‘Wow, that was fast’: Netizens have a lot to say as rumours arise about Tom Brady and Erika Kirk dating

Currently, rumours are circulating on the internet suggesting that Erika Kirk, the CEO of Turning Point USA and the late Charlie Kirk’s wife, and NFL quarterback, Tom Brady, who was previously married to supermodel Gisele Bündchen, are dating. So, how true are these claims? Apparently not at all, at least as of now, but given how happy and celebratory Erika has been during all the recent Turning Point events, people are not ruling out the possibility.

A recent post about Erika Kirk and Tom Brady dating has created quite a stir among netizens. The post, first made by the X (formerly Twitter) page Hoops Crave (a parody account) on January 14, 2026, has, as of this writing, garnered millions of views and thousands of likes, comments, and reshares. Among the things that people have written under the post many say that they are shocked with the revelation, others believe that Erika moving on too fast from her deceased husband is not surprising given how enthusiastically she has been celebrating his legacy and life- from fireworks to setting up a replica of a tent where Kirk was shot back in September 2025, in a recent Turning Point event, the world has seen everything.

A huge section of people also took digs at Vice President JD Vance, with whom Erika Kirk had ignited rumours of an affair after that very awkward hug at a Turning Point event last year. Actually, it wasn’t just the embrace that led to the controversy but also what Kirk said while introducing Vance. She stated that Vance was the best person to replace her husband. Not the wisest use of words, I would say. We all saw that debacle play out in front of everyone’s eyes, and the memory of it is still fresh in our minds, at least in mine, because it was slightly jarring. Therefore, I understand why people are bringing up Vance in this context.

That said, the previously mentioned X page is not the only source of this speculative piece of information. Other pages have also posted about the rumour of Erika Kirk and Tom Brady dating. A page that goes by the name News and Tips on Facebook discussed the matter and wrote:

“JUST IN. Reports suggest Tom Brady and Erika Kirk may be seeing each other. No official confirmation yet, but online speculation is growing fast as fans react and discussions heat up across social media platforms.”
