Gisele Bündchen has been nothing short of an icon in the modeling industry. The Brazilian model was once the highest-paid model in the world. Through the years, Bündchen has been featured on the front pages of numerous magazines. She is also very vocal in her campaigns for the environment. Aside from her career and campaigns, Bündchen is a mother of two children.

The model was married to seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady. Together they have children, Benjamin and Vivian. After a 13-year marriage, the couple finalized their divorce in October. Prior to the divorce, Bündchen was very open about her family life. The model also published a memoir, ‘Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life.’

Gisele Bündchen was not drawn to the glamorous side of the industry

In her memoir, the model opened up about her childhood, all the way to her career. She divulged her secrets to success, alongside her learning experiences. In one particular section of her memoir, the model talks about the fact that she loves her work. She also believes that she became good at modeling because she was not naturally photogenic. An excerpt from her memoir read, “There are lots of models who look fantastic on film. But I felt I wouldn’t look good just standing in front of the camera. I had to become animated, more like an actress or dancer, in order to create a special moment.” Anyone who has seen the model interacting will definitely agree that, aside from modeling, she also speaks animatedly.

Bündchen did not set out with the intention of becoming a model. She modeled during the day and went home. The former Victoria’s Secret model said that she would work all day, head home to cuddle with her dog, and read. Her memoir says, “I wasn’t interested in parties, glamour, fancy clothes, or late nights. I was happiest going home and starting a new book.” That is something every introvert will relate to.

They each echoed what the other was saying with regard to their children being the top priority. While the former couple’s current relationship with each other cannot be determined, it does seem like they truly had an amicable divorce. Not many would want to say anything nice about their former partner after a fresh split. But, Bündchen commented a red heart on Brady’s Instagram post that featured his oldest son Jack. The Bucs quarterback and his former partner, actress Bridget Moynahan, are parents to Jack. Despite the speculation surrounding their marriage over the last few months, it seems like the former couple is in the process of starting a fresh chapter.
