Us Mag: Tom Brady is ‘very nasty & irritable’, Gisele contacted a divorce lawyer

wenn3872338

Last week, People Magazine had a very interesting “we’re hedging our bets” story about Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady and the state of their marriage. The gist, overall, was that Gisele and Tom are fine, but that this summer has been rough on them and Tom has been “nasty and cold” to Gisele and everyone else while he dealt with Deflategate drama. Now Us Weekly is taking a harsher tone about the state of their marriage:

Tom Brady’s six-year marriage to Gisele Bundchen is in dangerous territory. A source close to the world’s highest-paid model, 35, and the $13 million-plus-a-year NFL pro, 38, reveals in the latest issue of Us Weekly they’ve been having intense fights since he was hit with a four-game suspension in May. (Recap: A report concluded that the New England Patriots quarterback was “at least generally aware” of the team’s decision to deflate footballs to help nab a January playoff victory.)

“Tom’s become very nasty and irritable and started acting out on her,” says the source of the pair, who didn’t celebrate their summer birthdays together. Their spats have become so heated that Bundchen recently consulted with a divorce lawyer, says a Brady insider. “Tom thinks it’s only a threat,” says the insider. “But this is definitely a rough patch.”

The parents to Benjamin, 5, and Vivian, 2, aren’t ready to admit defeat just yet. The Brady insider notes that they’re still sharing their Boston apartment and have made it a point to spend time together one-on-one. The Brazilian beauty also traveled to New York to be with Brady (who shares son John, 8, with ex Bridget Moynahan) for an Aug. 31 Deflategate hearing.

Still, says the first source, “Things are very tense right now. This could be the end of them.”

But whatever the status of their marriage, it appears the supermodel is standing by her husband during his Deflategate woes. Bundchen was spotted with Brady in New York on Monday, Aug. 31, after his latest hearing in the scandal.

[From Us Weekly]

It wouldn’t surprise me if Gisele did consult with a divorce lawyer. It wouldn’t surprise me if she just did as a threat, or to assess all of her options in a general way. And it would not surprise me at all if Gisele does not want to divorce Tom in general because that would be bad for her image and her ego. I mean, if she got divorced, what would that make her? Just some supermodel divorcee? She’s always thought too highly of herself to call it quits.

    Not sure they would divorce, but I can believe one or both cannot deal well with life’s bumps in the road, especially when said bumps are publicly known.

    • Josephine says:

      I agree with this – folks with massive egos must be hard to live with. And if the plastic surgery story about her is true, it may be indicative that she’s feeling less than secure these days, and maybe at loose end with the end of her runway career. It’s gotta be heard to maintain that facade that they are the perfect couple living the perfect life.

      • Christin says:

        Agree. I’m glad you mentioned the facade, because that is what I was alluding to. People who go to great lengths to portray perfection are often in meltdown mode when imperfections come to light.

        This really is a perfect storm, plus the possibility one or both may have a mid-life crisis (if they aren’t already).

    • Ronda says:

      also both work in professions where the age is a very limiting factor. they both should prepare well ahead, one person suddenly not being needed in their job can be terrible for a relationship i dont want to know how it is when its both and both have huge egos. at least they dont need to worry about money.
      i guess it will hit him harder, constantly being cheered on by fans, the adrenaline rush, you cant compare that to modeling. im sure its easier getting over that than being a celebrated athlete.im also sure she gets more harsh criticism, athletes usually get sugar blown up their arse their whole life until they retire.

      • WinnieCoopersMom says:

        I think her career will outlast his, but the post-career contracts will keep them afloat. Often, endorsement and consulting deals pay way better than their day jobs. All he would have to do is consult/become an analyst for ESPN and a couple endorsement deals and he would be set. And then she could start her own fashion line and be the face of some high-end brand(s) and she would be good. I wouldnt be too worried about their finances, whether they divorce or not. However, it would hurt her image and career way worse than his, IMO.

      • Ronda says:

        i wasnt talking about the money 🙂 i mentioned the adrenaline for example. i can imagine it must be hard to adept to more home life and standing in a suit next to the playing field when you yourself were an athlete. that has to be harder than to stop wtih modeling and as you say she will be able to do it longer than he will.

      • teacakes says:

        She’s already got her own flip-flop line, I believe? And it makes her good money too.

        And to be absolutely honest, a divorce wouldn’t do any damage to her career, any more than splitting from Jefferson Hack did to Kate Moss’s. Divorces are par for the course in high fashion and Tom Brady isn’t one of the fashion crowd/linked to them.

      • notasugarhere says:

        She also has a lingerie line based in Brazil, Gisele Bündchen Intimates.

    • Luca76 says:

      Yup this

    • Cindy says:

      That is my thinking too. These two are kind of fascinating to me in that way…..when you are this perfect your entire life, what happens when there is an actual problem? You are middle- aged and dealing with your first real problem, the first sign that your life is not perfect. What is *that* like?

    • laura in LA says:

      Just generally speaking as far as relationships go…

      While I can imagine they’ve gone through a rough patch, threatening divorce certainly doesn’t seem to be good for the health and longevity of a marriage.

      But what would I know about it?

      If I were married before the tough times and emotional mess I’ve experienced the past few years, I’d probably be divorced by now, too. 🙁

      • Christin says:

        I don’t know much about it, either, really. I was in my 30s when I married and nearly ended up separated 7 years later (though I thankfully did step back and realized a lot of the problem was ME — distracted by other issues with work, sick parents, etc.).

        With this couple, the way they (or she) portrays their life being so idyllic is what gives me pause. They may or may not be able to get past these bumps. Some of the couples who act as if they have the cleanest, most lovely home (marriage/family) may have huge foundation cracks that eventually show up.

        @Laura, I hope things are going better for you. I truly believe hard times make us stronger. That’s what I’ve been telling myself, anyway. 😉

      • Jib says:

        Getting a divorce lawyer, even speaking to one, is serious. I just celebrated my 28th anniversary, and no matter how angry I’ve gotten at my husband and even told him I’m leaving, I have never called a lawyer. That seems to be a pretty serious step.

        Although I can see her doing it and I can see her divorcing him if he doesn’t spend his time worshipping her. I think she has a HUGE ego, as does he, but if he’s being nasty, I can’t see her taking that from him at all. Nor should she. No woman should be abused.

  2. perplexed says:

    I think she genuinely loves him — so for that reason I don’t think she’d quit the marriage… well, not right now anyway.

    She was willing to be with him after his ex-girlfriend got pregnant. If that didn’t break the relationship in the early stages, I don’t see why Deflategate would.

    • supposedtobeworking says:

      I don’t think that was love, though. I think that was opportunity.

    • Ysohawt1 says:

      Was it ever explained why Jen Garner, Ben Afflecks nanny was wearing Tom Brady’s Super Bowl ring on the private jet to Las Vegas? I always found that part of the story a bit odd and blurred over by the press.

      How did Tom Brady happen to give Ben Afflecks Nanny his ring?

      I have never really like Gisellle, as a personality, she just seems so cold , just never liked her even with all her contracts and years of modelling and I don’t find her face very attractive at all, but yes her body is model amazing, Legs for days.

      Bet he cheated with Ben Afflecks nanny!

      • TrustMOnThis says:

        Yes. This. I’ve been thinking Vegas 3-way.

      • taxi says:

        Brady had all 4 of his Super Bowl rings with him to display at a sports event, which had nothing do with Ben & the nanny.

      • Ysohawt1 says:

        But why did he let the Nanny wear one?

      • pk says:

        I think the explanation they gave that everyone on the plane was trying on the rings is believable.
        If he were a hockey player and brought the Stanley Cup everyone would take a picture with it. Same thing.

  3. funcakes says:

    You mean the greatest love story that ever was might be over?
    (Falling back on my fainting couch while fanning myself with my hands.)

    • Crumpet says:

      *hands funcakes a fan*

      I think they genuinely love each other, but are shallow people. Meaning I don’t know that they have the depth of character to weather life’s bumps in the road and not take it out on each other. I guess we shall see.

    • Tilly says:

      Hahahhaha you’re funny 🙂

  4. KinChicago says:

    Sometimes it is good to line up your options, know what the next steps are should you be facing either direction.
    Remember, a marriage is between two people… And Brady was partying and passing his Super Bowl rings with Bro-Affleck and his bimbo nanny for social media selfies. If a move that stupid is on camera, imagine what must be off-camera?
    Just saying, know your options.

    • perplexed says:

      Good point!

    • Boston Green Eyes says:

      TB12 was supposedly picking up the ladies while still involved with Bridgette Moynahan. He probably prefers the company of really basic, plain girls when not with his actress/model partners.

      • laura in LA says:

        Boston Green Eyes, so you mean there’s a chance for someone like me? (Kidding!)

        Seriously, though, and just out of curiosity, what about their massive new Brookline mansion? The article only mentions their Boston apartment…

    • Ysohawt1 says:

      Bet he cheated with BA Nanny.
      I always found it fishy Brady let her wear his SuperBowl Ring.

      While the press was outing Ben for the Nanny…I always had a feeling Tom Brady was knee deep in Nannyville but it hasn’t emerged yet. Just my opinion!

    • noke says:

      He WASN’T partying. HE WAS GOING TO A CHARITY EVENT.

      • Ysohawt1 says:

        NannyGate part 2. More to come.

        Daily Mail now has the news of trouble in marriage and they are like a dog with a bone.

      • What says:

        Hi, Noteven: But that’s the SAME story. Are you crazy? You don’t want to see the truth. You hate her. Why? Those comments and (these comments)… It’s offensive.

  5. teatimeiscoming says:

    How gauche, a supermodel divorcee.

  6. Tara says:

    This is the year of crappy show biz relationships.

  7. MG says:

    I think the trouble probably started when the picture of the nanny surfaced wearing his rings! Not this whole deflate gate crap. Tbh, I’d be pissed and I’d have a million questions for him!

    • angie says:

      When I saw that picture I wondered why he was carrying all his rings around with him in the first place. That sounds kind of nutty–does he bring them everywhere? Maybe he needs them when he yells “don’t you know who I am?” at a maître d’ or a club bouncer.

      • Robin says:

        Angie, I think the ring photo was taken on the way to Vegas. Brady was appearing at some kind of charity event, which may be why he had the rings with him. Not sure why skanky nanny got to wear them though.

    • Ysohawt1 says:

      Exactly, him letting the Nanny wear Super Bowl ring was a move…IMO.

  8. Hudson Girl says:

    Around the Esplanade (Boston Waterfront park) they are not just together but, ridiculously affectionate with each other and their kids.
    So no, US Weekly.

    • HannahBanana says:

      .

    • WinnieCoopersMom says:

      Kind of like the “super happy” couples who are kissy on the red carpet and publicly renew their vows every year? Yeah. Easy to pretend perfection when people are watching. This will be Heidi and Seal 2.0

      • Audrey says:

        This is when they’re just out and about with their kids, not posing for paps.

      • Tilly says:

        Heidi and Seal are so strange though … even now when they catch up, they kiss on the lips and hug … they must the nicest two divorcees ever!

    • Bianca says:

      Did you see them personally or in a pap photos?

    • Kitten says:

      Yeah it’s US weekly and The Inquisitor and the same rags reporting this. If it was People or even Boston.com I might believe but come on now.

      • Ysohawt1 says:

        PEOPLE Mag. Sucks IMO it Is an Arm of Celebrities PR TEams I don’t believe anything People writes , haven’t bought that magazine since just after Princess Diana died.
        Since 2000 People Magazine has been terrible,just all movie star PR people getting their articles out. IMO

  9. Jegede says:

    Damn! And this is from US Weekly??

  10. Esteph says:

    It won’t happen, and you’re right Kaiser. It seems like she’d do something like that to keep him in check. Plus, IMO he would regret not having a supermodel for a wife because I honestly think he’s so into that image he wouldn’t risk it.

    • Bethie says:

      Meh. Tom could pretty much collect any supermodel he wanted. A lot of bros’ opinion of him would just rise further if he showed up to a club with a shiny, new 22 year old on his arm.

      • Nancy says:

        Right. As long as he has the cash he can pick up the trash. Very George Clooneyish. Except I like George.

      • Franca says:

        Gisele can also pick up any man. It’s not like they don’t habe options. But it would ruin their image.

      • WinnieCoopersMom says:

        Franca, I agree. They could both get another hot partner in 2 seconds..but I think her image would suffer more than his if they divorce. She is going to hang on to this as long as she can. He could go on with the typical NFL career with any interchangeable hot piece on his arm. She would forever be known as the Former Mrs Tom Brady….UNLESS she upgraded to some legit A lister who made Tom look like Average Tom.

      • teacakes says:

        @WinnieCoopersMom – no offence to his fans, but no one really knows who Tom Brady is, outside of the US. Way more people know of Gisele, even before they got together.

        If they did divorce, all she’d have to do is move across the Atlantic and no one would care whose ex-wife she was. Euro-rich people love their supermodels.

      • Kitten says:

        “but no one really knows who Tom Brady is, outside of the US. Way more people know of Gisele, even before they got together.”

        This completely. We forget that nobody besides us GAF about American football.

  11. Franca says:

    I doubt Mr and Mrs Gisele will get a divorce.

    He seems so so very bland. And not that smart? I’ve never seen the guy speak, so I might be wrong. At least Gisele seems to have a personality.

    • Don't kill me I'm French says:

      Did you read his emails? http://deadspin.com/highlights-of-tom-bradys-personal-emails-revealed-in-n-1722160002
      At least he is a very decent father and ex

    • Josephine says:

      I think he’s considered very bright – a lot of quarterbacks are, and he has a great reputation for being smart and savvy on the field. Plus, he actually graduated and has a good rep at Michigan when he was there.

      • Franca says:

        As I said, I’ve never heard him speak. I only know him as Gisele’s husband because I’m not American. He just has that frat guy look about him.

      • teacakes says:

        glad to know the impression of him as not being very intelligent, is wrong. Like many non-Americans we don’t really know much about Brady other than Gisele married him and he’s a sports star (he seemed a pleasant enough type though, and the CB commenters from Boston in their previous articles always say he’s nice).

      • Kitten says:

        True, Josephine.
        It’s not like you can tell much just going by the post-game press conferences. He’s soft spoken and even-keeled (off the field, on the field he’s…fiery and whiny lol) so I could see how he could appear dumb or dull to some.

        But most QBs are bright and TB came across as pretty smart and thoughtful during his 60 Minutes interview IMO. He’s also pretty political–he identifies as Independent but he leans more towards the conservative side.

  12. ZombieRick says:

    Omg, as if she calls a divorce lawyer cause her husband is acting like a brat because he got busted cheating. Most stupid story ever.

  13. boredblond says:

    I always heard she was the irritable one..I guess her people have better tab connections…spin, spin, spin…

    • Don't kill me I'm French says:

      She is the one with a personality in their couple

    • Jegede says:

      Yeah the spin is off.

      Tom Brady comes across as a man child to me. Sweet but meh.

      There was a reason TMZ called him Gisele’s errand boy.

      And going by those emails on Gisele having the final word on the grey cover, (no-room-for-debate), I find it hard to believe he challenges her on anything, or acts up on her.

      I could be wrong though.

    • LeAnn Stinks says:

      Yes, she always seemed to be even more insufferable than he, I find her so smug and hypocritical. Never liked her, never will, but that’s okay, no one loves Giselle, more than herself. One of the most over rated “super” models, with one the the biggest pie holes, ever.

      Tom appears to be so whipped….thanks errand boy.

      • briargal says:

        Agree with your post–I think she is the one wearing the pants in the family. Poor Tommy–deflated balls in the game and Giselle scrunching his balls in marriage. Ouch!

      • Ysohawt1 says:

        I never like Gisellle she seems cold. I never got the hype with her. Her face is nothing special IMO…. But Yes her body is lovely.

    • justagirl says:

      Funny thing is, when the guy is a smug jerk, what somehow happens is the wife comes across as the difficult one with ‘control issues’, eg. Jennifer Garner, Gwyneth, and yes Gisele.

      When it’s a difficult relationship with a guy who has a Jekyll/Hyde personality….most women don’t realize that the balancing act is sucking their soul & humor right out of them. The light-hearted spark they had is gone from the cr*p they put up with…and they still believe his ‘nice’ image and dismiss his ‘jerk’ side.

      Also, smug jerks never like to be called out on anything; so I can believe that he’s really difficult to live with now.

      • LeAnn Stinks says:

        Justagirl,

        Unfortunately, all those women you named, in my opinion, were not nice LONG before they got married to “difficult” men.

        Paltrow has had a rep for being a snobby, condescending creep for years LONG before her marriage to Martin. She supposedly cheated on many of the men she was involved with, and Winona Ryder said that her BFF at the time, Paltrow, stole her “Shakespeare In Love ” script from her home, so that she could audition for the part offered to Ryder.

        Garner was also known to be a cheater and a social climber. She reportedly cheated on her husband Scott Foley with Michael Vartan and then she dumped Vartan for Affleck. She is far from the sweet homebody that she tries to present to the public.

        Finally, Bunchen has also not had the greatest rep long before Brady. I also cannot stand her self righteous b.s. that she spews. Not to mention besides being smug and arrogant, she’s a major hypocrite. She denounced plastic surgery and claimed to be all “natural.” Oh please…

  14. vauvert says:

    Unless she already lined up husband #2, I doubt they’ll divorce.

    • WinnieCoopersMom says:

      THIS. She would never leave unless she had a legit A Lister, who would make great insta-selfies, waiting in the wings for her. She will stick with him unless she can upgrade.

      • lobbit says:

        Disagree. She had no problem leaving Leo DiCaprio.

      • Snappyfish says:

        I think she will always pine for Leo

      • teacakes says:

        @Snappyfish – Gisele, ‘always pine’ for Leo?

        I know CB dislikes her but come on. We can come up with better fanfiction than that.

      • Snappyfish says:

        Yes pines. She left because he wouldn’t marry her. However there is a great story of the time she was in Miami (with Brady before marriage) in a cafe with him & friends. Leo breaks up with Bar, calls Gisele. She hangs up, leaves cafe, hails cab to airport & went directly to LA & Leo. She stayed a week & when she realized he wasn’t going to change his non- marriage ways she returned to Brady. She has remained extremely close with Leo’s mother & has never said anything but glowing comments about him.

        So yes, he is the one that got away & my opinion is if he would marry her she would jump. Oh & like him or not (I think he’s a good actor but that’s it) he is A List.

      • Ysohawt1 says:

        Yes, She wanted marriage with Leo in the worse way. She finally only left because he didn’t want to marry her.

    • vauvert says:

      lobbit, that was very different. She was younger, she wanted a family and Leo – well, we all know what Leo wants, zero commitment and a fresh model every year. Her current situation is different, there are lots of younger girls out there coming up in the modelling world from which she “retired”, and she also has children to think of. She will leave, if she can get a new guy that seems at least equal if not better. But just to be divorced, and shuffle the kids and see Tom join the Affleck crowd of bros? Doubt it. It would not look good for her at all. For him, there will always be a hundred wanna be models/starlets in the wings ready to replace her. I know she is better known than him outside the US, but as long as she lives here, she would be Tom’s ex – unless she gets a better deal.

      • Kitten says:

        You articulated differently that I would have..lol..but I agree with most of what you say here.

        I’m not sure that she has any intention of leaving though, even if the trade-up would be a lucrative one.

  15. Boston Green Eyes says:

    Truth be told, many people consult a divorce attorney some time in their marriage, doesn’t mean they are destined to part ways. A co-worker said that she had consulted a divorce attorney many years ago when she was going through a rough patch with her husband – who she’s been married to for over 30 years. She said that the attorney was so vile that the whole episode put her off divorcing forever more!

    • teacakes says:

      yeah, I remember the Obamas talking about going through a rough patch in their marriage some years before the Presidency too, and some tabloid said the FLOTUS had drawn up divorce papers.

      So yeah, it’s not a reliable indicator of whether a couple is divorcing for real.

  16. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    I’ve said this before, but I hate to see people give up on a marriage after 5-7 years. Those are the tough ones, even in a good marriage, and especially now with the stress they’re under. I hope they give it more time, because somewhere around year 6 or 7, reality sets in and the charming differences between you temporarily become like nails on a chalk board. If you can work through it, I think you find real strength in your marriage and true acceptance of each other, warts and all. Of course, that’s if the other person is a good spouse – I’m not talking about things like abuse of any kind or cheating.

    • Boston Green Eyes says:

      You are totally correct! They don’t call it the 7-year itch for nothing!

      • Lucy says:

        Oh dear. I will be married 7 years this month……….

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        Just be aware, Lucy. If he starts to grate a little, or you keep having the same argument over and over, give it time. Get counseling if you need it. (We did, but it only took three sessions – we said going in that we don’t want a divorce, we just need help resolving this one issue). It may be fine for you. I’m not trying to scare anyone, just to say it’s normal for even a good relationship to hit a few bumps. I’m sorry if I made you feel uneasy.

    • jugstorecowboy says:

      You are so right. Been married 10 years, and year 7-8 was a doozy. We both worked on it, figured out what needed to change and what we needed to just accept. Kind of like the serenity prayer, I guess. So much better now!

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        So glad you made it! And speaking from year 19, it just gets better.

      • jugstorecowboy says:

        You too! And I think yours is a great message for people just starting out. Not to scare people, but to show them the other side! Too many people do give up, and in the long run it’s (usually) easier to stay together I think.

      • Christin says:

        I’m at 15, and year 7 was the ‘go forward or give up’ year. We obviously plowed on, and I am very glad for it.

        I agree how it seems easier to give up. Confession here — I casually spoke to an attorney I knew, just to ask if he handled divorces (if things went in that direction). His small firm stopped taking any divorce or family law cases because (as he put it) ‘there are no winners in divorce.’ Made me stop and think all the more.

  17. Nancy says:

    She definitely seems like the type to bolt when things aren’t going her way. So much for better or for worse…..remember the vow Gisele?

    • Pondering thoughts says:

      She stayed with Dicaprio for a really long time.

      • Nancy says:

        She did. In fact I was wondering at the time, you’re leaving Leo for this jock? Anyway nobody fights anymore. Strike one, divorce. But, it all may be bs so who knows.

      • Kitten says:

        @Nancy- You really think Leo The Perpetual Modelizer would have been the better choice for her? Seriously? If she had stayed with Leo she’d either be (1) still waiting for him to get his shit together or (2) single because Leo traded her in for a younger version.

        I keep hearing people describe Tom as a “man child” but the dude takes care of his kids, supports his wife, and does his share of the providing.

        What 20-year old model is Leo dating now? Which yacht does he have parked in the south of France at the moment? I mean really..speaking of man-children, that dude is like a moon-faced Peter Pan.

      • Nancy says:

        Hi Kitten: I’m not a Leo endorser by any means but I’d take him in a New York minute over Brady. I always thought he was a well….pussy….cat. He has that Jack Armstrong All American Boy type aura going and dumps Bridget Moynahan when she’s pregnant with his kid and he’s moved on to the supermodel. Not a popularity contest here, but of all the parties involved, I’ll choose Bridget as my fav since she dodged a bullet by not marrying Tommy boy and found real love with another man. Frankly I think Leo and Gisele were a perfect couple….but who would get to the mirror first. Could never work. By the by, Gisele could probably buy and sell Tom, so much for him supporting her. Oh the problems of deflating balls and the rich and famous!

      • Crumpet says:

        Everything that Kitten said. Plus, who wouldn’t choose Brady’s hard bod over DiCaprio’s dad bod (and grizzly homeless man grooming).

        Nancy: STOP IT! Tom didn’t dump Bridget. She amicably broke up with him. She didn’t know she was pregnant.
        Of all the parties involved, I’ll choose Gisele as my fav..

    • briargal says:

      Vows don’t seem to mean a thing these days. Just empty words spoken during the ceremony. Sad! Back in the old days a man’s (a person’s) word was as good as a written contract but not anymore.

      • Pandy says:

        Not sure I agree with that. I think there has always been marital issues, but in the old days, women were financially dependent upon men, so they just had to take what was given.

      • Crumpet says:

        My husband and I never did the ceremony or marriage license. It is between us and God: we refuse to have our marriage defined by the government. So our union means even more to us because of that.

    • Louisa says:

      I met her in New York – we were using her as our model and she was super nice. Not pretentious, totally professional and generally patient and lovely. I think if anyone is an impetuous baby- it’s him. I am not saying she doesn’t have another side thats judgy on things like breastfeeding etc., but I think she is the more steady one of the 2

  18. Kate says:

    In the interest of full disclosure, I hate the Patriots with every fiber of my being, and I’m a bitter person who can’t let go of my indignation at her saying that formula feeding should be treated like a criminal offense, so part of me would be gleeful if the Overbite and the Smug Lactivist were miserable; HOWEVER, they have children, and I wouldn’t want to see any family come undone, so hopefully they’re happy together.

  19. potatopie says:

    And, oh my gosh, she would have to use HER OWN MONEY to pay for things!!! I read somewhere she makes him pay for all of their homes and whatnot and just puts her money away.

  20. ToodySezHey says:

    I don’t know about that Nancy, she put up with Leo’s bs for years, I don’t think she is the type to bolt if she doesn’t get all her way.

  21. Pondering thoughts says:

    Gisele stood by Dicaprio for how any years? My bet is that she will stay with Tom.

  22. Who ARE these people? says:

    Headline insta-response: “Oh tch.”

  23. QQ says:

    Im Contacting My Lawyer about seeking damages for what his face does to my eyes

  24. deezee says:

    I could see her divorcing him. I think she has reached a rare level of fame/popularity as a model where she could work (if she wanted to) well into her 40s. For Tom though, his time as a pro athlete is limited. Depending on what his career is after his NFL career, I could see her leaving him for someone else she deems acceptable.

  25. Cinderella says:

    She does not seem the type that will put up with a cheating husband (if he is a cheating husband). I can see her putting up with jerkiness, but not randoms in Vegas, (if there were randoms in Vegas).

    If their homes start hitting the market, look out.

    • Tilly says:

      Well, I thought it odd that they sold their dream home (to Dr Dre) … wasn’t that their everything?

      Re the comments above about her modelling, I thought she’d made it clear she’d retired?

      And re the comments above about Leo, my understanding is that they only split because he wouldn’t make a long-term commitment to marriage and babies. Leo is – apparently – a fabulous boyfriend and treats his ladies very well (commitment phobia aside). (And I don’t believe the ‘bearding’ rumours that always come out about him).

  26. funcakes says:

    I think it was over when she started popping out babies. He was in love for a hot second and then started calling the side pieces three months into her first pregnancy.
    He seems to shallow to appreciate the pregnant form of a woman’s body.

    • LeAnn Stinks says:

      Sorry, but she seems equally, if not more, shallow. Hiding under a burqua to get nips and tucks?? How shallow can you get?

      • funcakes says:

        They are both shallow, that’s true, but I was guessing at what point who lost interest first.
        That burqua incident was a##holish
        though.

  27. MindlessContemplations says:

    Nonsense. Tom and Giselle don’t own an apartment in Boston they own an estate in Brookeline

  28. WinnieCoopersMom says:

    You mean two self-centered, vapid famehoes are having issues? No. way. Time for a perfect family Instagram ASAP to calm the masses.

  29. Tessd says:

    Honestly, why divorce when you have a humongous house and so much money? Just live on the opposite ends, meet up for Sunday brunch and the rest of the time, travel the world!

  30. Rita says:

    Anyone would be irritable and nasty if the whole country knew they had deflated balls. Deflated-balls syndrome, it’s the worst. I hope they can work it out.

  31. stinky says:

    oh, to be a fly on the wall in Bridgette’s kitchen right now.

    • Don't kill me I'm French says:

      According to his emails,Gisele ,Tom and Bridget have a very good relationship

    • LeAnn Stinks says:

      She has to be civil because she wants her son to have a healthy relationship with his father, and the step mother is part of that equation. I would be shocked if she genuinely liked Giselle.

      I remember when they first got married, before they had their own children, there were reports that Moynahan was infuriated that Bunchen kept referring to John as “her son.”

      • Lilacflowers says:

        Yes, those reports appeared in the comments section of the Boston Herald’s Inside Track column. The Track is truly a highly reputable source and its comments section even more so.

  32. The Original Mia says:

    Not buying this. Sorry, Us. I think it makes for good gossip to speculate, but we’ve seen nothing to indicate these two are having any problems other than this ridiculousness with the NFL.

    • Kitten says:

      It’s all tabloid rags trying to sell stories. Total bullsh*t.

    • lucy2 says:

      Not buying it either. They may have some strains on their lives right now, but I agree, I haven’t seen anything suggesting they are unhappy with each other and want to split.

  33. Tilly says:

    This doesn’t surprise me in the slightest – he gives me a really mean vibe anyway and I imagine he turns in to a beast when things aren’t going well for him.

    I’ve read stuff about Gisele being difficult and obnoxious too though, so they’ve probably met their matches and things will no doubt get very messy if they do split.

    Bridget Moynihan had a lucky escape – and ended up with the perfect man in McG, which must further piss Tom off.

    • noke says:

      LOL! You DON’T know them…
      “He gives me a really mean vibe.” “Bridget Moynihan had a lucky escape – and ended up with the perfect man in McG.” “I’ve read stuff about Gisele being difficult and obnoxious too though.”

  34. Pandy says:

    I wonder if she wore a burqa when she consulted that lawyer?

  35. teacakes says:

    man, a lot of people want these two to divorce and be miserable about it.

    (shout-out to Kitten who is a Patriots fan!)

    • Kitten says:

      Thanks, teacakes. Pats fans are used to it..lol

      Once his suspension is vacated people will find something new to hate on Brady about. This has been going on since he replaced Bledsoe in 2001.

  36. holly hobby says:

    I’m not buying that Tommy is smart. All athletes have college degrees (most do) but they didn’t get in on regular merit like the rest of us. They got recruited for the sports program which has their own rules.

    Also, have you heard him explain away the deflated balls? Not too bright and definitely will be a bad color analyst for tv.

  37. E.M. MAXX says:

    All this BS talk about $$$
    If she can’t make her worth of $ 340 million last the rest of her life , well then she can suck it !!!!
    No pity for these overblown morons
    Also speaking of blown …
    Does anyone believe tom did not break off a piece of the nanny on the jet …
    Please ……..

  38. funcakes says:

    In other news Avril Levine is divorcing. What the heck is going on this summer?

  39. Miss M says:

    First of all, I think the divorce will not happen. But not for the reasons people are giving here.
    Second, I must be one of the few people who hope it doesn’t happen. They have a beautiful family and I hope they stay together.
    Third, Brazilians don’t threat(I know I am generalizing, but you get the gist). We go and do it.
    Fourth, if she talked to an attorney, She may be consulting as many people do at some point in their marriage.
    Finally, If she is divorcing I think it is something related to Ben and his(ex-) nanny…

  40. Neil says:

    Let me guess, the editor or writer of USmagazine has no opinion WHATSOEVER about “deflategate” and in no way does it that have any bearing on this story…. Sorry you don’t like the direction the court proceedings are going.
    Anyway, I call bullshite.

  41. PHD gossip says:

    Gisele is consulting divorce lawyer because the Nanny took a private jet flight with Tom and was photographed wearing his superbowl rings. Deflategate has nothing to do with it. His cheating was out in the open and she went nuts.

    • Ysohawt1 says:

      Ding,ding,ding,ding,ding…….Bingo….

    • Go says:

      Some sites (in Brazil) said Gisele was there with her husband. I don’t know if it’s true.
      The nanny has nothing to do with it. She was photographed wearing his superbowl rings. Who cares?

      • Ysohawt1 says:

        Betcha he was cheating with that Nanny, It’ll all come out in the wash. Someone cares, because Giselle is rumoured to be consulting divorce lawyers.

        Nanny gate …. Part 2.

      • Go says:

        WAKE UP! She is just posing with the rings.
        “Someone cares, because Giselle is rumoured to be consulting divorce lawyers.” Yes, YOU CARE. Don’t believe everything you read.
