“Our Values Are Similar”: Gisele Bündchen Once Revealed the Factors That Made Marriage With Tom Brady Work for 13 Long Years

Tom Brady just finished his 23rd season in the NFL after losing 31-14 to the Dallas Cowboys in Monday’s NFC Super wild-card playoff round. However, Brady kept his composure in the post-game press conference and calmly stated that there can only be one winner. And former wife, Gisele Bündchen, is well aware of TB12’s Zen mentality.

In her book ‘Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life,’ Gisele speaks in length about the many reasons she chose the then NE Patriots quarterback as her life partner. And Tampa Tom’s temperament and mental strength were some of the key factors for Bündchen. Also, there were a few more similarities between the power couple.

Tom Brady was the calming force around Gisele Bündchen

Gisele Bündchen was no stranger to dating high-profile celebrity figures before settling down with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback. Having dated Oscar-winning Hollywood stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, she decided it was the calm that she desired more. And there is no one calmer than seven-time Super Bowl champion, Tom Brady.

“I’ve been in romances where I felt I was swimming in fast-moving waters and others where the water was calm and still. When I chose Tom to be my life partner, I was fortunate to find a man calmer than he is stormy. As his teammates will tell you, Tom is someone you can count on,” Gisele writes in her book.

However, there was more than just the demeanor and nature that Gisele saw in TB12.

Gisele also found a partner in maintaining a life of discipline

It’s not easy to last in the NFL for over two illustrious decades without being a pillar of sacrifice and hard work. And Tom Brady is so addicted to it all. He even came out of his own retirement this year, ultimately leading to his divorce from Gisele in October. However, Bündchen would still agree that Brady complemented her perfectly when it came to maintaining health and fitness levels.

“Our values are similar. We’re both disciplined in our daily routines and habits. We’re both committed to good health and good nutrition,” the former Brazilian supermodel added.
