NFL GOAT Tom Brady experienced a roller-coaster ride throughout his illustrious 23-season career. However, his journey could have been cut short by almost five years — not due to injury, but because of a request from his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen. Brady’s unwavering love for football pushed him to defy the age factor, but the former Victoria’s Secret supermodel was equally firm in her stance.
In 2017, Brady had just secured another Super Bowl victory — Super Bowl LI against the Atlanta Falcons at NRG Stadium in Houston. After the game, Brady said that Bündchen wanted him to retire that very night. As reported by The Sun in February 2017, Brady said:
“If it was up to my wife, she would have me retire today. She told me that (Sunday) night three times.”
