Gisele Bündchen is a force to be reckoned with in the modeling and runway world. Her recent brand campaigns have caused quite a stir, catapulting the Brazilian beauty back into the spotlight. However, her journey hasn’t always been smooth sailing.

In her memoir, “Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life,” Gisele bravely opened up about a dark time in her life when she reached the pinnacle of her career but found herself deeply unhappy. Despite her superstar status, the blonde bombshell was struggling to cope with the pressures of fame and success.

While at her apartment in New York, Bündchen booked a massage to ease her worries and feel relaxed. But things only turned worse between her session as she found herself overwhelmed with suicidal thoughts.

The dark days of Gisele

Gisele Bündchen explained how she felt breathless and had extremely negative thoughts. She wrote, “I couldn’t catch my own breath. Making some excuse, I got up, pulled my towel around myself, and went outside onto the deck. It was a beautiful night. There was the water and the lights in the distance, and as much air as I needed, but I still couldn’t find my breath. It felt like everything in my life was going to kill me.”

The blonde bombshell further explained everything turned into a cage, including aircraft, elevators, hotels, modeling studios, and automobiles. It was now her residence, where she felt isolated inside and gasping for breath. Bündchen couldn’t see a path to escape and could not bear another day like this.
