For the longest time, Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen’s relationship was the definition of a fairytale romance. Individually accomplished and renowned in their respective fields, their story was picture-perfect. While the saying, ‘all good things come to an end,’ is an overused cliché, it, unfortunately, applies to the former couple’s marriage. However, in her memoir, Bündchen revealed several insights into her personal life with Brady. Do you know how she vented her anger towards the GOAT?
Times before the situation headed south, Brady and Bündchen built a beautiful life together. But it wasn’t all hearts and flowers. In her memoir, ‘Lessons: My path to a Meaningful Life,’ Bündchen recalled an instance that delved into the rocky parts of her relationship with Brady. Here’s a look at what happened.

Over the years, Gisele Bündchen began incorporating more holistic practices. Mediation, as her memoir emphasized, has been a huge part of her life. While the incident that led the model to take up yoga is not pleasant, it enabled her to incorporate slower, more peaceful practices to combat the panic attacks she faced. Coming to her romantic life, the model used similar techniques to avoid blowing up at Brady when she was angry.
While Bündchen’s memoir revealed that they didn’t argue much, she wrote about one instance where she penned a 3-page letter to blow off steam. The former Victoria’s Secret Angel revealed that TB12 had sent her an email that hurt her feelings. At the time he was in Boston and she was in Costa Rica. Instead of immediately retaliating with a comeback, Bündchen took her time and penned down all her thoughts in a 3-page letter.

Every ounce of anger she felt was written down. After her cathartic release, she burnt the letter and shortly after, emailed Brady. Bündchen wrote, “The next morning I sent Tom a brief email telling him I was only willing to be in a relationship that was based on love and respect, and that I looked forward to us talking whenever he was ready to speak to me in a loving and respectful way. A day later, we did just that.” The model’s methods to quell her anger and approach the situation in a respectful way are truly admirable.

Speculation hinted that their marriage ended due to Bündchen’s displeasure with Brady’s decision to come back from retirement. But this year, the QB retired “for good.” Fans will hope that the removal of the pressure of being a high-performing athlete at 45 will give TB12 the rest he deserves after his long and successful career.
