Gisele Bundchen recently opened up on her divorce from former NFL quarterback Tom Brady in a recent interview. The fashion model called the divorce ‘the death of her dream’ and refuted the allegations that she gave an ultimatum to Brady to choose between their marriage and his sporting career. 

Speaking to Vanity Fair, Gisele said, "Listen, I have always cheered for him, and I would continue forever. If there's one person I want to be the happiest in the world, it's him, believe me. I want him to achieve and to conquer. I want all his dreams to come true. That’s what I want, really, from the bottom of my heart." 

Gisele vehemently denied that her divorce had anything to do with Tom's decision to change his mind about retiring from the NFL. Instead, she insisted that the couple's separation was the result of simply "growing apart" and realising that they desired "different things".
