The marriage of seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady and international supermodel Gisele Bundchen has come to an end.
In announcing their divorce, Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen posted separately on Instagram, saying the split was amicable and that they would continue co-parenting their children.
"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," Bündchen said.

"You're looking at your children and you're saying, 'I'm not going to be able to see them anymore. I'm not going to see them every day like I used to.' Everything changes, and to be able to put that in perspective is a huge accomplishment — probably the biggest accomplishment either of them have made so far," Kazarosian said.
Tom and Gisele were the "it" couple for many Patriots fans. Those fans are split on why they think this happened.
"I'm Brazilian so I think she's right," said Juliana Borges. "He doesn't seem in the last past time being a good guy for her and the kids, and she's good."

Annmarie Teuber doesn't feel that way.
"A man's work life is important and it's also important for him to be able to say goodbye to it at some point. So that’s up to Tom. Not up to Gisele," she said.
