Gisele Bündchen posts emotional Instagram message after Tom Brady announces retirement

Gisele Bündchen is “excited for the next chapter” now that husband Tom Brady is finally retiring after 22 years in the NFL.

The supermodel posted an emotional message on Instagram Tuesday morning, writing that Brady was “the most dedicated, focused and mentally tough person I have ever met.”

“When I met you over 15 years ago, I didn’t know the first thing about football,” Bündchen wrote. “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!
