“We’re almost being covered like Hollywood”: Tom Brady High-Profile Divorce With Gisele Bündchen Has Annoyed Former NFL Player As Buccaneer’s Legend Overshadows The Sport
Former Atlanta Falcons head coach Mike Smith is tired of Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen’s highly publicized divorce proceedings. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers star himself looks annoyed as he was previously spotted yelling at his teammates in a game. The head coach believes that the media is covering their divorce like Hollywood and he doesn’t like how the NFL is being perceived by the viewers. After being married for roughly 13 years, Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen have reportedly hit a rough patch. The two have hired divorce lawyers who will help them in getting through the legal process. The reason behind their split could be Brady’s dedication to the sport.
Mike Smith is not happy with the media covering the divorce
Mike Smith, who was the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons at one point, appeared on The BallFather podcast and talked about Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen’s divorce. The former coach believes that the media is covering the split like Hollywood. He said,
“I want to say about the NFL, that it changed immensely in the last four or five years. And I’ve been out now for four, but it’s, it has to do with the coverage, you know, we’re almost being covered like Hollywood. You know, the people want to write, and it’s happening with Tom Brady. Right now, they want to write about their personal lives. Look, the game is the game, and that’s what we should be reporting — that.”
The former coach thinks that the media should focus on the game rather than the NFL star’s divorce.
The former coach further said it’s Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen’s personal matter
Mike Smith further explained that the couple might feel like they are under a microscope as thousands of media outlets are covering their divorce. He said the two should be left alone so they can get through the complications in their marriage. He said,
“You know, it gets, you know, it’s gone way too far, you know, guys personal life and things like that. We don’t need to know what a guy’s doing on Friday night, or if he’s got this issue or that issue. It’s all about what they can do on Sundays, Thursdays, and Mondays right now. And, you know, I feel for the guys because they’re under a microscope. And, you know, it’s almost like the National Enquirer in some cities.”
Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen got married in January 2009 after the athlete left his then-girlfriend, Bridget Moynahan. The two share two kids Benjamin, 12, and Vivian, 9.
Why are Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen ending their marriage?
The official reason behind their split is still unclear, however, some reports say that Tom Brady’s decision to return to the sport, despite retiring in order to focus on his family, maybe the reason why Gisele Bündchen initiated the divorce process. The model has stated in the past that she expects her husband to spend more time with his family as she had to put her career on the back burner just to support his dreams.
Brady announced in February 2022 that he is retiring from American football to focus on his family. However, just six weeks later, he changed his mind as he announced that he is returning to the sport. This sudden decision did not sit well with his wife.
