250 Days After Tom Brady Divorce, World’s Second Richest Supermodel Gisele Bündchen Looks to Take On $500,000,000 Fashion Queen

Ex-NFL couple Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen are now on two different walks of life. Ever since their divorce in October, Tom Brady has retired from professional football and focusing on building his post-retirement life. On the other hand, the Brazilian supermodel is continuing to build her fashion portfolio, making a strong comeback in the industry after a hiatus to take care of her family.

At the moment, Gisele Bündchen ranks second in terms of the richest models of all time. But with her gradual resurgence in the modeling industry, the Brazilian bombshell might be able to take on the $500 million fashion queen, who currently sits at the top of the list.

Gisele Bündchen comes second to former fashion model in terms of wealth

Bündchen’s introduction to the world of glitz and glamour was one that happened by chance. When she was 14 years old, she and her sisters were in Sau Paolo after completing their modeling course. And while strolling around the mall, a man named Zeca from Elite Model Management approached her and scouted her for the fashion industry. And since then, over the years, she has become one of the most well-recognized faces in modeling. 

At the age of 42, Bündchen has racked up a net worth of around $400 million. A report by Marie Claire places her as the second richest model of all time. But from 2002 to 2017, Forbes named her the annual world’s highest-paid model, before Kendall Jenner took the spot from her. Sitting at the top of the list of the richest models of all time, Kathy Ireland wears the crown with a net worth of $500 million. Ireland was the face of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue for 13 consecutive years. She is also an author like Bündchen, teaming up with no.1 New York Times best-selling author Rachel Van Dyken for her first novel called ‘Fashion Jungle.’

While Kathy Ireland sits at the top of the list, could Gisele Bündchen go on to dethrone her in the coming days?

Will Bündchen claim the top spot from Ireland as the richest model of all time?

Kathy Ireland has retired from the world of fashion. But Bündchen still continues to be a sensation with her comeback to the industry at the age of 42. Ever since her divorce from Tom Brady, she has gone on to be the face of different campaigns for various luxury brands. Her first comeback gig was with Louis Vuitton, where she stunned her fans by going topless to endorse a wide range of luxurious handbags. Most recently, she teamed up with Jimmy Choo for their 2023 summer campaign. Bündchen made headlines after endorsing their new range called the Avenue Quad.
