Tom Brady has had the exact opposite of a boring offseason, and a little trip he supposedly took with actor and director Ben Affleck may have made things even more interesting than we could have imagined.
According to a report from the New York Post, Brady was with Affleck at around the same time the you-know-what hit the fan with Affleck’s wife Jennifer Garner. A photo that was obtained by the Post appears to show Affleck’s nanny, Christine Ouzounian, proudly posing with Brady’s four Super Bowl rings on a private jet.

Rumor has it Affleck was in the Bahamas with the 28-year-old Ouzounian and Garner when he asked Ouzounian — unbeknownst to his now-estranged wife — to join him on a flight back to Los Angeles. Hollywood Life reports that Affleck stopped to pick up Brady — his longtime buddy — along the way and then headed to Las Vegas for a poker tournament.
“Ben asked Christina if she wanted to fly back to Los Angeles with him from the Bahamas. He assured her it was OK. Technically, he was her boss, not Jen,” a source reportedly told Hollywood Life. “But along the way, he convinced her to go to Las Vegas with him for his poker tournament. They even stopped and picked up Tom Brady for the trip. While in Vegas, Ben hid Christine the entire time.”
Garner supposedly caught wind of the secret trip and flipped out. Ouzounian is suing after claiming she was wrongfully terminated and never had an affair with Affleck.
If you want to know how hardcore of a Boston sports fan Affleck is, just read this story. The fact that Brady has now made his way into the Affleck-Garner drama while dealing with Deflategate and preparing for the regular season is pretty entertaining.
