Gisele Bündchen added more heartbreak to a year that’s been nothing short of a roller coaster of ups and down- with emphasis on the downs. The former Victoria’s Secret Angel joined fans across the world to mourn the loss of two icons.

Within the span of a few hours, the world witnessed the death of Brazilian soccer legend Pelé and English fashion designer Vivienne Westwood. After a tough couple of months that included a very public split from NFL star Tom Brady, the loss of these two individuals comes as a very saddening end to the year. The loss hits harder as Bündchen has had a relationship with these legends.
