Tara Reid Reminisces About Fun Times With Tom Brady

In a recent interview with Bustle, actress Tara Reid opened up about a brief but memorable chapter from her past, shedding light on her connection with former NFL star Tom Brady. 

Tara, known for her role in American Pie, revealed that she and Tom crossed paths in the early 2000s, before her engagement to Carson Daly in October 2000. While the romance was short-lived, the actress, now 48, fondly remembers the good times she shared with Brady, who is 46 years old.

“It was nothing serious, but it was fun. We’d go to beer places and have fun and dance. He was cool,” she recalled.

Tara also commented on the transformation she has noticed in Tom over the years. “He’s all skinny now. He’s so serious. He used to laugh. When I watch his interviews, he’s so cocky now,” she added, highlighting the changes time can bring to a person’s demeanor.

This would not be the first time Tara would mention her connection with Tom. In a 2014 interview on Australia’s The Kyle & Jackie O Show, she casually mentioned, “[We] have kissed. He’s pretty good-looking.” 

Fast forward to 2022, during an interview with NBC Sports Boston, Tara revisited her past, saying, “I dated Tom Brady. He was a great guy. He’s a really nice guy, a really sweet guy. We had a lot of fun.” 

Tom’s life took its own twists and turns as well. He went on to date Bridget Moynahan, with whom he shares a 16-year-old son, Jack. The former quarterback eventually married supermodel Gisele Bündchen in 2009, and they welcomed two children together: son Ben, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11. However, their marriage ended in divorce in 2022.

Tara and Carson, who were once engaged, decided to part ways in 2001. Today, the American Pie star is in a loving relationship with Nathan Montpetit-Howar, who serves as the president of Phantom Acoustics, a sound technology company. In her own words, “He’s my best friend, my partner in crime; he’s patient like no other.” 

Nathan also had kind words for her, describing her as “all heart.” Their connection, forged at a dinner party five years ago, according to Tara.
