Tom Brady is 'desperate' to take things to next level with Irina Shayk, claims source
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Former New England Patriot, Tom Brady, finds himself entangled in a romantic pursuit to solidify his relationship with supermodel Irina Shayk.
The 46-year-old quarterback's efforts are reportedly met with challenges, with the looming presence of Irina's ex-boyfriend, Bradley Cooper, casting a shadow over their budding romance.
Tom Brady's ongoing bid to secure relationship with Irina Shayk faces Bradley Cooper's shadow
Undeterred by his high-profile status and successful career, Tom Brady has been actively engaged in an elaborate courtship of Irina Shayk, 38, following his divorce from fellow model Gisele Bündchen in October 2022.
Reports indicate that Brady has spared no expense, wining and dining Shayk at luxurious restaurants and showering her with extravagant gifts and lavish bouquets. Despite these efforts, his attempts to escalate the relationship are allegedly falling short.
According to a recent report, "Tom has been wining and dining Irina at the fanciest restaurants and sending her extravagant gifts and huge bouquets of flowers in a bid to take things to the next level."
"But she keeps disrupting his game plan, telling him she's happy with the arrangement they have."
Shayk has been on and off for several months because of Bradley Cooper's "offensive interference," according to a source. Cooper is the father of Shayk's 6-year-old daughter Lea De Seine.
"Whenever Irina seems to be getting serious with Tom, Bradley will swoop back onto the scene and confuse the whole situation," an insider said.
During a romantic Italian vacation, Irina and Cooper were just beginning to get hot and heavy after meeting at a wedding last summer.
"This is a pattern that's been going on since the start," explained the insider. "Whenever Bradley dangles the carrot of a reconciliation, Irina ditches Tom and goes running back to him. And that only makes Tom more desperate to lock her down."
"It's very hard on Tom," the tipster noted. "His ego is taking a beating."
Tom Brady recently posted on 'cheating'
NFL star Tom Brady has taken to Instagram with a cryptic post on 'cheating', igniting speculation about its meaning. The post comes nearly a year after Brady's divorce from supermodel Gisele Bundchen was finalized in October 2022 and amid apparent rekindling of his romance with Irina Shayk. The post features a quote from legendary boxer Muhammad Ali, delving into the significance of a person's heart and its connection to their character.
“The personality of a person. The ways of a person. His thoughts. His deeds. His actions. Are all based around his heart,” the quote reads. Ali's words draw a connection between the heart and the character of an individual, stating that a "lying cheating heart means a lying cheating man," while a "loving merciful heart means a loving merciful man."
“Regardless to a man’s title. Regardless to a man’s rank, wealth or position, if the heart is not great then he cannot be great,” it said. “But if the heart is great that man remains great under all circumstances, rich or poor, large or small, for it is the heart that makes one large or small.”
Brady's cryptic post adds an intriguing layer, emerging almost a year after his divorce from Gisele Bundchen, marking the end of their 13-year marriage. Reports surrounding their split suggested a possible disagreement over Brady's retirement from football.
