Supermodel Gisele Bündchen and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady officially filed for divorce Friday in Florida. The NFL world was quick to roast the latest episode in a string of bad losses and dubious distinctions on the field for the future Hall of Famer.
Brady broke his silence via Instagram Stories shortly after the news went public. Bündchen quickly followed, also on Instagram Stories.
The statement reads in full:
With much gratitude for our time together, Tom and I have amicably finalized our divorce. My priority has always been and will continue to be our children whom I love will all my heart. We will continue co-parenting to give them the love, care and attention they greatly deserve.
The decision to end a marriage is never easy but we have grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always.
I kindly ask that our privacy be respected during this sensitive time.
The previous media reports placed Bündchen living with her children in Miami while consulting a “spiritual healer.” Brady and the Buccaneers are next in action Sunday when they host the Los Angeles Rams.
