Tom Brady and his longtime partner Gisele Bündchen went through a very public divorce that clearly put a strain on him emotionally. Now, it’s very clear that she has fully moved on from their relationship, and it certainly seems like Brady is feeling some emotions.

On Monday, People Magazine reported that Gisele and her new boyfriend Joaquim Valente are expecting their first child together, less than two years after she formally divorced Tom Brady.


“Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life and they’re looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family,” a source close to the situation told People Magazine in a statement.

Needless to say, this is pretty horrible news for Brady, who has not been in another long-term romantic relationship since the divorce.

And it certainly seems like Brady had a pretty emotional reaction to the news on social media.

On Monday evening, Brady made a rather cryptic post on social media, sharing a photo of a sunset with lyrics from the Fleetwood Mac song “Landslide” on his Instagram story.

“Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love? Can the child within my heart rise above? Can I sail through the changin’ ocean tides?” the post read.

This is not just any song, either. The song has quite a deep meaning.

The song “Landslide” was written by Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham about the struggles in their own relationship. The song is about two lovers in a failing relationship fighting to keep their romance alive, as Nicks explained in an interview.

“There were points during that time where I was like ‘This is never going to work. This is just never going to work. We’re going to end up breaking up, and everything we’ve worked for is going to be done and it’s all going to be for nothing,’” Nicks said during an interview. “That’s really what the song ‘Landslide’ is about.”

“Is it worth staying in this relationship to keep this relationship together? My opinion was always ‘Yes, it is.’ What we have to offer [together] is way better than what I have to offer by myself, or what he has to offer by himself,” Nicks said. “So, we need to stay together.”

Understandably, many people thought this was an emotional post from Brady, and it led to a lot of reactions on social media.

“Not Tom Brady posting The Chicks cover of ‘Landslide’ after news broke that Gisele Bündchen is having a baby with her hot jiu-jitsu instructor boyfriend,” a fan wrote on social media.

“lolll down so bad,” another person added.

“He just like me for real,” another person wrote.

“I genuinely had to check for myself to make sure this was real,” someone else said.

“If I fumbled Gisele that badly I’d be doing more than posting lyrics on Instagram,” someone else added.

“This is – and I am not joking – one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen,” someone else added.

“Historic fumble, I’d be in my feelings too,” another person said.

Obviously, these are just the opinions of everyday people. Brady obviously did not explicitly mention the news of Gisele’s pregnancy in his post, but fans seem very convinced about the connection.
