On October 6, Miami was as bright as usual. A photojournalist captured the figure of Gisel Bunchen in front of a local building.
This former world's No. 1 supermodel was wearing simple clothes, black sunglasses, and an laptop, . There was no trace of the wedding ring on her left ring finger.
It is worth mentioning that this building is a well-known "lawyer building" in Miami. This seems to confirm the outside world's speculation - the marriage between Giselle Bundchen and her husband, rugby , has indeed come to an end.
After a while, Bangchen walked out of the building and found a media camera. He raised his laptop expressionlessly to cover his face, quickly returned to the Land Rover car and left.
In the past 13 years, Bangchen and Brady have both shown their image as a model celebrity couple, and they are very loving. She and her three children shouted and cheered for Brady on the sidelines, which has always been a happy picture.
But in real life, Bangchen, who sacrificed his career and "widowed parenting" for more than ten years, has been unable to get her husband's understanding. Instead, the other party went back on his word on retirement and always put all his energy on the court, which made her feel discouraged.
Now, this marriage between a golden boy and a jade girl has come to an end. It is no exaggeration to say that it has shaken the view of love of a large number of Americans across the ocean.

The husband "retired" and shot him
Girl Ji completely gave up
This is not the first time Bangchen has been photographed "wedding ring missing". On October 3, a paparazzi met Bangchen at the door of a gym in Miami. He was wearing a gym, making a phone call with a serious face, his fingers were empty.
Since September, she and Brody have been separated. It is said that the two had an unprecedented fierce quarrel. Finally, Bangchen slammed the door and ran away, leaving home to Costa Rica .
A few days later, she returned to Miami and went to the water park with the children alone, without meeting Brady.
On September 25, in the game where Tampa Bay Pirates played against the Green Bay Packers at home, many fans also focused on the sidelines - as expected, Gisele Bundchen did not appear, and only three children came to cheer for Brady.
According to people familiar with the matter, Brady was actually very disappointed when he saw this scene because he especially hoped that Bangchen could watch the game, which also means that the gap between the two is difficult to bridge.
Bongchen was her husband's most enthusiastic supporter on the sidelines. In February last year, 44-year-old Brady led the Buccaneers to win his seventh Super Bowl , creating great history. Bangchen wrote a long message on Instagram to congratulate her husband:
"For many years, I have watched you overcome adversity physically and psychologically. I am sure that you are the most dedicated and focused person I have ever met. This year has been very challenging. You are familiar with your teammates and coaches in a new environment, and you wake up early with scars every day, never complaining... I am proud of you and fascinated by your every time you pass it. The smile she showed when the ball was going on. "
Finally, she wrote: "Now you have won all the achievements, we can go home together (well, at least until next season). "
This sentence seems meaningful, and the outside world has begun to speculate when this old king will retire. Until February this year, Tom Brady finally announced his retirement and posted a message on social media to thank his wife: "She did everything for her family, so I was able to focus on the field. I can't describe the meaning of you to me and our family in words."
Just when Bangchen thought he could get out of the burden of a housewife and live a retirement life with her husband, things turned around.
Just 40 days later, Brady actually "backed his word" and announced his comeback. "The past two months made me realize that my position is still on the court, not on the stands. I'm going back to play season 23 and we have an unfinished career. "
The conflict between the two broke out completely, and there were constant quarrels between the two, until they ran away from home in September, and took off their wedding rings angrily. The desolate Niang Niang finally decided to leave this man.

The former golden boy and jade girl
Love myth is hard to continue
In the past ten years, Bangchen and Brady have It is the role model of American celebrity couples.
The wife is the world's number one supermodel, and the husband is the king of the sports world in the United States. The two are in a good match in terms of achievements, appearance, wealth, etc. They always show up together in public places, and are extremely loving and sweet.
It is precisely because of this that the marriage between Bundchen and Brady is about to end, which makes people feel particularly surprised: Even this couple has collapsed, how can they believe in love and marriage?
"When they first married this football star, they are going to divorce him because they play football? "A American netizen raised such questions and mocked Bangchen, "If he really stays at home every day, do you still want him not to go out and find something to do in his spare time? "
words seem to be saying that Bundchen has gained today's popularity through Brady. For those familiar with the fashion industry, such straight men's remarks are really ridiculous.
14 was spotted by star scouts on the streets of Brazil at the age of 17, and took 42 shows in New York a year. In 1998, 18-year-old Gisele Bundchen became a hit on the McQueen Spring and Summer Show, and his figure and temperament shocked the world.
Bundchen ushered in his career peak, starting from Christian Dior, Celine, PRADA , Chanel to Bvlgari, Lanvin, Valentino are all the protagonists who can't be beaten.
2000, the ambitious underwear brand " Victoria's Secret " signed a long-term contract with Bangchen for tens of millions of dollars. A new era of supermodels has begun. In 2007, she terminated her contract with Victoria's Secret , and the latter's stock price directly dived, which shows Bangchen's value and influence.
Bangchen's figure seems to be specially created for the catwalk. At the same time, her aura and domineering pace are unique in the supermodel industry, with "Horse" The title of Walk" describes her heroic appearance when she walked on the long legs and walked on the show. Her glorious career lasted for more than ten years. Every year she was the most profitable supermodel on the Forbes list. Until 2015, Bangchen was still ranked first with an annual income of US$44 million.
Fashion Media The CUT calculated that Bangchen earns US$450,000 per step on the runway, which is approximately RMB 3.2 million.
2016 Rio Olympic opening ceremony, Brazil's "national treasure" Gisele Bangchen appeared in a flashing long dress, once again making this iconic "Horse" Walk” dedicated to audiences all over the world, like a god descending to earth.
In terms of love, Bangchen has always been at the top of the show in the entertainment industry and has had a famous 5-year relationship with Leonardo DiCaprio .
Little Li Zi is generous and spends 4 million to buy a big diamond ring for Bangchen, but Bangchen wants more than that. In an interview, the host asked her what the gift she wanted most, and she said it was a child. This sentence can be imagined that Little Li Zi was very scared. He never thought about getting married.
In 2005, Bunchen, who was extremely disappointed, left DiCaprio (yes, Bunchen was exactly 25 years old that year). She took out the jewelry given by the other party one by one to auction, and donated the income to the charity foundation.
A year later, with the help of mutual friends, Bangchen met Brady, who had become a football star. At that time, Brady had won three Super Bowls and was also a regular on Forbes' list.
The relationship between the two did not start very smoothly. Not long after confirming the relationship, Brady's ex-girlfriend discovered that he was pregnant with his child.
Fortunately, Bangchen was generous and finally took the initiative to accept the child and regarded him as his own. In order to give her children a stable home, she and Brady put their marriage on the agenda early.
In February 2009, this pair of golden boy and jade girls entered the marriage hall. In December of the same year, Benjamin, the two shared first child, was born; in December 2012, they welcomed their youngest daughter Vivian.

Billionaire still cannot escape
Widowed parenting dilemma
In 2015, Bangchen announced the end of his runway career, focusing on his family life, and at the same time running his own personal fashion project.
Having children has a great impact on Bangchen's catwalk career. Many people have seen the famous backstage photo. Bangchen lets the staff put on makeup and comb his hair while breastfeeding his baby in his arms. She insisted on breastfeeding, but this caused her breast shrinkage and the shape of the sides was asymmetrical.
"I am very fragile because of this. I can't change it by my exercise or diet. Finally I had surgery, but I regretted it very much. I felt very bad. After that, I spent the whole year with loose clothes..."
Relying on the catwalk and advertising endorsement, Bangchen accumulated nearly $400 million in wealth before retiring. But she still has a strong career aspiration. After retirement, she started a number of personal careers, including underwear brands, skin care brands, etc. She invested in real estate, published books, and took on variety shows, and was still a busy person.
"I even work harder than before. I may not really retire until the day I died. I like to create." She said this in a variety show interview in 2018. At the same time, she also admitted that although her husband is in his 40s, he still has no plans to retire and she cannot persuade him.
Even Gisele Bundchen, who is a billionaire, cannot escape the dilemma of "widowed parenting".
Over the years, she moved with her husband at least 5 times. The responsibility of taking care of her children has always been on Bangchen alone. From eating and living to sending her children to school every day, even at the end of the season, Brady will quickly devote himself to his own business activities and football training.
In 2020, Brady complained to the media that his wife felt that she had not fulfilled her family responsibilities, but he was really too busy.
"I have been playing basketball all season and she will take care of the family. When the season is over, I will say, OK, now I will start to work on other business things, and also train to stay in physical condition. She will only complain: Then when will you take your children to school and when will you do housework?"
The two also have differences in their children's education. Brady is a typical American sports straight man. When he learned that his second son Benjamin did not like sports, he said he could not understand.
"Giselle told me, can you understand that children are different, but this is difficult for me. I just think that he is a boy and he should do the things I am good at." Another difficulty in
Another problem with this is that Bundchen and Brady have immeasurable huge wealth, and have luxury houses in Manhattan , Montana, and Miami.Some houses are still under construction, originally designed for Brady's retirement life, but now they have become the common property of couples that need to be divided.
Among the three children, although 15-year-old Jack was born to Brady and his ex-girlfriend, he grew up with his younger brother and sister and had a deep relationship. If he really divorced, how to raise his child is also a difficult problem.
Nowadays, the conflict between the two seems to be irreconcilable. A celebrity couple who once envied countless people may go their separate ways, which is a pity.
