Tom Brady’s model admirer, Veronika Rajek, talks ‘perfect man’ as QB starts dating again

Tom Brady’s model admirer is looking for a “manly man” who plays sports.

Veronika Rajek — the 26-year-old Slovakian model who went viral in December when she supported the former Buccaneers quarterback during a win over the Saints — described her “perfect man” and shared the one “similarity” that a potential partner must have with her.

“He must be tall, and above all, a gentleman,” Rajek, who is 5-foot-11, told Marca in an interview published Sunday.

“I am looking for men to be honest and to be funny. You don’t impress me with cars, I don’t care if you have a BMW or a Mercedes… it just needs four wheels and that’s it. I’m not bothered by expensive clothes either.

“For me, the most important thing is behavior because I think in this era there are not many gentlemen: men don’t hold the door for you, men don’t help you sit down in a restaurant… these are the tiny details that make the difference.”

Rajek, who has over four million followers on Instagram, garnered attention in the sports world when she declared her love for Brady in a December post. 

“I saw the LEGEND and if somebody asks me again if I love Brady, yes I love him, and show me somebody who doesn’t,” Rajek wrote at the time, including photos of herself wearing Brady’s No. 12 Buccaneers jersey at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.

While Rajek and Brady have not been seriously linked, she has garnered plenty of media attention since her gameday appearance.

Her most recent interview comes as Brady has re-entered the dating game.

Page Six exclusively reported the details Monday, with a source saying the 45-year-old future Hall of Famer “is dating around.”

“He’s shopping,” the source said. “He is out and about.”

The model has often been compared to Brady’s ex-wife, Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bündchen — who was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 1999-2006.

Rajek went on to explain in the Marca interview why she needs a man who’s tall and plays sports.

“Visually speaking, men need to be tall — ideally more than 190cm [6-foot-2] because I am very tall and if I wear high heels, I am even taller,” the model said.

“It’s not that I don’t like shorter men, the issue is that they start to feel insecure around me and I don’t want to make men insecure. I need a manly man. I prefer an athletic man, it’s important that you do sports three or four times a week. If you don’t have this similarity with me, then that’s not good.”

The blonde beauty admitted that she’s done caring about physical appearance in a potential suitor, and is now looking for a deep connection with someone.

“I don’t care about hair or eye color,” she said. “The most important is having that connection, that click with someone. 

“Of course, ultimately women are looking for a man who will be a good partner and father. The age when I cared about looks is gone. Men must be stable and mentally stable.

Rajek then joked about “looking for men who can handle drama because I will be their drama.”

Bündchen, 42, recently opened up about her divorce from the retired quarterback in a cover interview with “Vanity Fair.”

The ex-couple finalized their divorce in October after 13 years of marriage.

Brady announced that he was retiring “for good” on Feb. 1.

In a separate interview, Rajek told The Sun last month that her “biggest dream” is to be on the cover of “Sports Illustrated” — and that she previously wanted to be a Victoria’s Secret model.

“I don’t know where I’ll be in 10 years but I hope I’ll be a good, supportive mother and have a nice family,” she said at the time.

The Slovak native, who currently resides in Mexico, said on the “Pillow Talk” podcast in January that she wants to live in the United States, but it is not easy to become a citizen.
