Tom Brady's Christmas message includes everyone except ex-wife Gisele Bundchen
Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers welcomed the holidays with a 19-16 OT win against the Arizona Cardinals. The star QB was understandeably ecstatic about the game, which could have ended in the Cardinals' favor. Brady made sure to thank his loved ones in the post-game interview.
The Bucs and Brady have struggled this season, making any win by the team important for their performance. The 45-year-old has tried to keep up his game throughout the season, often opening up about his struggles on the field.
His off-field life, however, was equally turbulant. Gisele Bundchen and Brady announced their divorce after years of togetherness, stunning fans and well-wishers from across the world.
Interestingly, Bundchen didn't make it to the list of people he thanked after the Cardinals win:
“Say hi to my parents, my sisters, my kids, love you all, hope you had a good time. Merry Christmas to everyone, see you soon. Thank you."
Brady addressed the game itself, speaking about how the win was tougher than it should have been. But the Cardinals' defended well, putting Brady and his team in a tight spot. Their focus, ultimately, will be on the upcoming game against the Carolina Panthers.
Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen seem to have moved on
While one cannot confirm any private details about their lives, Bundchen and Tom Brady seem to be finally moving on. Together since 2006, they were the undisputed NFL power couple.
Barely a few months after their separation, Bundchen and Brady are already being linked to others. The Brazilian supermodel was spotted with her jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente, who seems to be teaching Gisele and her children at the same time. Most sources denied the rumors, referring to their relationship as strictly professional.
Brady was linked to another model, Veronika Rajek. The 26-year-old is known to be an ardent Brady fan, often cheering him on from the sidelined. She recently attended a Bucs game and was delighted to finally see her idol win.
However, considering their little to no interaction on social media or in public, Rajek might just be another fan of the seven-time Super Bowl champion.
Brady and Gisele, of course, are yet to address any rumors after their divorce.
Their only link seems to be their children - Ben, Vivian and Jack. Bundchen often comments on Brady's posts about their children on social media, leaving a single red heart in the comments.
