29 october 2024 в 19:13
NFL superstar quarterback Tom Brady, 45, and retired supermodel Gisele Bündchen, 42, were one of the most beautiful couples of our time. Unfortunately, the couple faced difficulties in their 13-year marriage due to Tom’s decision to return to the NFL. Tom and Gisele officially filed for divorce on October 28, and each of them released statements about the «difficult» decision.
Tom and Gisele hardly ever met, as two months after the start of their relationship, his ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan, 51, announced that she was pregnant with Tom’s child. The couple lasted 13 years in marriage and had two children of their own. Gisele had always been Tom’s biggest fan throughout his over 20-year NFL career, but after Tom changed his decision to retire in March 2022, tensions arose between them.
The couple announced their divorce in October 2022. Since then, Tom has decided to permanently retire. The former spouses have dedicated themselves to co-parenting their children and have openly talked about life after the breakup. Recently, Gisele spoke about how «difficult» it was after the split in an interview with People in September 2023. Here is the romantic timeline of this iconic couple.
After being introduced by a mutual friend, Gisele agreed to meet Tom for a drink. For the Brazilian beauty, it was love at first sight. Although Tom was still in a relationship with Bridget, their two-year romance was coming to an end. «I knew right away — from the first time I saw him», - she said in an interview with Vanity Fair in 2009. «We met through a friend. From the moment I saw him, he smiled, and I thought, 'That's the most beautiful, charismatic smile I’ve ever seen!'»
«We sat and talked for three hours. I needed to go back home for Christmas, but I didn’t want to leave», - she added. «You know that feeling when you can’t get enough? From the first day we met, we never spent a day without talking to each other». Later, she told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show in 2018: «You know, when I saw those kind eyes, I literally fell in love right away. I thought, 'What?' He was so — you know, how cute he was». The couple started dating and officially announced their relationship a month later.
Two months into their romance, the couple faced a serious obstacle. Bridget announced that she was pregnant with Tom’s child, even though they had already broken up, and he had started dating Gisele. It was a difficult decision for the model to stay with Tom or break up with him and avoid drama. «Two months into our relationship, Tom told me that his ex-girlfriend was pregnant. The next day, the news spread everywhere, and I felt like my world had turned upside down», - she wrote in her 2018 memoir «Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life».
«It was a tough decision because here I am, you know, thinking that I’m dating this guy, we met, started dating, and everything was great, and then this happened», - Gisele told Charlie Rose on CBS This Morning in 2015. «Then I felt like I didn’t know what to do. 'Is this one of those moments when I just want to run away?' She didn’t run away, and Tom and Gisele remained a strong couple.
Bridget gave birth to Tom’s son John Edward Thomas Moynahan on August 22, 2007. Instead of creating a rift between Tom and Gisele, it made her feel even closer to her man. She deeply loved Tom’s little boy, calling him in many interviews her «bonus child». «He made my heart expand in a way I didn’t know», - Gisele wrote in her memoir about the maternal feelings she had towards the boy. «Jack», - as he is called, is now a teenager and looks just like his handsome father.
Two years into their relationship, Tom proposed to Gisele. But he used some tricks to make it a surprise. Gisele finally explained to the world how it all happened during a «73 Questions» video she did for Vogue in June 2018. «When he proposed to me, he came up with this whole story about how my apartment was in…
