All eyes have been on football star Tom Brady since he announced his departure from the New England Patriots team last month. Brady and the rest of his a-list family are used to this kind of constant attention though as they are no stranger to life in the limelight.
Naturally, fans think they have a pretty good idea of what Brady and his supermodel wife Gisele Bündchen are like behind closed doors since they’ve seen so much of the couple over the years. Brad, however, says it’s time for people to rethink their preconceived notions.

Brady recently spoke during an SiriusXM interview on April 8 and told Howard Stern that his wife is “different” from how the public perceives her to be, The New York Post reports.
Bündchen has been with hubby Brady for more than a decade now, so it’s safe to say that Brady knows his wife like the back of his hand.
“She’s probably very different than how people would probably see her, what’s been portrayed as a fashion model,” Brady said. He further revealed that his supermodel partner is a “spiritual woman.”
Brady said that his 39-year-old wife practices regular meditation and “believes in trying to heal herself.”
That personal spiritual evolution creates even more shared growth in Brady and Bündchen’s marriage and family. Brady admitted that his personal life hasn’t always been as easy as his all-star athlete life on the field, and that he shifted his focus to work on valuing family as much as football.
“There was a couple years ago, she didn’t feel I was doing my part for the family,” Brady said. “She felt like I would play football all season and she would take care of the house, and then all the sudden when the season would end, that I’d be like, ‘Great, let me get into all my other business activities. Let me get into my football training.’ And she’s sitting there going, ‘Well, when are you going to do things for the house? When are you going to take the kids to school and do that?”
Brady has since taken Bündchen’s words into consideration and has consistently worked on being a better husband and father to their kids Benjamin and Vivian. Brady also shares another son with former girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.
The 42-year-old athlete recently shared a sweet photo of him, Bündchen, and the three kids on Instagram for the Easter holiday. His caption sums up his value of family perfectly: “This Easter has been a truly unique one. I was thinking this morning of how the busyness of my life often keeps me from recognizing the most simple and joyful moments over the course of a year. Like this one; being surrounded by my family, sharing a beautiful sunset and realizing these moments are the ones that matter the most to me. Blessings from our family to yours!”
