Gisele Bündchen couldn’t be more proud of her hubby, NFL pro Tom Brady, after Brady announced he was retiring from football.
The 41-year-old supermodel shared an emotional post to Instagram on Tuesday celebrating the Tampa Bay quarterback’s storied athletic career.
“What a ride @tombrady!” Bündchen gushed next to a gallery packed with photos of the couple and their kids, along with pics of Brady and other athletes over the years.
“So many memories! When I met you over 15 years ago, I didn’t know the first thing about football. But cheering for you and seeing you do what you love most made me learn about this wonderful game to the point that I seriously believed I knew more than the referees!” she wrote.
“We always had a special champions playlist for every drive on our way to the game. As a family, we always prayed for you, celebrated and supported you in every game, cheered every win and suffered with every loss,” she continued.
“There is nothing you can’t achieve. I have always been here for you, you know that, and I’m as excited as you are for what the future holds!” she concluded, before writing, “Words can’t really express how grateful I am to everyone who has been so supportive of my husband and our family for so many years.”
Brady, 44, shares daughter Vivian Lake, 9, and son Benjamin Rein, 12, with Bündchen and son John “Jack” Edward, 14, with ex Bridget Moynahan.
He gave a special shout out to his family in his post on Tuesday as he announced his official retirement after 22 seasons.
Brady was drafted by the New England Patriots in 2000, and spent the first 20 seasons of his career with the team, winning six Super Bowls.
His final two seasons in the NFL were played with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who Brady led to his seventh Super Bowl victory in 2021.
