A source told DailyMail.com: ‘Irina is helping with Tom’s anxiety that has developed over the past few weeks as he has been preparing to play football for so long at this time of year.
“The new relationship is going so great for many reasons, but a major reason is that she takes his mind off the field.
“He misses the NFL, he misses playing, but he’s not going back, and thanks to Irina, he can focus his attention on her, and use the free time he has to build their relationship into something special.”
“Things are going really well and he loves that she came into his life at just the right time. It’s something that just feels natural, good, and comforting.
“He enjoys every minute and just anticipates what the next step might be.”
