Gisele Bündchen and Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady finalized their divorce last month. This came after months of speculation by the fans and media. However, certain Gisele fans who went through her 2018 book saw this coming for a long time.

In her book, ‘Lessons: My Path To A Meaningful Life,’ Bündchen detailed various experiences with Tom Brady that predicted the 2022 divorce between the power couple. However, it was one of Gisele’s good habits that saved their marriage from ending four years ago.

The former Brazilian supermodel grew apart from her husband, Tom Brady. And there were multiple occasions when the couple fought. However, they always amicably settled things through conversation. Until one time, when Gisele was deeply hurt by Brady’s actions, and her father’s advice of hand-written letters, came to the rescue of the situation.

According to Gisele’s father, writing out letters by hand gives more clarity once you read it after. And this came in handy when Brady sent a rather hurtful email from Boston one time.

Gisele Bündchen has stated in various interviews that nothing came before football for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB, Tom Brady. However, troubles were brewing during Brady’s days in Boston. During his quarterbacking time for the Patriots, TB12 once sent an email to Bündchen that hurt the former supermodel. Brady spent six to seven months a year away from the family. That coupled with this hurtful email deeply saddened Gisele.

Gisele remembered what her father said. And instead of replying via email or text, Gisele wrote a three-page letter expressing all her resentment through her writing. “It’s much more helpful to me when I write my thoughts out in longhand,” Bündchen said and added that this process also “eliminates the danger of impulsively pressing Send and then not being able to take my email back.

Had that reply email reached Brady in Boston, things could have been vastly different for a lot of people, including TB12, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and Gisele Bündchen. However, the former Victoria’s Secret supermodel didn’t end up sending the letter. She followed her father’s advice, read the letter a few times the next day, and ultimately burned it. “I never sent the letter. I let a day go by. Then I read what I’d written a few more times. That night, I rolled up the letter and burned it.” She felt relief after that, having expressed her angst constructively.
