Saying Goodbye To The GOAT: Tom Brady And Gisele Bundchen Are Officially Divorced
It’s official, folks. After 10 years of marriage, supermodel Gisele Bundchen and NFL legend Tom Brady are throwing in the towel. Sources close to the couple tell TMZ that divorce documents are filed. Bringing an end to one of Hollywood’s most enviable unions.
Of course, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen a high-profile celebrity divorce play out in the public eye. But what makes this particular split so fascinating is just how dysfunctional it appears to be. From Tom’s struggles on the football field to the couple’s former nanny living in their guest house, there’s no shortage of drama here. Let’s take a closer look at what might have led to the demise of this Hollywood power couple. Tom is worth $330M and Gisele $400M
Tom says in a statement, “In recent days, my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage. We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together. We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way. We will continue to work together as parents to always ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve.”
Gisele says pretty much the same thing, saying, “The decision to end a marriage is never easy, but we have grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always.”
What Went Wrong?
There are many theories about what led to Tom and Gisele’s divorce, but one thing is for sure—this couple was under a lot of stress long before they decided to call it quits. For starters, Tom retired and then unretired from the NFL last year when Gisele has been vocal about worrying about her husband’s health long term from the sport and was ready for him to hang it up.
Then there are Gisele’s modeling career and her various philanthropic pursuits. Although she announced her retirement from runway modeling back in 2015, Gisele is still considered one of the most successful supermodels of all time. In recent years, she has increasingly shifted her focus to environmental causes—a subject that is dear to her heart. Given her hectic work schedule and packed travel itinerary, it had been hard to spend time with her husband.
Whether you love them or hate them, you have to admit that Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen made for one interesting couple. From the beginnings back in 2009 to their very public split. There was never a dull moment in their 10-year marriage. So what went wrong? Only time will tell if we ever find out for sure. In the meantime, we’ll be keeping an eye on both Tom and Gisele as they move forward with their lives—separately.
