Despite recent rumors, Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady’s family insist the couple is not engaged. TMZ reported last week that Tom proposed to Gisele on Christmas Eve, and she readily accepted. Not so, says the couple’s family.

Brady’s father, Tom Brady Sr., told The Boston Globe on Friday that reports of his son’s engagement were “rumor, rumor, rumor … We don’t know a thing about it. Nobody told me. We talked to him and there’s nothing to say.”

Bundchen’s twin sister, Patricia, also denied the report, saying in an e-mail that the engagement story is “not true.”

Bundchen’s rep declined to comment. Stacey James, a spokesman for the Patriots, responded, “I heard the report that he [proposed] on a plane, but I don’t think it’s true.” Still, he added, “Tom keeps his private life private.”

Tom and Gisele were spotted on Boston’s Beacon Street (just a couple blocks away from my apartment, btw) on Friday night, and Gisele was not wearing an engagement ring… which is good, because I probably would have leapt off my fire escape and mugged her for it.
