In one year, the life of American player Tom Brady changed too much. He divorced supermodel Gisele Bundchen to pursue a career, but after the divorce, he gave up the rest of his career.

American football player Tom Brady (45 years old) shocked when he announced his retirement from professional football. Information was just released by him this week, Brady confirmed he will never participate in professional competition again.

In his statement, the famous Tampa Bay Buccaneers player said: “I’ll get straight to the point, which is that I’m retiring forever. I know I’ve made you guys talk a lot when I announced my retirement before. Professional athletes will usually only make an emotional retirement announcement, which I announced last year.

I thank you so much for cheering me on, my family, my friends, my teammates, my opponents. Thank you for letting me live my dream. I don’t feel regret or want to change anything.”

The first retirement announcement was made by Tom Brady exactly a year ago, on February 1, 2022. At that time, the reason given by Tom Brady was that “it’s time to focus your time and energy on things that require dedication”. What Tom Brady was talking about at the time was his marriage to his wife at the time – supermodel Gisele Bundchen (now 42 years old).

However, just a month after announcing his retirement, Brady withdrew his statement and returned to playing, because he felt that he “belongs to the field and cannot sit in the stands”. Brady’s withdrawal of the decision to retire became “the last straw” in his troubled marriage with supermodel Bundchen.

Previously, Bundchen was said to have issued an “ultimatum” to Brady, asking him to stop pursuing a competitive career as he got older. Bundchen wants Brady to spend time with his family and 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, because in the past, Bundchen has always been responsible for taking care of his family and 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, while Brady is only focused on his career.

In fact, supermodel Gisele Bundchen also has a very successful career and has built her own fortune of about $ 400 million. Tom Brady’s net worth is about $250 million. The fact that Bundchen freezes her career to spend time with her family, but Brady is so absorbed in pursuing her career, she feels that the two have lost their common voice and gradually go in two different directions.

Shortly after Brady withdrew his retirement statement last year, Brady and Bundchen announced their separation and quickly completed the divorce proceedings. Brady and Bundchen got married in February 2009, they have two 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren together, Benjamin (13 years old) and Vivian (10 years old).

So, after divorcing his wife to pursue a career in competition, now Tom Brady has announced his retirement from playing again. Contrary to Brady, after divorcing her husband, supermodel Gisele Bundchen showed that she was having a new source of inspiration, she enthusiastically practiced sports, traveled, took care of her new living space and especially, she was more active in modeling.
