According to sources close to Tom Brady, his marriage troubles with his wife Gisele Bundchen (pictured above during Game Two of the 2008 NBA Eastern Conference finals) have been going on for years.
People reports that an insider has told the publication that “the pair’s issues are 10 years old and adds that this has been going on forever this is nothing new to either of them.”
The report continues…
The insider also shares that in terms of the supermodel’s handling of her future she’s doing fine and getting her stuff in order.
The source continues that both of them are done fighting over the marriage and a divorce is happening now, so they could do their own thing and move on. However, at the same time the source adds that the pair of both smart people and number one in their field. They know together they are worth more.
For months now there have been reports that there is trouble between Bundchen and Brady. It all began soon after the football star returned to the NFL for another season after he had announced his retirement. According to multiple sources, the choice to go back to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers has led to a lot of tension between the longtime couple.
They have both now hired lawyers and are looking to negotiate the next phase of their relationship.
Tom Brady is not the one looking for a divorce, say insiders
“It’s pretty obvious that he’s hurting,” a source close to Brady told People. “He feels very hurt by her.”
Another source claims, “She is the one steering the divorce. She is playing offense and he is playing defense. He wants to protect himself, protect his interests, but he’s only starting to go the legal route in his defense from her. He doesn’t want this to be ugly, he doesn’t want to fight. If the divorce is happening — and it seems like it is — he wants it to go as smoothly as possible.”
The inside continued, “Think about it: Tom has had a very charmed life. Things always seem to go his way. He works hard, he’s a good guy, he hasn’t had a lot of things go wrong in his life. This is awful for him. You can tell that this really, really hurts.”
That’s what happens when your white witch wife feels slighted and decides to remove her protective wards, take away her spells to enhance athletic abilities, and halted access to potions that allow you to freeze time and stop the aging process.
At least that’s what one very believable theory claims is happening to TB12.
