Gisele Bündchen Made A Comment About Husband Tom Brady's Absence That Has Fans Asking Questions

For over a decade, NFL star Tom Brady and supermodel Gisele Bündchen have been the blueprint for power couples everywhere. But high-earning careers can also be high maintenance. While Bündchen seems to be a pro at balancing work and family life, the same can't necessarily be said for Brady. In fact, his sudden decision to retire — and then un-retire — in 2022 had fans questioning whether or not the golden couple's relationship was more strained than they were letting on. Now Bündchen has finally spoken out about Brady's actions, and she’s put some of these questions to rest.

The retiring type?

Despite announcing his retirement, quarterback Tom Brady hasn’t thrown in the towel. In fact, he threw it in, then took it back! It took only a matter of weeks for him to change course and sign back up with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But what does Brady’s wife — activist and model Gisele Bündchen — make of the back and forth? Well, she made her views on the matter very clear.

Ball games

Brady’s bowing out from professional football has been talked about so often by the couple over the years that it’s regarded as something of a joke. That said, it may be less “ha ha” and more “uh oh,” if media speculation about the matter is anything to go by. So has his decision to return to the field affected his life at home?

The run up

Let’s take a look at what happened before Brady told the world about his final touchdown. He’s had a long and illustrious life, both on and off the field. The highlights? Between 2001 and 2019 he played for the New England Patriots, and over 20 seasons, he notched up some eye-popping stats.

Quarterback attack

All anyone needs to know about Tom Brady’s career is that many regard him as the ultimate quarterback. Envied for his sporting skills, he then made eyes even greener by marrying supermodel Gisele Bündchen, who he met in 2006. It was reportedly a blind date, though we imagine the pair were pretty happy when they came face to face.
