Tom Brady and rumored flame Irina Shayk appear to be going strong, with the model taking drastic steps to ensure the longevity of their relationship. According to Page Six, Shayk has begun distancing herself from “loose lipped” friends in order to protect against any potential gossip that could have an impact on the relationship.
An insider has revealed that Shayk “really wants this to work” and has labeled Brady her “white whale,” as she is hoping for a real shot at a long-term connection with the all-American nice guy.
The pair first became linked back in May when attending the wedding of billionaire art heir Joe Nahmad and Madison Headrick in Italy. Since then, rumors have been swirling and Shayk appears determined to make sure these remain just rumors.
It has been reported that a number of models were vying for Cruise’s affections, but Shayk was one such individual who “hit it off” according to Entertainment Tonight.
TMZ sources indicate that over the course of two days in Los Angeles, the pair cozied up together and even spent the night at Cruise’s place. Photos have since emerged of Cruise showered in love with Shayk, displaying for all to see, his most tender side.
The Daily Mail reported that this has had quite the effect on Irina’s ex, Bradley Cooper. An inside source reportedly told Daily Mail that Cooper “so much love for her [Irina],” and upon seeing the pictures of Cruise with Shayk he felt endangered, as if “she met someone in Tom that would take her heart away from him forever”.
