According to reports, Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen have hired divorce attorneys, possibly indicating the end of their 13-year marriage.
The seven-time Super Bowl winner and supermodel both engaged divorce lawyers, according to NBC News on Tuesday. In recent weeks, the couple has been living apart, a source close to the pair told CNN.
Brady and Bündchen have been married since 2009 and have two kids together, who are now aged 9 and 12. Brady and his ex, actor Bridget Moynahan, also share a 15-year-old son.
Brady, 45, announced his retirement from the NFL in February but later announced his comeback to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for another season.
Brady’s return to the sport worried Bündchen, who spoke with Elle in an interview that was published last month.
“Obviously, I have my concerns ― this is a very violent sport and I have my children and I would like him to be more present,” she told the magazine. “I have definitely had those conversations with him over and over again. But ultimately, I feel that everybody has to make a decision that works for [them]. He needs to follow his joy, too.”
In August, Brady took an 11-day leave of absence from the team’s training camp to “deal with personal things,” according to the coach.
