Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen hire divorce lawyers, sources say

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen seem to be heading for the end zone: Both have retained divorce lawyers, multiple sources tell Page Six exclusively.

As previously revealed, the couple has been living separately for the past couple months following an epic fight — and they’re now apparently looking at dividing up their multi-million-dollar empire.

“I never actually thought this argument would be the end of them, but it looks like it is,” one source in the know told Page Six this week.

“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.”

Reps for Brady and Bündchen did not respond to requests for comment.

Insiders say both Brady and Bündchen are committed to their children, Benjamin (from left), Jack — Brady's son with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan — and Vivian.

Insiders close to the seven-time Super Bowl champ, 45, and the supermodel, 42, say both are very involved in their children’s lives and would share joint custody in any separation.

They share son Benjamin, 12, and daughter Vivian, 9, and Brady is also the father of son Jack, 15, with ex Bridget Moynahan.

The couple had been building a home on Indian Creek Island, nicknamed "Billionaires Bunker," in Miami, but construction has halted.

The couple would likely file in Florida, as that’s where they are primarily based, legal experts said. Another source who knows the couple confirmed they are now looking at dividing their assets, which includes a $26 million property portfolio.

From 2021 to 2022, Brady’s estimated overall net worth swelled from $180 million to $250 million. In May, Forbes reported he is now the ninth-highest-paid athlete in the world, with endorsement deals including Under Armour, Sam Adams, Foot Locker and Tag Heuer.

As Page Six first reported in December 2020, their most recent property purchase was a $17 million home on Indian Creek Island in Miami, nicknamed “Billionaires Bunker.” They planned to knock down the 5,172-square-foot, five-bedroom mansion on the two-acre lot and build a new one.

But work has recently stalled on the property amid the marriage fall-out.

The couple also own a condo at 70 Vestry Street in Tribeca, valued at $3.6 million, as well as a $5.7 million property at developer Mike Meldman’s Yellowstone Club in Montana.

Bündchen’s favorite property is believed to be their remote home on the Nicoya Peninsula in Costa Rica, where the family often vacations.

Ahead of Hurricane Ian, the pair both fled Tampa, where Brady is playing for the Buccaneers, and went to Miami, where they have been staying apart. Bündchen has been spotted there over the past few days.

A source told us that Bündchen has been staying in the Miami home that she and Brady rented in 2020; it’s not clear where Brady was holed up.

Although sources close to Bündchen have stressed that it is “sexist” to say the split is over the model’s issues with Brady reneging on his retirement, the source in the know said: “As with many marriages, it’s not just one thing. Gisele has made it clear that she worried about Tom playing football, and that they had had many talks about it. 

“But they have had a series of blow-ups over the past few years, and this time it looks like there’s no going back.”
