Hollywood lights were flashing and fans were buzzing as stars gathered for the 2025 ESPY Awards—but it wasn’t just sports legends drawing attention.
Model and reality TV star Brooks Nader once again found herself in the headlines, not for her red carpet glow-up, but for another unexpected wardrobe blunder that stirred up conversation both online and off.
Brooks Stuns on the Red Carpet Before Things Slip—Literally
Brooks, 28, who first made waves after winning the Sports Illustrated Swim Search, looked radiant as she stepped onto the red carpet at the Dolby Theatre in a daring, low-cut silk dress in a dreamy cream shade.
With her signature blonde waves cascading down her shoulders and a confident smile on her face, she was every bit the showstopper.
But as eye-catching as her ensemble was, it didn’t take long before it took a turn.
The dress, which offered no room for undergarments, shifted at just the wrong moment, resulting in a brief nip slip that photographers quickly caught.
Ever the professional, Brooks tried to fix the issue discreetly, pulling the neckline back into place with both hands.
The Struggle Continued On and Off Stage
While presenting on stage alongside race car driver Joey Logano, Brooks was still seen clutching her dress cautiously.
And later that evening, as she made her way to dinner at Craig’s in West Hollywood, she continued adjusting the look—clearly still battling the rebellious gown.
Despite the hiccup, her overall look was stunning.
She completed her outfit with champagne-colored heels, voluminous curls, bold gold earrings, and a glam makeup look featuring smoky eyes and rosy blush.
A Pattern of Public Wardrobe Woes
This wasn’t the first time Brooks experienced a fashion mishap.
Earlier this summer, she went viral for an entirely different reason—a period stain at Wimbledon.
Dressed in an all-white tennis-inspired outfit, her menstrual cycle started unexpectedly and left a visible mark on the back of her skirt.
The moment, captured on TikTok, sparked both sympathy and applause from fans for her authenticity.
Brooks leaned into the moment with humor, posting a video where her sisters cringed while she turned around to reveal the visible stain.
She captioned it playfully: “Tries to be chic… starts [blood emoji] at Wimbledon.”
Fans flooded the comments with praise for her honesty, calling it a “canon event for all us girlies.”
Turning Mishaps Into a Movement
Rather than letting the incident embarrass her, Brooks used it as a launchpad.
This week, she announced a new partnership with U by Kotex, a leading menstrual product brand.
On Instagram, she reflected on her Wimbledon moment with a wink, posting: “The last time I wore all white, I had a mishap and it made headlines. This time, I’m not taking any chances and brought backup.”
The Dress That Just Wouldn’t Behave
The ESPYs weren’t the only time Brooks had to manage a fashion fail in public.
At the Fashion Los Angeles Awards in April, her structured outfit slid forward unexpectedly, resulting in another exposed moment.
It seems her red carpet looks have been as headline-making as her career milestones.
A Love Life Under the Spotlight
Brooks’ evening at the ESPYs came just months after news broke that she’d once again split from Gleb Savchenko, the professional dancer from Dancing With The Stars.
Their whirlwind romance began during the show last fall and was marked by accusations of being a staged “showmance.”
Though they tried to make things work after a brief breakup, the relationship ended again in April.
Tensions escalated when Brooks’ sister Grace publicly accused Gleb of cheating—a claim he vehemently denied in an interview with E! News, where he stated, “I’m not a cheater” and rejected the “f***boy” label.
Gleb, notably, had a turbulent divorce in 2020 from his ex-wife Elena Samodanova, who had also accused him of infidelity.
Rumors Swirl Around Brooks and Tom Brady
Adding more spice to her already buzzing social life, Brooks was spotted having a friendly chat with Tom Brady at billionaire Michael Rubin’s July 4th bash in the Hamptons.
The sighting quickly sparked whispers of a possible connection between the two.
Brooks is currently separated from her husband Billy Haire, with whom she was married for four years before their split in May 2024.
From Sports Illustrated to Streaming Stardom
Brooks has managed to build a career that blends modeling, media, and now reality TV.
After winning the SI Swim Search in 2019, she returned to the magazine’s cover last year—solidifying her place in the modeling elite.
Now, she’s bringing her family along for the ride.
Alongside her sisters Mary, Grace, and Sara, Brooks is set to star in Love Thy Nader, a new reality series premiering this summer on Hulu and Freeform.
The show promises a deep dive into the dynamic lives of the Nader sisters, offering viewers a front-row seat into their personal dramas and professional pursuits.
What’s Next for Brooks Nader?
Despite the occasional fashion faux pas, Brooks keeps moving forward—gracefully embracing both the chaos and the glamour of life in the spotlight.
From red carpet blunders to brand deals and budding reality stardom, she’s turning every moment—good, bad, and awkward—into a stepping stone.
And if the buzz around her is anything to go by, this isn’t the last we’ll hear from Brooks. Not even close.
