The book, available from Sept. 29, includes accounts of Brady\u2019s attempt to repair the relationship, his dramatic weight loss and the personal tensions surrounding the split. It also examines his reaction to B\u00fcndchen\u2019s life after their divorce.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"3\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>What happened when Tom Brady tried to save the marriage?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>During the 2022 Tampa Bay Buccaneers training camp, Brady asked for \u201can extended leave from camp\u201d so he could deal with personal matters and try to repair his marriage with B\u00fcndchen privately in the Bahamas.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/>The quarterback told quarterbacks coach Clyde Christensen, \u201cI\u2019ve got to take care of some personal things.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>Christensen noticed a major change in Brady and described his \u201clifeless stare.\u201d He believed the seven-time Super Bowl champion \u201cmay have been experiencing a form of psychological shock.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>\u201cSomething had blindsided him \u2014 something very bad and something that had completely devitalized the forty-five-year-old man.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>The effort ultimately did not prevent the divorce, which the couple finalized in October 2022.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/><\/p>\n<div data-pos=\"0\" class=\"id-r-component iIpbx undefined  &#10;        \">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Tom Brady and Gisele B\u00fcndchen\" msid=\"134669880\" imgsize=\"54388\" resizemode=\"4\" width=\"\" title=\"Tom Brady and Gisele B\u00fcndchen (Getty Images)\" placeholdersrc=\"https:\/\/static.toiimg.com\/photo\/83033472.cms\" offsetvertical=\"0\" placeholdermsid=\"47529300\" type=\"thumb\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/static.toiimg.com\/photo\/imgsize-54388,msid-134669880\/tom-brady-and-gisele-bndchen.jpg\" data-api-prerender=\"true\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Tom Brady and Gisele B\u00fcndchen (Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><h3>Why did Tom Brady lose so much weight?<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Brady\u2019s physical condition also raised concerns inside the Buccaneers. He arrived at training camp nearly 20 pounds lighter, leaving coaches and teammates wondering if he \u201cwas ill.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>Former Tampa Bay coach Bruce Arians told Anderson, \u201cIt was very clear that the reason for the weight loss was the stress from the personal issues he was dealing with.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>Arians added that Brady \u201clooked like a cancer patient with really good hair.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>\u201cBut his problems were clearly impacting his physical well-being,\u201d Arians said, noting that Brady \u201cprides himself on his physical condition.\u201d He described the change as \u201cjarring\u201d and said Brady \u201cjust seemed miserable, not even close to the Tom we all loved. He was so stressed.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"28\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>What reason did Gisele B\u00fcndchen reportedly give for ending the marriage?<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Anderson\u2019s book offers an unusual account of the final breakdown. <!-- -->According to the reported account, B\u00fcndchen\u2019s interest in astrology played a role in how she viewed the relationship.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"33\"\/>\u201cThen one day, Gisele, who is really into astrology, basically looked into the stars and told Tom, \u2018We\u2019re not compatible.\u2019 And just like that, she was done,\u201d the source alleges in the book.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"35\"\/>The same passage raises other possible reasons, including years of disagreements over Brady\u2019s football career and whether he had made family a sufficient priority.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"38\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Did Tom Brady respond after Gisele had her son?<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>B\u00fcndchen welcomed a son with Joaquim Valente in February 2025. Anderson writes that Brady posted an Instagram photo from UCLA\u2019s practice facility a little more than a month later.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"41\"\/>Under the image, Brady wrote, \u201cTrue Love\u201d \u2014 a phrase B\u00fcndchen had repeatedly used when describing his relationship with football.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"43\"\/>Anderson says one friend viewed the post as \u201cthe softest middle finger\u201d ever given to an ex-wife.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"45\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Was Brady hurt by B\u00fcndchen\u2019s pregnancy?<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>The book also claims Brady was \u201cstung\u201d by the timing of B\u00fcndchen\u2019s pregnancy.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"49\"\/>\u201cAccording to a friend of Brady\u2019s, he was absolutely \u2018stung\u2019 that she had become pregnant roughly two years after their divorce.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"51\"\/>B\u00fcndchen and Valente later married in a private ceremony on Dec. 3, 2025. Their son\u2019s first name has not been publicly revealed, although PEOPLE reported that his middle name is River.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"54\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Why did Brady post another message after the birth?<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Less than 24 hours after B\u00fcndchen gave birth, Brady shared another post on Instagram featuring a quote about love, friendship and finding beauty in others.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"58\"\/>\u201cI really think the secret to being loved is to love. And the secret to being interesting is to be interested. And the secret to have others find beauty in you is to find beauty in others. And the secret to having a friend is being a friend.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"60\"\/>Anderson writes that people close to Brady interpreted the post as more than a random message. \u201cMore than a few people with close ties to Brady believed they knew exactly what this was: a coded commentary on how he felt at the end of the marriage,\u201d he writes.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"62\"\/>The accounts add new context to a divorce that was publicly settled in 2022 but, according to Anderson\u2019s reporting, remained emotionally complicated for both sides.<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/nfl\/news\/tom-brady-and-gisele-bndchen-looked-picture-perfect-but-six-new-claims-reveal-the-cracks-behind-their-marriage\/articleshow\/134669828.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tom Brady&#8217;s divorce.
