Camille Kostek opens up about exclusion within the Patriots ' social circle 'I don't want to be in a room where people talk behind your back,' Camille Kostek admitted in a recent interview, referencing her discomfort navigating the Foxborough social scene. While fans celebrated victories, she says she was battling subtle but relentless scrutiny—especially for not having a ring from Rob Gronkowski and for pursuing her own thriving modeling career. Silent judgment and unspoken expectations behind the scenes For Kostek, the unspoken hierarchy within the Patriots' social sphere became painfully clear. 'It was almost like if you're not at every single foundation or charitable event, you don't belong.' She often felt isolated and unwelcomed, even while sitting in Bill Belichick's suite alongside Linda Holliday. 'It wasn't like anyone said, 'You can't sit with us.' It just felt that way,' she said. It wasn't until Gronk signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that Camille says she finally felt embraced.
