In a recent OutKick YouTube episode, Clay Travis sits down with Charly Arnolt to discuss the moments leading up to Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen’s divorce. The gorgeous 36-year-old sports broadcaster opened the episode by recounting her experience meeting Tom Brady. She recounted how she was able to get a one-on-one talk with him at the Fanatics party at the Super Bowl this year and how she was awed by the star’s presence. But she dismissed any speculation that might arise about Brady flirting with her. “He was not hitting on me. It was not a flirtatious conversation. He is not looking to move on from Gisele with me.”
