Tom Brady spotted in Donald Trump's luxury suite at Club World Cup final amid Sofia Vergara fling rumors
The NFL icon could be seen walking on the MetLife Stadium sideline before the game with Patriots owner Robert Kraft and Fanatics founder Michael Rubin.
But he also made his way into Trump's suite at one point, with the Commander-in-Chief seen in the background of one photo as Brady had a conversation.
Brady caused controversy in 2015 when a 'Make America Great Again' hat was spotted in his locker, and he later called Trump a 'good friend' during an appearance that year on WEEI.
However, he declined to answer in a press conference when asked if he was in support of Trump's first run for office.
In 2022, he told Variety that the pair hadn't spoken in 'a lot of years,' and that the nature of their relationship had been 'mischaracterized' by the media.
Kraft, meanwhile, has said that he was previously a 'social friend' of Trump's and donated to his first inauguration.
However, he revealed on The Breakfast Club last year that he had also ceased contact with the president.
'I will say this: I was very upset [with] what happened January 6,' Kraft said. 'And I haven't talked to him since then.'
During the game, Brady was seen sitting next to Rubin as Chelsea produced a rampant first half to take a 3-0 lead before the break, via two Cole Palmer goals and a goal from Joao Pedro (which was assisted by Palmer as well).
Trump's Marine One helicopter was seen touching down near the stadium roughly 35 minutes before the game.
The chopper arrived at Teterboro Airport before Trump got in a motorcade to take him to East Rutherford for the match, which he attended with first lady Melania Trump.
Trump was also seen watching the match with FIFA president Gianni Infantino.
Trump's son, Donald Jr., and his girlfriend Bettina Anderson were also seen headed to the game, as was the president's son-in-law, Jared Kushner.
Brady 's appearance at the game came amid reports that he had been enjoying a 'summer romance' with actress Sofia Vergara.
The pair were first seen spending time together on Ritz-Carlton's superyacht 'Luminara' off the Italian coast after Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's wedding.
The NFL legend was said to have specifically requested to sit next to the actress at dinner during the exclusive two-day voyage (which was part of the wedding celebrations) - and the pair spent time together in Ibiza afterwards.
But the Daily Mail later revealed that the pair are not officially dating, and that 47-year-old Brady wishes to stay single.
Brady has been divorced from his ex-wife Gisele Bundchen since October 2022, when their 13 years of marriage came to an end. T
Vergara, meanwhile, is also newly single following her divorce from Joe Manganiello in 2024.

Two-goal hero Cole Palmer says Chelsea silenced doubters with Club World Cup win
The England international scored two fine goals and set up a third for Joao Pedro as the Blues claimed a stunning 3-0 win over Champions League winners Paris St Germain at the MetLife Stadium. Victory, which landed the Blues a jackpot in excess of £90million, was also a tactical triumph for manager Enzo Maresca. Asked about how the team is developing under the Italian, Palmer told DAZN: 'He's building something special, something important with a young team. 'Everyone's talked a lot of s*** about us all season, but I feel like we're going in the right direction.' Reflecting on the game, Palmer added: 'Obviously it's a great feeling, even better because everyone doubted us before the game. We knew that and to go out there and put a fight on like we did against a great team, yes, it's good. 'The gaffer put a great gameplan out. Obviously he knew where the space was going to be and he tried to free me up as much as possible, and I just had to repay him and score some goals.' Palmer – whose double and assist all came within the space of 21 first-half minutes – was also the decisive player as Chelsea beat Real Betis in the Europa Conference League final in May. Maresca said: 'These are the games where we expect Cole to appear – big games and big moments – and once again he showed how good he is.' The tournament itself has been controversial and derided in many quarters but Maresca is in no doubt of the prestige it will bring the club. As well as the significant prize money, Chelsea will be entitled to wear a badge on their shirts confirming their status as world champions for the next four years. Maresca said: 'I think it will become as important as the Champions League and we value it as much as winning the Champions League. 'It has been the (best) effort from the team and all the players. I am very happy, especially for them because they deserve the moment. 'Had you told me we were going to win 3-0 in the first half I wouldn't have expected that but we knew we were going to put up a fight and we knew our squad is really competitive against talented teams.' PSG's misery was complete five minutes from time when Joao Neves was sent off for pulling Marc Cucurella's hair. Frustration was also evident as scuffles broke out after the final whistle. PSG manager Luis Enrique became involved in one incident that ended with Pedro on the ground. Enrique said: 'I saw Maresca had pushed others (away) and we had to separate all the players. 'This is a situation we must all avoid. My intention is that I wanted to separate the footballers so the situation didn't become worse.'

Kristi Noem takes NBC host to task after liberal tears over 'inhumane' Alligator Alcatraz
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem made a fiery appearance on NBC's Meet the Press on Sunday as she fiercely defended the Trump administration's controversial new migrant detention center in the Florida Everglades, dubbed 'Alligator Alcatraz.' The interview came after Democratic lawmakers described the facility as a humanitarian nightmare. In a blistering exchange with NBC anchor Kristen Welker, Noem accused Democrats of hypocrisy and political theater after a congressional tour of the facility ended with accusations of inhumane treatment and squalid conditions. 'I wish they would've said that during the Biden administration,' Noem said as Welker repeatedly pressed her about reports of overcrowded cells and unsanitary water sources. 'They were piling people on top of each other on cement floors... and they didn't have two feet to move. They never did that, and that's why this politics has to end.' The clash came just 24 hours after Florida Democrat Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz and other Democrats toured the newly opened compound and compared it to an internment camp. 'There are really disturbing, vile conditions and this place needs to be shut the hell down,' Wasserman Schultz told reporters. 'This place is a stunt, and they're abusing human beings here.' According to lawmakers on the tour, more than 30 migrants were packed into cage-style cells with just three combination sink-toilets. Temperatures hovered in the mid-80s inside medical intake tents. Grasshoppers, mosquitoes, and other insects were rampant. One detainee reportedly shouted, 'I'm an American citizen!' while others chanted 'Libertad!', Spanish for 'freedom.' Welker confronted Noem with such claims: 'Thirty people stuffed into a jail cell? Drinking water from the same place they use the bathroom?' But Noem appeared unshaken and fired back. 'Our detention centers at the federal level are held to a higher standard than most local or state centers and even federal prisons. The standards are extremely high. This is a state-run facility, but it still exceeds the requirements.' She elaborated: 'I have been there and I have seen the rooms they are in. I will call them jail cells - it's a facility where they are held that are secure and meet the highest levels of what the government requires for detention.' When Welker pushed further, saying Democrats have 'called them cages,' Noem announced that the administration would soon allow cameras into the facility. 'We'll take cameras and show people what the facilities look like. Because if you compare them to what happened under the Biden and Obama administrations, these centers are at the highest levels - even higher than our federal prison standards.' Noem also disclosed plans for expansion. 'We are going to expand,' she told Welker. 'We're actively looking at how to open more detention sites like this one. We are looking for more information and how we can get more detention.' Noem stood by the facility and doubled down, revealing that five Republican governors have already spoken with her about using the Florida site as a model. 'We are going to expand,' Noem said. 'We're actively looking at how to open more detention sites like this one.' Currently, media access remains blocked and journalists were not allowed to attend Saturday's tour. Legislators were also barred from bringing phones or cameras inside. Critics, including attorneys and advocacy groups, claim the facility is little more than a prison camp hidden deep in Florida's swamps. Detainees have reported worms in the food, overflowing toilets, and 24-hour lockdowns in cages teeming with mosquitoes. At least one minor and several individuals with no criminal record are reportedly being held. 'These are human beings who have inherent rights, and they have a right to dignity,' immigration attorney Josephine Arroyo said. 'They're violating a lot of their rights by putting them there.' A Venezuelan detainee described the facility as a 'zoo cage,' adding that detainees were being pressured to sign self-deportation documents. There are several people protesting outside the Alligator Alcatraz facility Republican lawmakers say the criticisms are exaggerated. 'The rhetoric coming out of the Democrats does not match the reality,' Florida State Senator Blaise Ingoglia said. 'The living quarters were clean. The air conditioning worked well. No squalor.' State Senator Jay Collins, a US Army veteran who toured a different section, agreed. 'Would I want that toilet-and-sink combination at my house? Probably not, but this is a transitional holding facility.' Division of Emergency Management spokesperson Stephanie Hartman called the reports of mistreatment 'completely false.' 'The facility meets all required standards and is in good working order,' Hartman said. 'Every detainee gets three meals a day, unlimited drinking water, showers, and other necessities.' The Alligator Alcatraz facility was constructed in days and built on a remote airstrip in the Everglades. It now holds nearly 900 detainees but has a capacity of over 3,000.

Armie Hammer's ex Paige Lorenze announces engagement to tennis star Tommy Paul as she shows off huge diamond ring
Armie Hammer 's ex-girlfriend Paige Lorenze is engaged to tennis star Tommy Paul. The 27-year-old influencer — who was infamously branded by Hammer — announced the news via social media on Sunday. Taking to Instagram, she shared three engagement photos taken by photographer Brenna Marie and captioned, 'forever,' with a white heart emoji. The photo shoot was staged on a beach and the Dairy Boy founder wore a lacy white dress. She showed off her huge diamond ring in closeup photos posted via Instagram Stories. Amid Armie's cannibalism and abuse scandal in 2021, Lorenze came forward to accuse him of 'marking and branding' her during their 'traumatic' four-month relationship in 2020. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Paige Lorenze (@paigelorenze) She later alleged to that Hammer had carved the initial 'A' into her groin with a knife during a kinky sexual encounter that got out of control. But Hammer claimed in a July 2024 interview with Piers Morgan that he technically didn't 'brand' Lorenze and that blood was never drawn. 'I wouldn't say brand, no,' Hammer said at the time. He explained, 'There was a scenario that we talked about beforehand, that we had discussed where, you know, I would basically take a little, tiny point and just kind of trace the letter 'A' — just like the tip of a small knife.' He continued: 'I mean, there wasn't even blood in the situation. It was more like a scrape… It's along the lines of couples getting their own initials tattooed on each other.' 'It was like a real life 50 Shades Of Grey without the love,' Paige told 'His actions and behavior are dangerous and emotionally and psychologically damaging. He is saying people are kink-shaming him and should not comment on his sex life, but BDSM is a smoke screen for him wanting to hurt women. 'You can be just as traumatized by consensual sex. It's unacceptable that he coerces women into agreeing to let him hurt them,' she added. In a statement to Hammer's lawyer responded: 'These assertions about Mr. Hammer are patently untrue. Any interactions with this person, or any partner of his, were completely consensual in that they were fully discussed, agreed upon, and mutually participatory.' Paige's husband-to-be Tommy made history in June, becoming the first American man in the French Open quarterfinals since Andre Agassi in 2003. They met during the US Open in 2022 and confirmed their relationship months later in October 2022. In addition to Armie, her former flames include the Bachelor's Tyler Cameron and country music star Morgan Wallen.
