However the romance was only confirmed recently by Miketin.
Photos emerged this week of Zimmer and Miketin enjoying dinner together, while the model also posted a photo in a suite at a Vikings game.
When asked to confirm the romance rumours by Egotastic Sports, Mikatin did exactly that.
Miketin, who is the cover model for the December edition of Maxim Australia, recently opened up about her dating life.
“Ask any of my friends, I have no ‘type,’” she said.
“If I were to say what I am attracted to, I would say it is someone who is secure, extremely loyal, very driven and loves a healthy lifestyle.
“My heart is big and is receptive – almost to a fault.
“He can surprise me with little things. I love flowers, I love when he helps me out and makes little gestures that make my life easier.
“If they take my dog to the vet or go grocery shopping for me, I am theirs! I hate grocery shopping.
Supermodel Katarina Miketin has confirmed her relationship with Minnesota Vikings coach Mike Zimmer following months of rumours.
Zimmer, 65, has been rumoured to be dating the 40-year-old model since late last year.
