Whether it’s football, business, or his private life, everything about Tom Brady draws media attention. All the more when it comes to romance. After his high-profile divorce from Gisele Bündchen, the 47-year-old has remained one of the most eligible bachelors around.

Brady has been linked to several stunning and successful women — from Irina Shayk to, more recently, Sydney Sweeney. But now, it’s Sofia Vergara who is making headlines with TB12.
According to reports, Brady’s growing closeness with the Modern Family actress has left Kim Kardashian feeling a little uneasy. Why? Well, Kardashian has reportedly had her eye on Brady for quite some time, and she hasn’t exactly been subtle about it.
Since 2023, she has shared flirtatious run-ins with the three-time MVP and hoped those moments would evolve into something deeper. She believed Brady was the perfect match. After all, he checks all the boxes.
So when both attended Jeff Bezos’ star-studded wedding in Italy, Kim saw it as her big opportunity. However, Brady’s interest in Vergara rather than her has reportedly struck a nerve.
Although dating rumors swirled around Kim and Brady last year, nothing ever materialized despite her strong interest. Now, even though TB12 is seemingly connected with Sofia, some in the media still believe a Kim-Tom pairing could work.
Entertainment host and producer Maddison Hill, for one, recently stated that Brady and Kardashian would make a great match, calling him an ideal fit for her. She then listed her reasons.
According to Hill, Brady has the kind of traits Kim finds attractive. His looks appeal to her superficial sensibilities, and his drive to succeed in everything he does, from football to business, makes him even more appealing.
“I do think Tom Brady is somebody who Kim Kardashian would like, just because he is good-looking, he is successful, he is motivated, he is in the right circles, [and] he is well-connected,” said Hill.
Brady also moves in high-powered circles and has strong connections, both in and outside of sports. That said, while Brady is a titan in the NFL and American sports culture, he isn’t necessarily a megastar in the broader celebrity world.
Kim, on the other hand, thrives in that space. Dating Tom would not only give her a new romantic interest but would also expose her to a whole new circle of influence. That’s something a seasoned socialite like Kim would definitely value.
“He [Brady] is a celebrity, but not too big of [a] celebrity. He likes the spotlight; she likes the spotlight. I do feel like I could see this being a thing. Also, he kind of puts her in a different circle than she has been,” added Hill.
Neither Brady, Kardashian, nor Vergara has addressed the swirling rumors about their personal lives. Meanwhile, reports have linked Vergara to businessman Douglas Chabbott. That’s a connection that doesn’t come as a surprise since Vergara has openly expressed her desire for a partner who is wealthier and more financially secure than she is.
As for Brady, he remains a ‘free agent’ in the dating world. While he’s still single and technically free to pursue anyone he wants, a romance with Kardashian seems unlikely at this point. If something were going to happen between them, it likely would have by now. That said, stranger things have happened in celebrity circles when it comes to romance.
