Camille Kostek Shares How Rob Gronkowski’s BFF Tom Brady Remains in the Family

Camille Kostek exclusively told E! News that boyfriend Rob Gronkowski and his best friend Tom Brady have maintained their long-lasting friendship after leaving the New England Patriots.

Camille Kostek knows that Rob Gronkowski and Tom Brady‘s relationship is always a touchdown.

The Sports Illustrated model gave an inside look at the former teammate’s long-lasting friendship, which has continued to flourish even after they left the New England Patriots and took on roles as football analysts with Fox.

“Tom’s doing a really great job,” Camille exclusively told E! News on the Oct. 15 red carpet at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. “I was really excited to see him in the seat there. Rob’s kinda giving him some tips, too.”

And the 32-year-old gets a kick out of watching Rob and Tom together, joking, “They’re just like a dynamic duo everywhere they go.”

“I love that they’re still continuing to be teammates,” she added. “It’s fun.” (To see more from Camille and the rest of the stars at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, tune into E! News Oct. 16 at 11 p.m.)



For Camille, supporting Rob has only gotten more fun since he retired in 2022. After all, she no longer has to get dressed up to watch NFL games from the stands.

“It’s been nice to put on a sweat suit and just watch from my couch,” she confessed, “and cheer him on from there.”

Especially because she gets to watch both Rob and Tom—who finalized his divorce from Gisele Bündchen in 2022—in action, adding, “They’re the best.”

But aside from playing cheer captain, Camille—who’s been dating Rob since 2015—shared some other secrets to make a long-lasting relationship work so well, summing it up in one word: “Communicate.”

“Don’t hold it in,” she continued. “Share your feelings. Talk it out, you’ll always feel better. You feel lighter.”
