The crashed marriage of supermodel Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady has been described as ‘traumatizing’.
An ESPN reporter Jeff Darlington, who interviewed Tom Brady on “First Take” Wednesday morning asked why Brady decided to call it a career after 23 seasons in the league.
“Just talking to people this morning, many of which are very close to Tom, I would choose one word: Exhausted. He’s tired,” Darlington said. “I think it’s not just about the 23-year career, which obviously deservedly so, he’s 45 years old. It’s time to rest up.”

After a year of stunning the sports world with a retirement announcement, Brady informed his fans in an emotional Instagram video that it’s “for real” this time.
“But we have to remember. Take the human element of this past year into consideration. During the most hyper-focused time of his life, which is in-season, he went through the stress of a divorce — a traumatizing divorce for him. So, now he stepped back. He decided, ‘You know what, I need to recharge. I need to rebuild my life and get myself reenergized,’ and not for the football field, but just in general,” Darlington said.
