When Tom Brady first met the ‘love-of-his-life’ Gisele Bundchen, he was in a relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan. Although the Brazilian Supermodel confirmed that it was love at first sight as Brady and her ‘clicked’ so well. Eventually Brady broke up with Bridget to focus upon his relation Gisele.
Although Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen were spotted time and again, it was only until January 2007 that magazines and the media deemed them as a couple. However, just after a month this couple faced its first roadblock when Moynahan announced that she was pregnant with Brady’s child. Yet the Victoria Model stuck with her beloved one despite tough circumstances.
It took Tom Brady two years after the mentioned incident to finally pop the question to Bundchen and get engaged. Many reported that Brady did the same on a private plane, but as per Gisele Bundchen – she was tricked into thinking her house was flooded so she’d rush over. In February 2009 itself, Brady decided to marry Gisele in Santa Monica, California. The celebrations continued till April of the same year, when the pair invited their extended families to join them in Costa Rica, for another intimate ceremony.
As iconic as the couple was, they welcomed their first child – Benjamin Rein in December 2009. Gisele revealed that she delivered her son in the bathtub of their penthouse apartment in Massachusetts. Love seemed to be in the air with both these people doing fantastically well in their respective careers, when God blessed them with another child together. In the same month, 3 years later – Vivian Lake (daughter) was brought into the world. But this time around Bundchen did not reveal about her pregnancy until she gave berth.
Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen were being dragged to mud in 2015, when the media circulated news about the pair divorcing one another. However, the multiple-time Super Bowl Champ put the gossip to rest after suggesting that he is in a ‘great place’ with his wife.
This was quickly backed by Gisele Bundchen supporting her husband – Brady during the ‘Deflategate’ scandal of 2015. To those who cannot recall, the league investigated New England Patriots for providing under-inflated footballs. As a result of which Tom Brady was suspended for four games.
While Tom Brady revealed to Oprah Winfrey that he has had a discussion with his wife regarding what ‘more; he wants from his footballing career. It was in October 2018 that fans got to know that the power couple too has their fair share of problems. Gisele Bundchen released her memoir wherein she spoke about how difficult it is to keep up in a marriage and manage her career as well. Moreover, how hard it has been to adjust to life after becoming a mom.
As the media tried to raise speculations about Gisele Bundchen being urged to sacrifice more than needed, to keep her marriage alive. Brady once again came forward to clear the air in December 2019 to share the secret to a long-lasting marriage. Then in 2021, Gisele Bundchen was seen massively celebrating her husband’s 7th Super Bowl triumph, the first with Bucs, on the field as well as off it.
After an illustrious career of 22 years, Brady decided to hang his boots after his team was knocked out in the 2021-22 season’s playoff. Gisele instantly shared on her Instagram about how excited the couple was to start the ‘next chapter’ in their life. But it was only 40 days (in March 2022) until Brady decided to once again step on the field.
This is exactly where problems increased massively between the pair. The love bird not only started staying separately but even struck a rough patch, as media gave up on them trying to be together again. With rumors of the couple making demands to one another circulating strongly, it was only till October 2022 that things were officially made to end by both parties mutually. On Friday morning, Tom Brady confirmed that the official paperwork has been filed.
