It all began with Dykstra’s flurry of tweets when the news about Brady’s divorce first surfaced. The proposal dates back to when news of Brady’s divorce first broke, with Dykstra taking to Twitter to offer his support. The former baseball player seemed pretty involved in the matter, with one of his first tweets saying that Brady didn’t seem to be shaken up about the divorce.

He then replied to his own tweet with an offer to be his wingman “Reaching out to Tom Brady… If the breakup with Gisele is hitting you hard, and you want to get back out there and maybe find at the very least a lady to converse and share your feelings with, I’m here for you. Happy to be your wingman in this challenging time!”
