“They Could Barely Speak to Each Other”: Tom Brady Forced Gisele Bündchen to Take a Drastic Measure to Save Their Marriage After TB12 Got Caught Up in a Major Controversy

The future Hall of Famer Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen’s marriage has been in the headlines a lot these days. The eleven days’ absence (which is the most talked about news) from the training camp raised many eyebrows. One of the popular speculation to emerge out of the leave was that the NFL power couple is going through a huge fight. It is not the first time they are facing tumult in their marriage. Previously, the couple went through a rocky phase when TB12 wrapped up in a serious wrangle.

In the 2014 AFC Championship Game, the then-leading quarterback of the New England Patriots was tangled in the Deflategate Scandal. According to the controversy, Tom Brady ordered the inflation of the football as he preferred the softer grip.

The event happened when the Pats played against the Indianapolis Colts. The NFL investigated the allegations. And spent $22 million in two years to litigate and discipline Brady. As punishment, he faced a four-game suspension, and the team had to pay $1 million as a penalty.

The scandal was a tough time for the Brady household. The pressure of the seven-time Super Bowl-winning QB hit the family hard. Gisele Bündchen took off often during the painful period of their relationship with her sister. A source said, “Things got so bad after Deflategate that they could barely speak to each other.”

Because the couple faced grave issues in their marriage, the fashion model recommended something Brady was not comfortable with. “Tom got irritable under the stress, and she started blaming him for all their unhappiness, much of which was there before the scandal. Counseling was her ultimatum,” reported a source. Brady’s behavior forced her to make this decision.

It looked like the therapy worked for them. Because after the overturning of the game suspension, his spirits rose. The star QB helped the Pats win a ferocious 10-0 start to the 2015 season. This ended in a new division title for the New England Patriots.

And things with his fashion icon wife went back to normal. Reporters spotted the couple in the Bronx area where they attended late night screening of a movie.
