Who Is Tom Brady’s Wife Gisele And How Long Have They Been Married?

Tom Brady is married to a Brazilian-born fashion model Gisele Bundchen, who has ranked among the most-paid models in the world since 2001. 

The 41-year-old, born in July 1980 in Horizontina began her career in 1995, just one year before her infamous debut at the New York fashion week.

She has appeared on the covers of various top magazines, starred in movies like “The Devil Wears Prada,” and “Taxi,” and was named the 16th richest woman in the entertainment industry in 2007. Additionally, Bundchen is renowned for holding the title of the highest-paid model in the world for a record fifteen consecutive years.

Before marrying Brady, the supermodel signed a deal with Victoria’s Secret, championing the lingerie brand’s Angel campaign. She and her partner have enjoyed a loving marriage for the last 23 years.

Although she has since retired from the industry (in 2015) the multitalented star has expanded her reach, dabbling into acting, and entrepreneurship, and even authored the memoir, “Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life,” in 2018.

Tom Brady And Gisele Bundchen’s First Meeting Was Special

Brady met his wife Gisele in 2006, through a mutual friend. Despite being their first time seeing each other and communicating, the twosome knew instantly they were a perfect match thanks to their undeniable connection. She reflected:

“The moment I saw him, he smiled and I was like, ‘That is the most beautiful, charismatic smile I’ve ever seen! We sat and talked for three hours. I had to go home for Christmas, but I didn’t want to leave.”

At the time, Brady was in a relationship with Bridget Moynahan, whom he dated for three years. The athlete soon ended things with Moynahan and proceeded to pursue a relationship with his future wife in January 2007.

Overcoming Challenges

Sadly, two and half months into their romance, Moynahan revealed she was pregnant with Brady’s child. The bombshell news gave their relationship a hard hit. Gisele reminisced:

“It was definitely a surprise for both of us. In the beginning, you are living this romantic fantasy. You’re thinking, This can’t be true. It’s so good!’ And then whoops—wake up call!”

Following the relationship, Bundchen found herself faced with the dilemma of whether or not to break things off with Brady. She decided to stay and work things out. That challenge admittedly made their relationship stronger.

Brady welcomed his son, John Edward Thomas Moynahan in August 2007, and Bundchen has loved him as her own ever since.

Their Engagement And Marriage

After two years of dating, Tom Brady proposed to Gisele Bundchen in a most creative way. The model once recalled the engagement, saying her future husband tricked her into believing her house was flooded.

When she rushed over, she found the place flooded with rose petals and candles, rather than water. There and then, he got down on one knee and popped the question.

A month after the engagement, the power couple tied the knot in a private ceremony in Santa Monica, California. Their nuptials took place in February 2009. 

They relived the moment two months later, with their extended families serving as witnesses in the romantic affair in Costa Rica.

Tom Brady And Gisele Bundchen Became Parents

Ten months after their marriage, Brady and Gisele Bundchen welcomed their first child together. The baby, Benjamin Rein joined the family on December 8, 2009, following his birth in a bathtub at their Boston home.

Three years later, a new addition joined the family. Their daughter Vivian Lake landed the planet on December 5, 2012.

More Trouble Swarmed Their Marriage

In 2015, rumors of a separation between the duo began to swirl, with multiple sources revealing they were experiencing marital issues. However, Brady put the rumors to rest that same year, confirming in a radio interview that they were in a great place.

But that was hardly the end of their woes. The two endured more challenges together amid the “Deflategate” scandal of 2015.

Bundchen stood by Tom Brady as the New England Patriots underwent investigations for allegations of providing under-inflated footballs. The icon ended up suspended for four seasons following the crisis.

Many more marital challenges followed, but the duo successfully surmounted them. On how they did so, Brady once recalled a particularly challenging phase of their union, where he had to reach a compromise. He shared:

“She wasn’t satisfied without marriage and I needed to make a change in that. Her point was, ‘of course, this works for you, but it doesn’t work for me.’ I had to check myself, because she was like, ‘I have my goals and dreams too.’”

The Secret To Their Long-Lasting Union

The beautiful couple has been open about the secret to their long-lasting marriage. Brady once explained that clear current communication has helped them navigate even the toughest times.

Hence, rather than let grievances bottle up, they endeavored to communicate and let out those feelings immediately they surface. On her part, Bundchen believes having “fully present moments” with everybody was key in their relationship.

Brady supports his wife’s opinion as well, admitting making time for one another has indeed helped sustain their connection. Notwithstanding, communication remained the ultimate key to constant improvement in their marriage.
