Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen have got themselves caught up in some legal trouble.
This comes after the pair recently finalized their divorce.
Keep reading to find out why.
Brady has been under the spotlight with the NFL for a long time now.
He’s taken his team to victory in the Super Bowl 7 times.
He married a Brazilian supermodel and the love of his life Gisele Bündchen in February 2009…
And they went on to have two beautiful children, Vivian Lake Brady and Benjamin Rein — as well as Tom’s son Jack from his ex-girlfriend, Bridget Moynahan, who Bündchen calls her “bonus child.”
But it wasn’t that easy to accept the reality of Brady’s ex-girlfriend having a baby when Brady had been dating Bündchen for only 2 months…
In her 2018 book titled Lessons: My Path To A Meaningful Life, the Brazilian beauty confessed she was “hurt,” when news broke out of the pregnancy.
But things took an opposite turn when…
Bündchen revealed that “Jack helped my heart expand in ways I didn’t know was possible.”
And she has “no regrets” of being a stepmom too.
He released a statement back in January…
Saying that he’s going to be hanging his boots and helmet up.
We’re all well aware that Brady has been no stranger to controversy throughout his career.
But what football player isn’t? Brady rose to stardom after being drafted by the New England Patriots in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL draft.
He went on to make history for the team.
With a historic Super Bowl win of thirty-four to twenty-eight against the Atlanta Falcons in 2017, Brady became the first quarterback in NFL history to take home 6 Super Bowl rings.
Yet, despite his success in the field, he became wrapped up in scandals.
Remember “Deflategate?” If you don’t, Deflategate is the term that was loosely used to describe the NFL’s investigation into the New England Patriots — and, in particular, Brady — for their alleged tampering with the football inflation levels.
And the legal battle got a little messy.
Ahead of their 2014-15 AFC Championship game against the Indianapolis Colts, the Patriots were accused of under-inflating the footballs and one of the longest and most contentious legal battles in NFL history commenced.
In a Facebook post, Brady announced that he would not be continuing with the legal proceeds, and would ultimately be accepting his suspension.
The quarterback went on to sit out the first four games of the 2016-17 regular season. However, he came back in true form at the end of the season, as he and the Patriots won another Super Bowl.
But as well as being one of the world’s most famous NFL players, Brady is also a devoted father.
He has 3 children. His eldest is Jack, aged thirteen, whose mom is Bridget Moynahan, and then there’s Benjamin, eleven, and Vivian, 8, whose mom is Brady’s current wife, Gisele Bündchen.
And they’re such an adorable family.
Brady regularly posts updates of him and his family, who comes down to support him during his games.
But now, it seems as though the couple is to split up.
According to New York Post, both parties attained divorce lawyers.
Both have been left wondering how they will divide their multi-million dollar empire.
An unknown source told Page Six, “I don’t think there will be any coming back now. They both have lawyers and are looking at what a split will entail, who gets what and what the finances will be.”
Sources have said that the pair are assessing how they would split up their $26 million property following the divorce.
Reports suggest the couple most recently bought a $17 million property on Indian Creek Island in Miami.
The pair also own several other homes…
One is a luxury Tribeca building in New York City, which is worth $3.6 million.
Another is a $5.7 million property at Mike Meldman’s exclusive Yellowstone club in Montana.
It’s been reported that Bündchen is staying with the kids whilst Brady is living elsewhere amid the divorce.
And shocking new revelations have come to light…
Bündchen had been liking some rather shady social media posts!
Eagle-eyed fans spotted the post on Instagram.
It read: “You can’t be in a committed relationship with someone who is inconsistent with you. Read that again.”
Bündchen herself had commented on it with the prayer hands emoji.
She then reportedly made one final plea to Brady to try and save their marriage.
“Gisele told Tom either he leaves football to spend time with the family or she is gone for good,” an insider told US Weekly.
“She doesn’t want him to continue to get injured and not be able to enjoy life in the future,” the source continued. “She is doing it for her family.”
Sadly, her plea doesn’t appear to have worked, as sources have shared that they have now signed their divorce documents.
Meaning they have both reached a settlement bringing their marriage to an end.
Sources told TMZ that Bündchen is working with a spiritual healer to help her through this tough time.
While Brady is trying to stay afloat with the Buccaneers, who have had a pretty tough time as of late, losing 3 games in a row.
But even so, Brady has admitted he’s doing his best to cope in his personal life and his professional life.
“I’ve always tried to do the best I could do here, and then when I leave here, I try to do the best I could do, and that’s what we all try to do.
“I’m sure everyone sitting in this room, sitting at home, just trying to wake up every day doing the best they could do for their families and their career, and I’m no different,” he said.
Bündchen also seems to be doing well as she was recently spotted going out on a date.
And the new man in question is someone who’s been a big part of Bündchen’s life for a while.
Making their supposed relationship look a bit fishy.
The news is also quite sudden considering the pair only split a few weeks ago.
And fans have been left shocked…
Many questioned her faithfulness in her marriage with Brady prior to the split.
One wrote: “No way he is a new man in her life. Especially with her kids appearing so comfortable with him and her having them around him at all. Quite confident she cheated for quite a while with this guy.”
While another commented: “Yeah, I knew there was another reason she wanted to divorce Tom Brady. It was way too obvious. Good luck to her.”
“He chose football over his family. He chose Ego. She definitely stepped up her game,” a third wrote.
Bündchen was seen wearing a cropped top and flowing black pants on the date with her new man…
While he was seen wearing a gray shirt and shorts.
And it turns out the man in question is her Jiu-Jitsu instructor!
Back in February, she thanked him (Joaquim Valente) on her Instagram page for helping her learn the martial art.
And now, according to Page Six, Bündchen and Valente appear to be an item.
The pair reportedly went for food at Koji in Provincia de Puntarenas with Bündchen’s 2 kids.
But now, it seems like Bündchen and Brady have got themselves caught up in some legal trouble.
And it’s all because of some commercials they were featured in.
Over the past few years, the pair have been featured in many FTX commercials.
Since Brady’s run in featuring at the FTX commercials, the relationship he has with the founder Sam Bankman-Fried seemed pretty good.
In case you’re wondering, FTX is a cryptocurrency exchange company based in the Bahamas.
It was founded in 2019, and by 2021, it had more than a million users.
Since the news broke of the potential lawsuit, Bündchen and Brady deleted anything related to FTX from their social media pages.
It comes after an attorney, named David Boies, filed the lawsuit on behalf of Edwin Garrison.
Garrison is a resident of Oklahoma who had an FTX account which he funded with crypto assets to earn interest.
The lawsuit stated: “Part of the scheme employed by the FTX Entities involved utilizing some of the biggest names in sports and entertainment.
“Pouring billions of dollars into the Deceptive FTX Platform to keep the whole scheme afloat.”
The major lawsuit for FTX came after thousands of people were unable to withdraw their money from the platform.
As well as a $50 billion liability.
But it’s not just Brady and Bündchen who are in hot water, anyone who’s had a relationship with the company is on the verge of getting sued.
