The Tampa Bay Buccaneers superstar Tom Brady went through a lot this year. At the start of 2022, Brady retired from professional football. But he quickly came back out of it to pursue an eighth Super Bowl ring with the Buccaneers. He has won six of them with the New England Patriots and one with the Bucs.

The decision to come back on the field became the cause of his divorce from his wife of 13 years. Gisele Bündchen wanted him to prioritize family. The supermodel parted ways with Brady in October 2022 after a month of speculation. The couple will share the custody of the two younger children, 12-year-old Benjamin, and nine-year-old Vivian. Brady has a 15-year-old son, Jack, with his ex-girlfriend actress Bridget Moynahan.
