Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen Relations Worsen After Parenting Newsletter

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen's marriage deteriorated following Brady's short-lived retirement and subsequent return to football, which conflicted with Bündchen's expectations for family focus, leading to their 2022 divorce. Post-divorce, their relationship has soured further, with communication now limited strictly to co-parenting logistics involving their two children, Benjamin and Vivian. Brady's recent newsletter discussing fatherhood, where he emphasized that parenting extends beyond traditional roles like bedtime stories, was perceived by Bündchen as a personal critique, intensifying tensions between them. Bündchen, who recently had a third child with boyfriend Joaquim Valente, is focused on her new life and emotional peace, while Brady's reflections on fatherhood have been seen as dismissive of her sacrifices. Additionally, actress Bridget Moynahan, Brady's former partner prior to Bündchen, sparked renewed public interest with quotes about accepting the end of relationships, indirectly referencing Brady's past. Despite the personal conflicts, Bündchen avoids public retaliation, instead sharing positive moments from her new chapter.
