The couple had dated for about two years before they came together in matrimony.
Putting an end to speculations the two stars have openly announced the end of their 13-year-old marriage. The two had sailed together through tumultuous times, but now it seems like their marriage is not working out. From growing apart to dedicated long careers, there are many reasons to why the power couple has separated ways. Here’s more.

The star NFL player took to Instagram to announce the decision they had taken about their marriage over the past few days. “We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together,” Brady said. “We arrived at this decision to end our marriage after much consideration. Doing so is, of course, painful and difficult, like it is for many people who go through the same thing every day around the world. However, we wish only the best for each other as we pursue whatever new chapters in our lives are yet to be written.”
The divorce was filed on 28 October by Bündchen in Glades County, Fla. The couple has two children together; a son, Benjamin, and a daughter, Vivian. Brady also has a son, Jack, 15, from a previous relationship with the actress Bridget Moynahan. The duo did make parental plans and agreements before their divorce proceedings. Gisele and Brady also completed four-hour parent education and family stabilization courses as they had minor kids.

“We Have Grown Apart”: Gisele Said In Her Instagram Post
Gisele Bündchen also announced the divorce decision through her Instagram account. The supermodel cleared that she and Brady would be co-parenting their three children with great love, care, and attention. “The decision to end a marriage is never easy but we have grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always,” Gisele shared. Bündchen had always wanted her ex-husband to retire and spend more time with his family. He had been in the professional field for more than 20 years. Though the footballer had retired earlier, he reversed his decision later on for the Super Bowl season of 2020.
