LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Tom Brady reportedly shed 15 pounds after his divorce from Gisele Bundchen. A "deeper look" into the turbulent previous year of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback, both on and off the football field, led ESPN reporter Jeff Darlington to break the news of Brady's drastic weight loss.

"Tampa Bay’s team struggled this season. There is no doubt the offense never clicked … but Brady also knows his mental focus was gone for a bulk of the [NFL] season," Darlington said in a video he tweeted on Thursday, January 26. "His physical stature, faced with 15 pounds of weight loss, was also in peril." The TV host added, "[Brady] felt at times like his pre-season anguish ended his chances at success before the regular season had even started."

Meanwhile, Bundchen was having a field day with her husband's penalties following a humiliating loss to the Dallas Cowboys. "Gisele was mocking the way Tom played after his team was beaten by the Dallas Cowboys. She’d told him he was too old to play anymore, and his decision to come back for another season was the reason she dumped him," mentioned Radar Online.

While Brady withered away in mental agony, Bundchen joyfully welcomed the new stage of life. Bundchen was recently spotted having a blast with her friends and children. There were also other reports of the model being seen with a new partner.



 



 

After 13 years of marriage, Brady and Bundchen divorced in October 2022. They released separate statements announcing their divorce. "In recent days my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage," Brady wrote in his Instagram stories on October 28, 2022. "We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together. We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way. We will continue to work together as parents to always ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve."



 

Bundchen posted, "To end a marriage is never easy but we have grown apart. I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always." The pair has two children, Benjamin and Vivian, whom they intend to co-parent together.
