After hearing the announcement of Brady’s divorce from Gisele Bündchen, fans took a while to gather their bearings. The former couple continues to be talked about despite the split. But recently, a potential romantic interest came into the picture. After Bündchen’s rumored reason for leaving the QB pointed towards being unhappy because he went back to playing in the league, a model sporting Brady’s jersey had fans erupting with joy.
