“He’s getting a little old, isn’t he?”: Tom Brady Takes A Cheeky Dig At Cristiano Ronaldo, Who Allegedly Caused His Divorce With Gisele Bündchen, Amid His Bad Form In Manchester United
Tom Brady trolled footballer Cristiano Ronaldo in a recent World Cup commercial. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback and the footballer have been friends for a very long time now. There are even rumors that it was Cristiano Ronaldo who convinced the NFL star to rethink his retirement decision. Fans wonder if the subtle dig at the footballer is because Tom Brady’s marriage eventually took a hit because of his suggestion. The NFL star announced his retirement after the 2021 season but returned to the field just six weeks later. On the other hand, the anticipation for the FIFA World Cup is at an all-time high as the tournament begins on November 20th, 2022.
Tom Brady trolled Cristiano Ronaldo
In the latest FIFA World Cup commercial, which also features Jon Hamm, Ellie Kemper, and Mariah Carey, Tom Brady took a dig at Cristiano Ronaldo pointing out that he is now too old for the sport. In the commercial, the Manchester United star can be seen scoring a set-piece goal, then the quarterback appears, eating a stick of celery in a kitchen, and says, “He’s getting a little old, isn’t he?”
Fans wonder if the remark comes because Cristiano Ronaldo was the one who asked him to reconsider his retirement decision. Tom Brady’s decision to come back to the sport did not sit well with his wife, Gisele Bündchen, as she is now reportedly filing for a divorce from the NFL star.
Cristiano Ronaldo met Tom Brady after he announced his retirement
Back in February, Tom Brady announced that he is retiring from American Football as he wants to focus on his family. Shortly after that, he went to watch Cristiano Ronaldo at the Old Trafford stadium with his two sons. After the game, Brady met the footballer and had a conversation with him on the pitch.
Sources say that the footballer asked the NFL star, “You’re finished right?” to which Brady gestured as if he is unsure about his decision. Just 24 hours after this conversation, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers star announced that he is returning to the field.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers star announced on February 1st, 2022 that he is retiring from the sport because he wants to focus on his family, but roughly 40 days later, he announced that he is returning to the field. His wife was not happy as the athlete’s dedication to the sport neglected his family.
