Supermodel Candice Swanepoel was just spotted wearing a ring on that finger — and amid her whirlwind romance with Tom Brady.
Swanepoel, 38, was photographed wearing a chunky gold band on her left ring finger on Friday, October 30, according to images published by Page Six.
The supermodel has not publicly revealed whether — if any — the ring has significance. Us has reached out to reps for the Victoria’s Secret model for comment.
Us broke the news late last month that Swanepoel and Brady, 49, had been seeing one another “for a while.” The new couple have yet to publicly address their relationship status.
A once-tight friendship between two Victoria’s Secret veterans has become one of the most talked-about celebrity rifts — and it all revolves around legendary NFL quarterback Tom Brady. Us broke the news in October 2026 that Brady was dating supermodel Candice Swanepoel, days before the modeling legend’s longtime friend Joan Smalls left a shady social […]
Brady has previously had a string of high-profile flings following his 2022 divorce from Gisele Bündchen after 13 years of marriage.
“I don’t have much time for a personal life or much time for myself, but I love working, and I love my kids,” Brady, who shares two kids with Bündchen, told People in January when asked about his love life. “I like to be busy and try to really stay fulfilled in the things I’m doing, so I’m working on some really cool projects and I’m involved with some great teams of people that are doing some really positive things.”
Swanepoel, for her part, was last in a romantic relationship with Hermann Nicoli, with whom she shares two sons, before their 2018 split.
Swanepoel’s quiet connection with Brady has since sparked drama with her longtime friend, fellow supermodel Joan Smalls. (The NFL legend and Smalls, 38, casually dated between 2023 and 2024.)
“To her, it was just the ultimate breaking of girl code,” a source exclusively told Us in October, referring to Smalls. “It wasn’t even necessarily about Tom, but more about the fact that Candice was someone she considered such a close friend. Joan had openly talked to Candice about Tom and had confided in Candice about the relationship.”
Smalls and Swanepoel later crossed paths at that month’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, with a second insider telling Us that the models didn’t interact at all.
“Things were definitely awkward,” the second source added. “While no one really knew what was going on behind the scenes, Joan was pretty upset about the situation, and made a point to keep her distance.”
Swanepoel’s rep subsequently issued a rare statement about her client’s personal life.
“Candice has always been exceptionally private about her personal life, with her focus remaining on raising her children,” the spokesperson told Us. “She and Joan share a longstanding history and a friendship that Candice will always respect.”
