Megyn Kelly had choice words for superstar quarterback Tom Brady on Wednesday for seemingly sacrificing his marriage with supermodel Gisele Bündchen to play one extra season of NFL football.

Kelly was irked while watching Brady’s retirement video when he said how he “wouldn’t change a thing” when it came to his illustrious football career. She said, “you wouldn’t change the part at the end where you lost your wife of, I don’t know, 10 plus years, 12 years because you wouldn’t retire? A thing you then decided to do 365 days later.”

Brady’s return to the gridiron after briefly retiring last year was rumored to have caused a rift between the couple back in September, according to Paige Six. Kelly believes that the legendary football star’s decision to play for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season was the driving force behind why the supermodel called it quits in October.

“Where’s the self-sacrifice? Where’s the mature decision to say, ‘I will table my one year to sacrifice, for you, my spouse; to sacrifice for the sake of my marriage and for the sake of my children to have their family remain together’?” Kelly said. “Tom Brady seems like a rather sweet guy. I don’t think he’s evil-hearted. He’s amazing as a football player … but the collapse of your marriage over one extra year of football seems like something one should regret.”

The popular talk show also said that Brady’s decision to return to the game was a “middle finger” to Bündchen and caused a lot of “heartache” for the whole family.

Brady is catching a lot of flack from Kelly here, but why couldn’t Gisele be supportive of him and his decision to come back to play knowing how much he loves his job? I believe Gisele should have been by his side all season long instead of giving him a tough ultimatum of choosing his job or his family, if that’s how their divorce came about.

That said, I’m on the outside looking in on the situation so there could be more to the story than we know, but if my wife was living out her dream I would be by her side and supporting her 100%, come hell or high water.

It’s a shame that Brady and Bündchen’s marriage ended in divorce.

Hopefully they both find happiness moving forward.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
