion, the report suggests, is deliberate rather than accidental: both are among the most photographed people in their fields, and a quiet approach is the only way to keep a new relationship private for long.

Why Miami makes it easy

Geography helps. “They both live in Miami, so it’s very convenient,” the insider told People, as quoted by Page Six. Brady has long been based in Florida, while Swanepoel, the South African model best known for her years with Victoria’s Secret, has also spent time in the city. Sharing a home city means they do not need the airports, hotels and public arrivals that usually give a celebrity romance away.

Where both of them stand

Brady has kept his personal life largely private since his divorce from Gisele Bündchen in 2022, with whom he shares son Benjamin, 16, and daughter Vivian, 13. He also shares son Jack, 19, with his former partner Bridget Moynahan. He has said he has little time for a personal life. Swanepoel, meanwhile, shares sons Anacã, 10, and Ariel, 8, with her former fiancé Hermann Nicoli, from whom she split in 2018, and she has likewise said little publicly about her dating life since then.

What is confirmed — and what is not

For now, the story rests on unnamed insiders speaking to People and Us Weekly, as reported by Page Six. No joint appearance, photograph or statement from Brady or Swanepoel has confirmed the relationship. This is a reported romance, not an announced one. But with three major celebrity outlets now carrying the same broad account — a months-long, deliberately private Miami relationship — it is the kind of story that will be watched closely the next time either of them steps out in the city they both call home.
