Gisele Bündchen is getting candid about the recent end to her high-end marriage to football star Tom Brady.
The supermodel and high-profile celebrity has compared the separation to “death and a rebirth.”
In a new cover story with Vanity fair, Bündchen claims that the media has spun its own narrative on what really lead to the downfall of her marriage. Many tabloids including What’s Trending reported that the football star and supermodel split due to Brady choosing to return to football. Throughout their time together, many reported that the model was frustrated due to time apart with Brady’s football career – but that’s not the case.
That takes years to happen,” she told the publication. She also chimed in on the idea of leaving Brady due to this reason being “the craziest thing I’ve ever heard.”
“Listen, I have always cheered for him, and I would continue forever. If there’s one person I want to be the happiest in the world, it’s him, believe me,” she said. “I want him to achieve and to conquer. I want all his dreams to come true. That’s what I want, really, from the bottom of my heart.”
She also explained that the end of the marriage can’t be simply put into one explanation as well.
“What’s been said is one piece of a much bigger puzzle,” Bündchen said. “It’s not so black and white.”

“Sometimes you grow together; sometimes you grow apart,” she added. “When I was 26 years old and he was 29 years old, we met, we wanted a family, we wanted things together. As time goes by, we realize that we just wanted different things, and now we have a choice to make. That doesn’t mean you don’t love the person. It just means that in order for you to be authentic and truly live the life that you want to live, you have to have somebody who can meet you in the middle, right? It’s a dance. It’s a balance.”
She chimed in on mourning the “death” part of the relationship stating that this was an incredibly tough situation to be in.
“It’s tough because you imagine your life was going to be a certain way, and you did everything you could, you know?” she said. “I believed in fairy tales when I was a kid. I think it’s beautiful to believe in that. I mean, I’m so grateful I did.”
