“Wait till the end!”: NFL legend hints at unexpected modeling career alongside Sports Illustrated Swimsuit girlfriend

Rob Gronkowski’s always been comfortable in the spotlight, but fans weren’t expecting this kind of ‘announcement’. The former NFL star – better known for flattening defenders than flaunting fashion – set tongues wagging after joking about launching a modeling career in his girlfriend’s Instagram reel.

“Wait till the end. My modeling career just started!” Gronk teased, after popping up shirtless beside longtime partner Camille Kostek.

Kostek, a former Patriots cheerleader and current Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, recently announced a new swimsuit collection in collaboration with La Porte. The reel was meant to spotlight her designs – but Gronk may have stolen the scene.

Together since 2013, the couple usually keeps things light on social media. But this time, Gronk’s accidental cameo had some fans pondering whether a new career path might actually be in play.

While the four-time Super Bowl champ is busy with TV gigs and a new movie, Bad News on the Doorstep, his sudden foray into modeling – even jokingly – adds another twist to his post-NFL antics. And if that doesn’t work out? There’s always his pickleball game.
