The paths of the model Gisele Bündchen and the former American football player Tom Brady separated last October in a friendly way and without apparent reproaches. But six months later, their names appear together in the press again after the confessions of the Brazilian model about the reasons that led them to end her marriage.
During an interview for the American edition of Vanity Fair, Bündchen claims to be in mourning for “the death of her dream.” A dream that consisted of forming an unbreakable family with the popular quarterback and his three children, Benjamin Rein (14), Vivian Lake (11) and John Edward Thomas (16), the latter the result of Brady’s previous marriage to Bridget Moynahan. .
“It’s hard because you imagine that your life is going to be a certain way and you do everything you can to achieve it,” explains the model, adding: “You give everything you have to achieve that dream, one hundred percent of yourself And it’s heartbreaking when it doesn’t end as you expected, despite the fact that you’ve worked hard to get it, but you can only do your part, ”a forceful sentence throwing a dart at Brady. In the same interview, Bündchen explained that during her marriage she felt locked up, unable to carry out her goals or that “dream” to which she refers so much. “When you love someone, you don’t put them in jail and tell them, ‘This is the life you have to live.’ You free him to be who he is, and if you want to fly in the same direction, it’s incredible, ”criticizes the 42-year-old model.
Freed from that commitment, Bündchen, who feels like a “wounded bird”, now wants to take flight: “I don’t want to be limited. I want to spread my wings and fly, ”she confesses. Despite her explicit statements about her breakup, the model assures that she currently maintains a good relationship with her and her ex-husband: “We are a team,” she says. The model is a benchmark in the fashion industry and despite the fact that her days on the catwalk are over, she works tirelessly for major fashion campaigns or as a star guest at luxury events and her free time is dedicated to nature, yoga and , of course, to their children.
Despite the stir that Gisele Bündchen’s interview has caused, Tom Brady has not spoken for the moment.
However, the NFL star has shared a few hours after Bündchen’s statements were made public a phrase by Ralph Waldo that for many Internet users seeks to respond to the model: “What is success? Laugh a lot and often. Earning the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children… Knowing that even a life has breathed better because you have lived. This is making it!” Brady posted.
