Is Tom Brady the next 'Bachelor'? Jesse Palmer claims NFL star is 'solid' choice for ABC show

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Jesse Palmer believes Tom Brady would be a "solid" pick to lead a future Bachelor season. "He'd be legendary," Jesse told TMZ in an August 30 interview. "That’s another one that would be great because you could use all of his houses. We could literally go international."

Tom, according to the ABC host, would be a "very budget-friendly" pick for the network overall. "There's the Irina Shayk issue," Jesse continued, alluding to Tom's most recent love interest. "But if she’s willing to kind of just chill out for a couple months of filming, I think we’re solid." But Jesse says the seven-time Super Bowl champion is welcome to appear on the show, as long as Irina agrees.

Is Tom Brady dating Irina Shayk?

After announcing his divorce from Gisele Bündchen in October 2022, Tom and Irina ignited relationship rumors last month. "Things are very new, [but] Tom has hung out with Irina a few times," a source told Us Weekly in July. "Right now, Tom’s main priorities are focusing on his [three] kids and just having fun. However, he’s interested in getting to know Irina better."

During an outing in Los Angeles at the time, the couple was seen packing on the PDA. In photographs acquired by Page Six, Tom touched Irina's face. "Tom and Irina have a very natural vibe," according to a second insider. "They’re getting along great, and [their] chemistry is already off the charts. It’s early, but they’re both happy and just going with the flow."

According to the insider, Tom and Irina are "both big on privacy" and aim to "progress without any pressure or too much scrutiny."

While things looked to be heating up between Tom and Irina during the summer, the twosome did not celebrate Tom's birthday on August 3. Fans were left wondering about the couple's whereabouts after she shared a picture of herself on vacation with her ex, Bradley Cooper.

On August 26, Irina shared a shirtless snapshot of the actor on Instagram. While the exes' outing raised questions, a source told Us Weekly exclusively that Tom is unconcerned. "Tom has no idea if Irina is still seeing Bradley, but it’s really none of his business," a source told US Weekly. "Tom and Irina aren’t in a committed relationship, so she’s free to see anybody she likes."

Why did Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen split?

On October 28, 2022, People announced that Tom and Gisele had filed for divorce in Florida, where Tom plays for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Tom announced the divorce in an Instagram Story post at the time. Gisele posted something similar on her Instagram story.

On October 4, 2022, a source confirmed to Page Six that the couple had contacted attorneys to prepare for their divorce. Gisele has hired Tom Sasser, the managing partner of the law firm Sasser, Cestero & Roy, according to Page Six.

The publication also said that Tom and Gisele will share custody of their two children, Benjamin Rein and Vivian Lake. The quarterback also has a kid from his previous marriage with ex-Bridget Moynihan, John "Jack" Edward, for whom Gisele serves as a stepmother. According to another source, they are considering splitting their assets, which include a $26 million property portfolio.

A source also told Us Weekly at the time that Gisele, who was "living apart" from Tom when she engaged her divorce lawyer and had been "at odds" with him for months, was waiting for him to make a "big gesture" after learning her divorce plans were serious. Another insider informed the site that they tried extremely hard to "save" their marriage on the day they announced their divorce.

Where is 'The Bachelor' Season 27's winning couple now?

Zach Shallcross And Kaity Biggar had to keep their relationship private while the show aired, which meant no public appearances. They may now share to their hearts' delight, which for Zach means every Instagram post. "I can't wait to spend [time] with Kaity and just be out in public," Zach said in March to People.

Zach claims that he and Kaity now act as if they've been married for a while. "We're basically like a fully married couple," Zach admitted in May on the Almost Famous podcast.

If last season's episode Hometowns didn't make it plain, Kaity and Zach both live in Austin, Texas. Kaity took to Instagram in July to share cute images of herself and her fiancé at their new house, captioning the post, "Officially roommates!"

Although the bachelor couple is undoubtedly engaged, they are in "no rush" to marry. The pair told PEOPLE in an interview that they are waiting to "see how things go." The couple stated that they intend to marry in 2025 and may invite a few more Bachelor Nation members to the event.

Other than that, they hope to travel (Kaity also wants a beach property) and live a "normal life," according to PEOPLE. They may also have children in the future.

When will 'The Bachelor' Season 28 air?

Season 28 of 'The Bachelor' will premiere in 2024. Given that production is set to commence, we can expect Joey Graziadei's season to follow suit and premiere in January 2024.
