The USA has been reporting with great interest in the last two days about the expected divorce of the supermodel and superstar Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen. After the decision of the two to separate, and after Bundchen appointed herself a divorce lawyer, Brady also hired a lawyer, and now the couple will begin their official separation, following their marriage and relationship problems.
Brady, 45, the greatest football player of all time, has been married to a Brazilian woman for 13 years. The couple have two children - son Benjamin Raine, 12, and daughter Vivian Lake, 9, while Brady has another child - c Van Edward, 15, with ex Bridget Moynahan The two have faced "a lot of stress" in their marriage, in part because of Brady's decision to return to the NFL this season after a brief retirement.

In an interview this summer with Bonduchen, 42, Gisele said she had "concerns" about the continuation of Brady's career, who at age 44 unexpectedly decided to continue playing, after already announcing his retirement.
This is a very unusual age for a football player, relative to a very physical and demanding game.
"Obviously I have my concerns - it's a very violent sport, and I have my children and I would like him to be more present," said the Brazilian model.
"I definitely had these conversations with him over and over again. But in the end, I feel that everyone has to make the right decision for them. They have to go after what makes them happy."
However, from Giselle's side, "insiders" say that "his decision to return to football symbolized what he puts first in life, she is tired of him and it frustrates her that the career comes before the family, even though she has always supported him".
On the other hand, those close to Brady, who won the Super Bowl seven times, claim that he is "completely devoted" to his children during and outside the season, and spends time with his family between games and trips.
"No other husband gets six months off a year to be devoted only to his family," the source said.
"And during the season, it is true that he travels to games and training, but he is also with his family a lot."

If Bündchen and Brady do decide to divorce, the model and the quarterback will have to divide their assets, which are estimated at hundreds of millions of dollars, and close the issue of custody of their children.
It is believed that they have a financial agreement.
"People of this magnitude of wealth don't usually get married without a document that dictates what will happen if it doesn't work out," says an American expert.
According to reports, they have not been living together for some time, and in the summer he went on vacation with his children without her.
However, it is claimed that there is no suspicion of cheating.
how much are they worth
They were one of the richest couples in all of sports and entertainment, and quite surprisingly, the claims are that Gisele is worth more and has made more money.
Just from 2021 to 2022, Brady's total estimated net worth swelled from $180 million to $250 million.
In May, "Forbes" reported that he had become the ninth-ranked athlete in the world in terms of income, with a long list of sponsorship agreements.
The Brazilian supermodel is worth $400 million.
Much of this is thanks to her impressive business investments - with multi-million dollar deals with Victoria's Secret, Chanel, Pantene, as well as her own line of designer sandals and the purchase of a Brazilian hotel.
She was a supermodel at the height of the "genre's" success, and knew how to leverage it with revenues estimated at half a billion dollars in the last decades.
The couple also have joint properties, when just in December 2020 they purchased a $17 million home on Indian Creek Island in Miami, dubbed the "billionaires' bunker."

In the sports world they react
Sports fans, as expected, are delighted by the move, and for many football fans - Brady is a "hero" due to the fact that he put the game before everything else.
At the same time, many are amused by the fact that even at such an age he puts his career first, and if in the past the fear of his wife deterred him, now he will "continue to play until he is 90", as one of the fans tweeted.
