Are Kim Kardashian and Tom Brady dating? Billionaire party host speaks on potential power couple

The billionaire businessman who hosted the white party in Hamptons where Kim Kardashian and Tom Brady crossed paths – sparking romance speculation – has spoken out on the rumors surrounding the two superstars.

Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin spoke with the potential power couple on Friday Entertainment tonight while attending the Shawn Carter Foundation in New York City.

“Honestly, they’re just friends,” Rubin, 50, said of the two, who were spotted talking at the July 4 luxury bash. “It’s just the crazy rumors going around.”

Rubin said he spent a lot of time with the retired NFL star at the Independence Day gathering.

“Tom was with me for a good part of the night and we had fun, and Tom just doesn’t go out that much,” said Rubin, who described the three-time NFL MVP’s presence at the party as “a rare sighting.”

Kardashian said on social media that she took 11 photos during the summer party, with Rubin noting that “Kim doesn’t drink much.”

He added, “So I think Kim’s 10 or 12 shots she had, [and] Tom, you know, being nice just leads to rumors. We always want to laugh about it.’

Reports of a possible pairing came after the reality star and retired quarterback were spotted talking at the event, which attracted a number of A-list celebrities.

The outlet DeuxMoi got a picture of Kardashian and Brady chatting to each other.

In the shot, Tom, 45, stood with his back to the camera, and Kim, 42, was mostly obscured by him, but the outfits in the photo match the clothes they both wore to the white party.

The images serve as confirmation that the two mingled at the bash, even though people claimed they weren’t actually hooking up.

“Kim and Tom spent time hanging out and talking at Michael Rubin’s white party and having a good time together,” a source told the outlet after the bash.

Stars galore flocked to Michael Rubin’s $50 million spread in the Hamptons for the Glorious Fourth, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Kendall Jenner and Kylian Mbappe.

Showbiz power couples were particularly strong, from Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck to Beyoncé and Jay-Z to Justin and Hailey Bieber.

Kardashian, who has gone through three divorces, and Brady, whose own marriage to Gisele Bündchen recently fell apart, were also among the well-known names on the guest list.

Although they were both hobbling around with other attendees, they were initially thought to have little contact with each other.

“I don’t know why there are all these rumors about Brady and Kim Kardashian – they barely interacted,” said a well-placed source who attended the festivities.

“He actually spent the evening with Emily Ratajkowski – they were together most of the night and looked really cozy,” the insider revealed.

That’s what the source said “They didn’t leave together, but if anyone came close, it was them.”

An insider inquired People that Kardashian and Brady “barely spoke at the party and barely said hello,” while another source noted that the two “said a short hello when she arrived at the party.”

According to a third insider, Tom and Kim are now “friends and have a lot of respect for each other.” Kim is very focused on her children and her businesses, and is currently not in a relationship.”

Kim filed for divorce from her third and final husband Kanye in February 2021 after months of rumors that their relationship was on the verge of collapse.

Late last year, Kanye saw his career implode after a string of anti-Semitic outbursts, including a vow to go “death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE.”

On a recently aired episode of her family’s Hulu show, The Kardashians, Kim was seen in tears during the explosive scandal.

After the breakdown of her marriage, Kim spent nine months recovering with Saturday Night Live lothario Pete Davidson.

Pete has been infamous for his “big d*** energy” since 2018, when his then-fiancée Ariana Grande slyly tweeted about his “10 inches.”

Kim has confessed that she was initially seduced by the chatter about his “NDE,” but the relationship eventually spiraled out of control last summer.

Tom and Gisele, meanwhile, announced their separation last October amid a blizzard of reports that the marriage was on the rocks.

It was alleged that Gisele was livid over Tom’s shocked decision to “not retire” from the NFL – just a month after leaving football to spend more time with his family.

“Of course I have my concerns – this is a very violent sport, and I have my kids and I’d like him to be more present. I’ve definitely had those conversations with him over and over,” she shared Elle shortly before their split became public.

‘But in the end I think everyone should make a decision that works [them]. He must also follow his joy,” Gisele added.

Tom initially announced his departure from the NFL during the 2022 off-season, but soon made a dizzying U-turn and returned to pro football.

During his brief tenure in the NFL, his marriage fell apart, and in February Tom announced that he was once again retiring.
