Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen to split? QB's wife reportedly storms off to Costa Rica after epic fight due to his decision to unretire
Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen together form one of the most iconic celebrity couples, with each being an extremely popular public figure. Many idolize their relationship as they often appear in the headlines together with positive storylines.
In a shocking report recently released by Page Six, however, the seemingly perfect couple are at odds. Bundchen is reportedly unhappy with Tom Brady's decision to unretire during the 2022 NFL offseason. The Tampa Bay quarterback called time on his career in February, but his retirement lasted just 40 days and he decided to return to Tampa for at least one more season.
These past two months I’ve realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands. That time will come. But it’s not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. I’m coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business LFG https://t.co/U0yhRKVKVm
According to a Page Six source, Bundchen was not happy with Brady's decision and the two are in the middle of an epic fight right now. So much so that Bundchen left home and departed for Costa Rica to spend time away from the quarterback until the disagreement is resolved.
Page Six's sources also noted that similar incidents have happened before with the couple and they have always found a way to work things out. This specific fight apparently seems particularly serious. Sources had this to say about the situation:
“There’s been trouble in the marriage over his decision to un-retire. Gisele has always been the one with the kids. They had agreed he would retire to focus on the family, then he changed his mind.”
“It’s almost like Gisele was like, ‘Well, if you’re going to keep playing, so will I," the source added, referencing Bundchen's decision to return to modeling. “She’s resentful that Tom is still the football superstar.”
It sounds as if Brady made the decision to unretire against Bundchen's wishes. She was apparently hoping he would finally call it a career and spend more time with the family. After all, Brady is now 45 years old and has played for more than two decades.

Tom Brady's mysterious absence from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tom Brady uncharacteristically missed 11 consecutive days of Buccaneers training camp in August. The reasons for his absence have never been fully explained, but this fight may explain it.
Tom Brady had this to say about his absence following his return:
“It’s all personal.. everyone’s got different situations they’re dealing with. We all have really unique challenges to our life. I’m 45 years old, man. There’s a lot of s**t going on.”

His vague explanation did little to stop speculation over his absence. With Bundchen now in Costa Rica as a result of their disagreement, it's possible that he was away trying to work things out with his wife.
