Brooks Nader Reveals Her Period Led to a Wardrobe Mishap at Wimbledon — and People Are Praising Her for ‘Being Real'
Brooks Nader got her period and bled through her white midi skirt at Wimbledon in London on July 4
The model poked fun at herself over the wardrobe mishap on TikTok, sharing a clip of a blood stain on her white skirt
'A canon event for all us girlies,' a TikTok user commentedBrooks Nader is keeping it real.
The 28-year-old model was at day five of the Wimbledon Championships in a white midi skirt on July 4 when — seemingly unexpectedly — she got her period, she revealed in a candid TikTok video.
In the video of Nader at the London tennis tournament, she began by showing herself from the torso up before flipping the camera to her friends making judgmental expressions — all while a cartoon-like blinking sound played in the background.
Then, the camera returned to the model, who turned around to reveal a small stain in the back of her white bottoms. But Nader took the mishap in stride, flipping back her hair as the video panned down to the stain.
Nader joked that she tried 'to be chic' with her ensemble — complete with a polka-dot top, sunglasses and a bouncy blowout — but instead, started her '🩸[period] at Wimbledon.'
'Of course 🎾,' the model added in the caption of the clip.
As the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover model poked fun at herself and the unfortunate situation, TikTok users filled her comments with gratitude for 'being real' by highlighting such a common but taboo occurrence.
"You're so real for this,' one user wrote, while another said, 'Thank you for being real👏👏.'
Others echoed this, thanking Nader for posting the relatable moment because 'every girl has had this happen 😭.'
'A canon event for all us girlies,' another user added.
Nader's Wimbledon appearance comes amid a busy summer.
Earlier this year, the model announced that she — along with her three younger sisters, who are also models — will be starring in a reality show set to air this summer.
Like her, Nader's sisters Mary Holland, Grace Ann and Sarah Jane all moved from Louisiana to New York City, where they have each embarked on careers modeling. Love Thy Nader, coming to Hulu and Freeform, is described as a "coming-of-age docuseries" that "follows the unapologetic and determined Nader sisters,' per a press release.

News of the forthcoming series follows Nader's headline-making stint on season 33 of Dancing with the Stars alongside pro Gleb Savchenko. The pair — who were eliminated from the competition series in October — sparked romance rumors during their time on the competition show.
Though the duo never made their relationship official, PEOPLE confirmed they went their separate ways in April. According to a source, Nader suspected that the DWTS pro, 41, cheated on her and called things off.
A rep for Savchenko had no comment when reached by PEOPLE.
