Mentioning how Gisele Bündchen wished for her then-husband to retire, Charly also hinted at the model’s hopes for Brady to overcome on-field injuries. In a candid take, Arnolt explained, “Tom just kept making football his main priority.” Articulating on Gisele’s narrative, the sportscaster continued, “She asked him to retire. She wanted him to spend more time with the family.”

With further insights on what Gisele Bündchen urged for, Charly mentioned, “She wanted him to have a very successful future. He did retire, but then he went back, and I think at that point she was like, okay, you’re not taking me seriously.”

Additionally, sportscaster Charly also highlighted the emotional aspect of Brady and his former partner’s separation. Amid swirling speculations, Gisele Bündchen personally responded to these claims, disregarding the influence of Tom’s short-lived retirement and its link to their divorce.
