Friends fear Taron Egerton’s Baywatch girlfriend and her ‘brutal’ reality star sisters will derail his Hollywood career

HE IS the working class boy from Wales who conquered Hollywood as Sir Elton John in Rocketman.

She’s the Louisiana-born Baywatch actress whose reality TV family want to be the next Kardashians.

Together, Taron Egerton and Brooks Nader have become showbusiness’s hottest couple with their very public displays of affection.

But behind the steamy snogs, Taron’s inner circle is sounding the alarm.

For I can reveal, that the 36-year-old Kingsman heartthrob’s prestige acting career could be spectacularly derailed by the chaotic circus of Brooks’s life, and her ferociously protective, camera-hungry family.

As my insider warned: “This could all end in disaster. He doesn’t know what he has gotten himself into. She will eat him alive.”

Ambitious Brooks, 29, who grew up in America’s deep south, moved to New York in 2016 and rose to fame after winning the Sports Illustrated’s Swim Search model casting call.

She has since gone through a divorce, had a sizzling romance – and messy breakup – with her partner on Dancing with the Stars, and scored her own reality television show Love Thy Nader.

But it is not just one Nader Taron has to contend with.

She also has a brood of high-flying sisters who all live together in Manhattan and keep a watchful eye on their big sis.

Dubbed the “Wannabe Kardashians”, Brooks and her photogenic sisters – Sarah Jane, Grace Ann, and Mary Holland – became smash hit reality stars when their show launched last year on Disney+.

If his relationship with Brooks hits a speedbump, Taron won’t just be dealing with a private heartbreak – he’ll be dealing with the wrath of the sisters and a Hulu camera crew capturing every excruciating detail.

As one insider summarised the situation: “Who knows if this is happily ever after. But it could spectacularly backfire for Taron if things get messy. The Nader sisters are brutal and unafraid to play dirty to protect their own.”

The Louisiana-raised siblings swapped the country for the bright lights of New York and Los Angeles, and they absolutely do not take prisoners.

In the first season of their show, which quickly became a guilty pleasure for millions of viewers, the sisters famously tore shreds into Brooks’s exes.

They had choice, cutting words for her former husband, advertising executive Billy Haire, whom she divorced in 2024, with Brook herself saying she married him “for rent purposes”.

When she was asked on a chat show what she thought about her ex remarrying, Brooks remarked: “Which ex?”

But the sisters saved their unfiltered venom for her Dancing With the Stars partner and ex-boyfriend, Gleb Savchenko.

The pair met when they were partnered on the dance show, and sister Grace Ann revealed they hit it right from the off.

‘Highly dangerous tightrope’

She explained in eye-watering detail: “I can tell you firsthand, every time I visited Brooks’ trailer, the trailer was shaking — every single time.”

But Brooks’s whirlwind fling with the Russian dancer imploded months later, but made great reality television.

The sisters discovered he had left his phone in their flat and quickly went about searching the device while being filmed for the series.

Brooks said they were “shocked” by what they found. She said on the episode: “All these screenshots of my boobs. What the f— is this? There’s like a million girls in here. This is a week ago.”

She then found a contact labeled “Threesome girl, Joshua Tree,” and broke down in tears.

Gleb vehemently denied the allegations, but the truth hardly mattered once the Nader sisters went to war.

They cornered him both on-screen and off, acting as Brooks’s personal attack dogs.

Brooks later admitted that watching herself “crying on the bathroom floor” over the split was the hardest part of filming the show,

But she also issued a chilling warning to anyone who might doubt her family’s investigative skills, proudly claiming: “My sisters are my sources.”

With these glamorous private investigators, any misstep Taron makes is guaranteed to end up in the next season.

Reality television thrives on conflict, and the Nader sisters know exactly how to deliver it

Insider

This is exactly why Hollywood insiders are so nervous for the Welsh actor. A-list directors and prestige studios often shy away from actors embroiled in reality TV circus acts.

My insider added: “By aligning himself with a star whose life, heartbreak, and family drama are filmed for public consumption, Taron is stepping onto a highly dangerous tightrope. Reality television thrives on conflict, and the Nader sisters know exactly how to deliver it.”

But he does not seem deterred. The pair have been painting California red over the last week, looking thoroughly besotted with one another.

Since The Sun revealed earlier this week that they were dating, they’ve been spotted holding hands outside luxury steakhouses and grabbing intimate drinks at Shutters on the Beach.

Yet, as the romance heats up, there are dark whispers in Hollywood, with some questioning the authenticity of the sudden pairing.

A more cynical insider even suggested that the highly photographed romance might be a well-orchestrated PR stunt designed to mutually boost their profiles.

‘Extremely ambitious’

Taron, despite his undeniable talent, has slipped off the radar slightly since his meteoric run with Rocketman and the Apple TV+ prison drama Black Bird.

Meanwhile, Brooks is “extremely ambitious” and “desperate” to cement her burgeoning reality TV empire.

Still a source told The Sun, Taron is “very keen” on the swimwear model, but this highly public romance is a stark departure from his roots.

Born in Birkenhead but raised in the quiet seaside town of Aberystwyth, small-town boy Taron has until now kept his private life discreet.

When he burst onto the scene as a council estate rebel turned superspy in Kingsman: The Secret Service, he was praised for his grounded nature.

He dated assistant director Emily Thomas for six years, keeping the romance strictly low-key and away from red carpets before they quietly parted ways.

He later had a brief, under-the-radar Hollywood romance with actress Chloe Bennet that quietly fizzled out in 2025.

However, the famously cheeky star hasn’t been entirely mute about his romantic preferences or his prowess as a boyfriend in past interviews.

Speaking to Andy Cohen, Taron confessed he wasn’t looking for a specific body type, laughing as he admitted his actual preference.

He joked “I’m probably more of an a** man… I’ve got a big butt. Quite a big round butt. When we’re walking away hand-in-hand as a couple, it’s not going to look right [if she doesn’t]. It won’t work.”

He even doubled down while reading thirsty fan tweets online during a promotional tour, cheekily declaring to the camera, “I’m quite proud of my a**, actually.”

And when he does fall for someone, he falls incredibly hard.

Recalling a romantic gesture for his ex, Emily, he once revealed, “When my girlfriend and I first got together, I took her to Claridge’s hotel in London, and I had them deliver a necklace to the room.”

He has confidently described himself in the past as an “attentive, thorough, enthusiastic” lover.

But all the attentive enthusiasm in the world might not be enough to shield him from the Nader family.
