In the last few days, more information has come to light about the status of quarterback Tom Brady's marriage to wife Gisele Bundchen. The latter made it clear over the years that she wished for Brady to retire from the NFL and spend more time with their family.

The quarterback too had earlier gone on record to talk about how his desire to win more Super Bowls did come in between his relationship with Bundchen in the past:

"There was a couple years ago, she didn’t feel I was doing my part for the family. She felt like I would play football all season and she would take care of the house and then all the sudden when the season would end, that I’d be like, ‘Great, let me get into all my other business activities. Let me get into my football training.'"

Brady did his bit to appease Gisele by calling it quits on his football career earlier in the offseason, but ultimately succumbed to the temptation of the gridiron. Now back for season No. 23, TB12's decision to unretire has reportedly not gone down well with his wife.

With Bundchen apparently left fuming with the quarterback's decision to put football over family, rumors of trouble in paradise are doing the rounds. This prompts one to recall an excerpt from a biography about the life and career of Brady's former head coach Bill Belichick.

In the book, written by Ian O'Connor of ESPN and entitled, 'Belichick: The Making of the Greatest Football Coach of All Time', the player/coach relationship was shown to have hit a low point. Brady was apparently no longer willing to deal with Belichick's attitude and their equation was compared to an unhappy marriage.

In 2018, two years before TB12 would leave the New England Patriots, apparently many team members believed that the quarterback was already considering leaving. An anonymous source was quoted in the book saying:

“If you’re married 18 years to a grouchy person who gets under your skin and never compliments you, after a while, you want to divorce him. Tom knows Bill is the best coach in the league, but he’s had enough of him. If Tom could, I think he would divorce him.”

TB12's inability to change his game to be more of a dual-threat prompted Belichick to make changes. Sensing the need for a more dynamic quarterback starting under center, Belichick let the QB who helped him win six Super Bowl rings walk away from Gillete Stadium. It was ultimately Brady's failure to compromise and adapt to his coach's demands that led to what was a messy divorce.

Did Gisele Bundchen leave Tom Brady?

There have been so many rumors about Tom Brady's life lately that sometimes it's hard to separate the possible from the fantastical. But, in the last few days, it seems that the report that Bundchen went to Costa Rica without her family may actually be true.

Page Six was the first to confirm the story with additional sources now also reporting that the model has left their Florida home.

The quarterback posted a video of him taking his children to school last week on his Instagram stories, so it would appear that they are still with him. But Bundchen apparently is still not happy with him over his decision to retire for just 40 days before announcing his comeback.

Tom Brady alluded to having a tough situation going on in his personal life last week when he returned to the team. He said like everyone else, he's just trying to do his best as he navigates life.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will open the 2022 NFL season on the road at AT&T Stadium against the Dallas Cowboys. Without Tom Brady, their chances of succeeding look slim.
