Gisele Bündchen kept it real … or did she?

Tom Brady’s ex-wife Gisele Bündchen spoke out publicly for the first time since her October 2022 divorce with the seven-time Super Bowl champion quarterback in a bombshell interview with Vanity Fair.

Up until this point, most speculated the reason behind Bündchen and Brady’s divorce was due to the latter’s decision to un-retire from the NFL and play for another season, but Bündchen claims that’s not what happened at all.

“Listen, I have always cheered for him, and I would continue forever,” Bündchen told Vanity Fair in the interview published March 22, adding the thought of her giving Brady an ultimatum is “very hurtful” and the “craziest thing I’ve ever heard.”

“If there’s one person I want to be the happiest in the world, it’s him, believe me,” she continued. “I want him to achieve and to conquer. I want all his dreams to come true. That’s what I want, really, from the bottom of my heart.”

She then revealed the real reason behind their divorce.

“That takes years to happen,” Bündchen said, and then strangely added she is grieving “the death of my dream.”

“Sometimes you grow together; sometimes you grow apart,” she continued.

“It’s tough because you imagine your life was going to be a certain way, and you did everything you could, you know?” Bündchen said. “You give everything you got to achieve your dream. You give a hundred percent of yourself, and it’s heartbreaking when it doesn’t end up the way you hoped for, and worked for, but you can only do your part.”

Huh?

Such a strange interview.

But, man, what a shame Gisele Bündchen let go of a hunk like Tom Brady, given the fact he’s the greatest athlete of all time and just an all-around great guy. (RELATED: REPORT: Lamar Jackson Is Using A ‘Non-Certified Representative’ To Tell Teams He Wants To Leave The Baltimore Ravens)
