Gisele Bundchen finally makes first public appearance since announcing divorce from Tom Brady

Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady are no longer together after a marriage that lasted 13 years and bore them two children. The couple divorced in 2022 amid a much-scrutinized separation that created a ton of rumors about the reason, but it seems they ended their relationship on good terms.

Gisele spent the weeks after the divorce away from the spotlight, but she's back to making public appearances now. The model was spotted in a metallic gold dress during an event for jewelry brand Vivara's 60th-anniversary dinner in São Paulo, Brazil, her native country, on December 12.

After announcing the divorce on October 28, Bundchen was spotted at Disney World in early December alongside her children, Benjamin and Vivian. A few days ago, the trio was clicked enjoying the beaches of Barra Norte in Brazil - she went back to her native country with her children in the early days of December.

Why did Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady split?

Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady decided to end their 13-year relationship after months of speculation. It seems that the quarterback's decision to return for the 2022 season after he first announced his retirement was the last straw for the Brazilian supermodel, with rumors pointing out that she handed an ultimatum to Brady to pick between football or his family.

In an interview during the offseason, Gisele said that she had sacrificed much for their relationship and that it was time for her to focus on her career. Being one of the best-known models in the world, she has an estimated net worth of $400 million.

The couple confirmed their divorce in an Instagram announcement in October. Brady wrote at the time:

"In recent days, my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage. We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together."

Tom Brady also has a child with his former girlfriend, Bridget Moynahan, whom he dated for three years before their relationship ended in 2006.

The quarterback's decision to return to football in 2022 is not paying huge dividends right now, as the Buccaneers are struggling to get going on offense. While they lead the NFC South, they're far from being the powerhouse from the previous two seasons. Brady's net worth is a reported $200 million.
