How did Tom Brady react to Gisele Bündchen & Joaquim Valente’s baby?
Tom Brady hasn’t made any official statements regarding his ex’s baby, but Sports Illustrated dropped an interview “ironically” timed to the baby’s birth. The ex-football player is going to be a sports commentator for Fox at Super Bowl LIX, and he talked about the challenges that he might face while talking about the sport in real time.
“I always thought it was gonna be a challenge and has certainly been that, and a very positive challenge,” Brady told the magazine. ”Part of the experience of life is challenging yourself and getting outside your comfort zone to experience new things where it can be more of a transformational experience for you. To use your voice and your vision for a live television audience, there’s a lot of adrenaline in that. It was very different from when I played where I would see all these things, I just didn’t have to verbalize them. I knew subconsciously what to do and my body just took over because ultimately, that’s how I trained it.”
Gisele Bündchen gave a rare insight into her relationship with Valente in an interview with the New York Times. “This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first,” she said. “It’s very different. It is very honest, and it’s very transparent.”
