Supermodel Gisele Bundchen has announced that she will be leaving the NFL and ending her marriage with Patriots quarterback Tom Brady after seven years of marriage. The couple are rumored to have been living apart, however reports have not surfaced as to why they split. I don’t feel like I can give 100 percent right now and my husband deserves someone who can, Bundchen said in an interview today with People Magazine. Her departure has shaken up the world of sports and fashion, causing many notable figures to react to the news on social media channels.
Roger Goodell
I don’t think it is any one particular issue, Goodell said. It’s probably a number of issues that have been involved in this. But I don’t know her well enough to tell you exactly what they are. Regardless, it is still tough for us because she has given so much to the league and the game. Tom Brady: Gisele has always done everything with such class and style, Brady told reporters. Her incredible ability to speak four languages fluently never ceases to amaze me.
Tom Brady
Gisele Bundchen, who is the wife of Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, announced this week that she will be leaving the National Football League. A Brazilian supermodel and businesswoman, Gisele has been with the NFL for over a decade, first being hired by Victoria’s Secret as a lingerie model. Brady had hinted about retirement in previous years and it seems as though he got his wish this year.
Julian Edelman
What!? Noooo Gisele don’t leave me! You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. – Julian Edelman, WR for the New England Patriots , said in a tweet What!? Noooo Gisele don’t leave me! You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. He followed up with I’ll have my first one-on-one date with you soon. I promise. But sadly his plea was ignored and she left him right after their chat.
Rob Gronkowski
As reported by Sports Illustrated, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski tweeted his disbelief about the news and said, WTF is wrong with these people? I just don’t understand? Gronkowski joined forces with teammate Julian Edelman to welcome Gisele back. Please stay he tweeted. We need you so much more than what we thought. That’s not even a question in my mind.
Bill Belichick
It’s unfortunate to see her retire from the game, she will be missed, but I know she has a deep love for soccer and am sure that we haven’t seen the last of her on a soccer field. I’m sorry to hear about Gisele’s retirement from football. She was an important part of our team and contributed in many ways to our success. I’ve always admired her work ethic, attitude and knowledge for the game so it is difficult for me that she is moving on.
Bill Belichick’s Daughter
Growing up as the daughter of one of the most powerful figures in the NFL has given Bill Belichick’s daughter plenty of experience to handle an uncertain world. Although it is unclear what she will do now that her mom, Gisele Bundchen, has announced she is leaving Tom Brady and the New England Patriots to pursue her career with vigor and passion on a global scale.
Matt Light
I’m going to be living in New York and I’ll fly in whenever I can, Gisele said of her plans for the coming season. You know, the family is my first priority, but hopefully we’ll still get a chance to do some fun things together. I want them to have as normal a life as possible. But they’re also not gonna miss out on opportunities because of me. They’re very strong-minded kids, she explained.
And they need time with their friends too and time with each other without me.
