Tom Brady Is Reportedly Feeling 'Sorry for Himself' After Gisele Bündchen's Major Life Update
Tom Brady might be going through a bit of a midlife crisis after retiring from the NFL and settling his divorce from Gisele Bündchen. He doesn’t seem to know what to do next and his ex-wife’s major life milestone might have something to do with it.
“He’s not dating anyone and he’s feeling a little lonely and sorry for himself,” a source told In Touch Weekly. “Gisele, meanwhile, is enjoying a holiday in Costa Rica with [boyfriend] Joaquim [Valente] and she’s got the kids, but Tom has to work and he’s feeling left out.” Bündchen had made it clear when they were having problems that she wanted him to stick to his commitment to retire and spend time with their children, son Benjamin, 15, and daughter Vivian, 12, and his son, Jack, 17, from his former relationship with Bridget Moynahan.
The fashion icon told ELLE in September 2023 that her intentions were very clear with Brady. “I’ve done my part, which is [to] be there for [Tom],” she explained. “I moved to Boston, and I focused on creating a cocoon and a loving environment for my children to grow up in and to be there supporting him and his dreams,” Bündchen explained. “I have a huge list of things that I have to do, that I want to do. At 42, I feel more connected with my purpose.”
It’s almost as if Bündchen dared Brady to test her — and he did. He went back to football for another season, and she filed for divorce. It feels like the 47-year-old athlete hasn’t recovered from that decision. After the 44-year-old supermodel revealed her pregnancy to the public, Brady got all in his feelings on his Instagram account, posting a sunset snapshot with The Chicks’ cover version of Fleetwood Mac’s hit single, “Landslide.” He even got real emo by adding the text of the lyrics, “Oh mirror in the sky, what is love / Can the child inside my heart rise above / Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?”
His reaction to his ex-wife’s pregnancy is reportedly hurting his dating life, according to In Touch Weekly. “A lot of people think he’d have a better chance with the ladies if he stopped feeling sorry for himself and watching what Gisele’s doing all the time,” the insider claimed. It sounds like Brady has regrets from his marriage to Bündchen while she has moved on.
