Camille Kostek and boyfriend Rob Gronkowski wouldn’t miss Tom Brady’s big night.
Kostek, a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model and former Patriots cheerleader, took to her Instagram Stories on Wednesday to give fans an intimate look at Brady’s Hall of Fame induction ceremony at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., where the seven-time Super Bowl played for 20 years during his prolific NFL career.
“Just going to Tom Brady’s retirement ceremony,” said Gronkowski, a former NFL tight end who played with Brady on the Patriots and Buccaneers.
Kostek and Gronkowski, who have been linked since 2015, then hit the red carpet before the festivities, which featured a performance from Jay-Z.
Brady won six Super Bowls during his time with the Patriots before he departed for the Buccaneers in 2020. He won his final Super Bowl in 2021 alongside Gronkowski, 35.
“In the year 2000, I was drafted as an immature 23-year-old kid,” the future Hall of Fame quarterback said Wednesday. “Twenty years later, I left as a much older 43-year-old kid. But in that time, I was taken in by a family who loved me as a son and embraced by family as their own.”
Brady, now 46, announced his retirement in February 2023 after 23 seasons.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft revealed during Wednesday’s ceremony they’re retiring Brady’s No. 12.
“There’s only one iconic number that will always represent Tom Brady,” Kraft said. “Tonight, I promise it will never be worn again as the No. 12 is now officially retired.”
Brady will soon transition into broadcasting as Fox’s lead NFL analyst beginning with the 2024 season.
He signed a monster 10-year, $375 million contract with the network in 2022.
Gronkowski, meanwhile, has been part of the Fox family since 2019 following his initial NFL retirement in March of that year.
He came out of retirement in 2020 to join Brady in Tampa Bay before calling it a career again in 2022 after 11 years.
Kostek, 32, has long been open about her relationship with Gronkowski, whom she met at a charity event in 2013, and how they’ve evolved.
“Rob and I have been together for many years,” Kostek told Page Six in May. “We’ve had our ups, we’ve had our downs, and we’ve been able to break up, do our thing and get back together and heal in different ways, and learn and grow through the years.”
She’s currently featured in the 2024 edition of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit.
