Tom Brady Looks More Ripped at 49 Than He Did Winning Super Bowls, and He Just Took a Dip Off His Yacht in France with a Mysterious New Girl

By

He turned 49 this week and stripped down to swim trunks off his superyacht, looking leaner than he did chasing rings. He wasn’t diving in solo, either.

A mystery woman suited up in a mask and snorkel and joined Brady in the water off the coast of the South of France on Wednesday. There’s no word yet on whether she’s a friend or something more.

Brady’s love life has drawn attention since his 2022 divorce from Gisele Bündchen. He’s been linked to Irina Shayk and Alix Earle but hasn’t gone public with a serious relationship.

Gisele has moved on, marrying jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente in December 2025 after welcoming a baby boy with him earlier that year.
