5 things to know about Brooks Nader, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model dating Tom Brady

Tom Brady has a new love interest.

Page Six confirmed in July 2024 that the retired NFL pro is “casually dating” model Brooks Nader, nearly two years after finalizing his divorce from Gisele Bündchen.

Prior to the news, Brady and Nader had been spotted together in public a handful of times.

The pair both attended Michael Rubin’s star-studded Fourth of July white party, where Brady was seen “talking to different women,” an eyewitness told Page Six.

It’s unknown when the athlete began dating the Louisiana native since he was rumored to be seeing another model, Isabella Settanni, in June.

But whether this latest romance is a fun fling or a deep connection, here are five facts about Brooks Nader.

She’s a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover girl

Nader made her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit debut in 2019, and she has impressively appeared in every issue since.

In 2023, she graced the cover and revealed she landed her first SI Swimsuit gig after waiting hours at an open casting call.

“It was more empowering to do it through that channel because it was more rewarding whenever I got that ‘yes,’” she reflected at the time.

“It was also rewarding because in the modeling industry at that time I was getting a ton of ‘nos’ and [editor-in-chief] MJ Day gives me a stamp of approval and everyone’s like, ‘Oh my God, now we want to work with you.’”

In May 2024, she told Page Six that she sent her SI Swimsuit cover to the modeling agencies who rejected her.

She’s divorced

Nader tied the knot with advertiser Billy Haire in New Orleans in December 2019 in front of 330 guests.

“I’m mostly excited to call him hubby!” she told People ahead of their nuptials. “We are also excited to just continue our adventures together. We’ve done a lot of fun traveling and look forward to doing even more.”

However, Page Six confirmed in May 2024 that the two were divorcing after living apart for months.

A source told us their split was amicable.

She ditched college to pursue modeling

Nader grew up in Baton Rouge, La., where she graduated from Episcopal High School in 2015 before enrolling in Tulane University.

However, she left Tulane to pursue modeling after she was scouted in New York City during a summer internship.

“It was definitely scary, and took a lot of work, but I’m proud of where I am now,” she told the Advocate in 2019.

She’s dated a prince

Before being linked to Brady, Nader was connected to Prince Constantine Alexios of Greece and Denmark.

The duo attended Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey’s wedding together in June 2024, nearly two months after her divorce news.

At one point, they were seen walking hand in hand at the lavish Rhode Island event. The prince also affectionately placed his hand on her waist as they watched the newlyweds dance.

While not much is known about the nature of their relationship, they had sparked romance rumors about a week before when they were spotted on a stroll in NYC.

She has three model sisters

Nader has three younger sisters, Mary Holland, Grace Ann and Sarah Jane, who are also models.

“I’m trying to be a role model to them,” she told People in November 2023.

And when asked if they could also land the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, Nader said, “Anything’s possible. Just hard work, [have] dedication and pursue your dreams.”
