'My knees actually got weak when he walked into my trailer,' she admitted to The Hollywood Reporter.
'I'm in awe of that kind of skill. When somebody is the best in the world at what they do, you have to honor that and respect it. I was just awestruck.'
She continued, 'He was kind and humble, which is hard to believe considering how brilliant he is at what he does, but it's true. He was also sweet and polite.'
80 for Brady tells of story of four women who get together and take a trip to Houston for the 2017 Super Bowl, in which Tom led the New England Patriots to a historic comeback victory.
