Legendary American actor Mark Wahlberg, who is popularly known by his screen name Marky Mark, has huge respect for his dear friend Tom Brady and his wife Gisele Bündchen.
Even while the reporters tried to lure him and poked him to comment on the beauty of the Supermodel, Wahlberg remained a gentleman and didn’t slip into the media trap. It happened a few years ago when he was coming off the sets of Entourage. Reporters asked him whether Bündchen came over while Tom Brady was working with the actor.
