Gisele Bündchen admits 'concerns' over Tom Brady’s return to NFL, says she wishes he could be ‘more present'
Gisele Bündchen said she wishes her husband Tom Brady could be "more present" in their family’s life while adding that she has concerns about the NFL legend’s return to the sport after prematurely announcing his retirement earlier this year. "Obviously, I have my concerns – this is a very violent sport, and I have my children and I would like him to be more present," she told Elle magazine in the October issue. She agreed with the interviewer that media reports that she’s desperate to have the quarterback retire are sexist - "I think this is the system we’ve been living in.That’s what society has accepted and what society hasn’t accepted – but admitted she’s had "conversations with him over and over again" about his continuing to play at 45 years old. "But ultimately, I feel that everybody has to make a decision that works for [them]. He needs to follow his joy, too," she said of her husband who has seven Super Bowl rings.
