Putting her foot down. Gisele Bündchen just shaded Tom Brady amid all their divorce drama. The model liked and commented on an Instagram post that may reflect her feelings toward her husband.
The post, shared by podcaster Jay Shetty read, “You can’t be in a committed relationship with someone who is inconsistent with you. Read that again.” Gisele liked and commented under the post, “🙏.” Meanwhile, Tom has been candid on his podcast about where he is in life. “There’s things I’m going through in my 40s and it’s life,” he said on his podcast Let’s Go! with Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray, “And you learn to grow up and you learn to deal with life. And that’s what we’re all trying to do. We’re trying to do it the best way we can.”
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback continued, “I think you realize that there’s a lot, especially in today’s day and age, with how fast things are happening in life for all of us, and the amount of responsibilities we have.” Tom also said that he holds himself to a “certain standard that we’re almost inhuman,” noting that he’s also “immune” to a lot of the “things that life brings” over time. “You wake up every day trying to do the best you can do, understanding that life has its stresses,” he added. “And to deal with them with a great support system and understanding and having some introspectiveness in your life where you can look at yourself and say, ‘Where do I need to commit my time and energy to? And how can I lessen some of the stress and lessen the burden on me so that I can be good for people around me.’”
According to Page Six on October 4, 2022, the couple is trying to hire divorce lawyers. A source told the outlet, “I never actually thought this argument would be the end of them, but it looks like it is. I don’t think there will be any coming back now. They both have lawyers and are looking at what a split will entail, who gets what and what the finances will be.” Another source told People that Tom is “trying to figure out what to do” after Gisele hired her own divorce lawyer and is finding one for himself.
A source also told Us Weekly at the time that Gisele—who was “living apart” from Tom when she hired her divorce lawyer and had been “at odds” with her husband for months—was waiting for him to make a “big gesture” after he learned her thoughts about divorce were serious. “Gisele is waiting for Tom to make a big gesture of support to her,” the insider said.
Several sources also reported in October 2022 that Tom and Gisele had marital issues for a while, but this time feels final. According to a report by TMZ on October 7, 2022, Gisele has threatened to divorce Tom for years before she hired a lawyer. The insider claimed that all the arguments were over the same topic: football. Another source told People on October 7, 2022, “[The problems] are 10 years old,” the insider said of the couple. “This has been going on forever. This is nothing new to either of them.” Another source also told People at the time that Gisele is “done” with Tom and doesn’t think their relationship can be “repaired.” “She is done with their marriage,” an insider close to the model said. “She was upset about it for a long time and it’s still difficult, but she feels like she needs to move on. She doesn’t believe that her marriage can be repaired.”
