Tom Brady relied on familiarity and the strong bond he had with one specific individual before he could make a life-altering decision. While it’s not uncommon to consult those closest to you before making tough choices, TB12’s candidate of choice will raise some eyebrows. Because consulting a former partner is not usually a wise choice.
Brady and his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen announced that they were parting ways after 13 years of marriage. The months prior to the announcement, gave the NFL world an indication that the situation was tense. This is why Brady’s reported conversation with Bündchen is rather astonishing.

Last year, TB12 announced that he would be leaving the game. But retirement didn’t suit the QB. Soon enough he was back for more. But, despite the hype surrounding his return, speculation pointed out Gisele Bündchen’s unhappiness with his decision to unretire. The slippery slope began to unfold as the QB juggled a divorce and battles on the field. In light of everything that occurred, TB12’s decision to consult Bündchen before announcing his second retirement is quite surprising.

The report said that the former couple, “talked this through before he came to the final decision.” The magazine’s source also referred to Bündchen as a “real rock” during the process. Many fans may be surprised by their close bond despite their divorce. But, factoring in the responsibilities they share, being in each other’s good graces is the right way forward.

Brady has ample time to focus on what matters
TB12 and Bündchen are co-parents to their children Benjamin and Vivian. After years of taking the field while his wife held down the fort at home, the QB can now focus on his familial priorities. Earlier, speculation pointed at Bündchen wanting the QB to retire so that he could be more present. Concerns about his age were also reportedly discussed.
Perhaps those were the same thoughts that were reiterated during their reported conversation. Now that the QB has a year before he embarks on his broadcasting career, he has enough time to reflect and reevaluate. While Brady believes he has more to give the game, now he has the time to give his attention to things that truly matter.
