Jaylen Brown is having himself quite the year in 2023.

It once appeared that Brown would be headed out of Boston as many called for him and Jayson Tatum to be broken up. The Celtics felt differently as they gave him the richest deal in NBA history — a record 5-year, $304 million supermax extension.

Outside of the money he will bring in is the fact that many are just now finding out that he has been dating a notable Instagram model who is way older than him.

Brown, who is 26, has been dating 43-year-old Bernice Burgos as they were first linked in September 2022, when they were reportedly spotted dancing together in a New York City pub. Burgos, a Bronx native, is a mother and a grandmother who’s been linked to a number of celebrities and athletes.

She has two daughters, with one of them being one year older than Brown. Burgos became a grandmother when Ashley Marie Burgos, 27, welcomed a daughter named India Ava Aisha in February 2018.

The 43-year-old model is going viral for how incredible she looks at her age, especially when she is in a bikini.



Burgos, who has 7.2 million followers on Instagram, is a Fashion Nova ambassador and often shares photos and videos endorsing the celeb-loved brand.

Brown’s $304 million contract will kick in for the 2024-25 season. He played some of his best basketball for the Celtics last regular season, setting new career highs with 26.6 points per game off 49.1 percent shooting, 6.9 rebounds per game, and matching his career-best at 3.5 assists per game. Those numbers earned Brown his second NBA All-Star nod.

Brown continued his strong play in the postseason and helped the Celtics get to the Eastern Conference Finals, but the team would fall to the Miami Heat in Game 7.
