Insiders suggest it is simpler for Tom Brady and Irina Shayk “to be friends” and that he ended their brief romance because he “wasn’t able to give his full attention.”

Irina, a 37-year-old Russian model and 46-year-old NFL veteran, announced her retirement last week following a purported “fizz out.”

According to a source, if the athlete had “more time for love,” they would “probably still be dating.” However, since splitting from Gisele Bündchen, he is now completely focused on his career and his three kids.

Tom would be all over love and probably still be dating Irina if he had more time for it. He genuinely believes she is fantastic, the insider exclusively revealed to DailyMail.com.

Insiders claim that Tom Brady, 46, broke up with Irina Shayk, 37, because he “wasn’t able to give his full attention” to their romance.

When Tom was seen out and about in July of this year with Irina, he was beaming.

However, Tom is keeping himself occupied by running his enterprises, supporting the sports teams he owns, preparing for his role as a commentator in the upcoming season, and being a father.

“Despite all of his abilities, Tom Brady is too busy to make a day last 36 hours.”

The speaker went on, “He wants to give everything he does 110%. He knew he couldn’t give Irina his whole attention and time, and since she is such a good person, he didn’t want her to feel less than in his world.”

“It is easier for them to be friends right now, but maybe they will find each other in the future.”

A spokesperson for Tom has been contacted by DailyMail.com for comment.

After 13 years together, Tom and Gisele separated in 2022. The couple has two children, Vivian, 10, and Benjamin, 13. October of that year saw the finalization of their divorce. Alongside his ex-partner Bridget Moynahan, he has a 16-year-old son named John.

The former quarterback and Irina were first connected in July when he was seen kissing her face in his Rolls Royce after spending the night at his Los Angeles residence.

They both attended the wedding of wealthy art heir Joe Nahmad and Madison Headrick in Sardinia, Italy, which sparked speculations.

After spending the night with Irina Shayk, Tom Brady gives her a peck.

Tom, who was married to Gisele for 13 years, separated from her in 2022. He is shown here in 2018.

Tom reportedly prioritizes his career and his role as a father to his three kids.
