We couldn\u2019t help checking the Bucs box score each week, and suddenly, Bill Belichick\u2019s cutoff hoodie and gruff press conferences weren\u2019t all that interesting. When Brady won a Super Bowl in his first season with Tampa Bay, we all were thinking what his wife, Gisele B\u00fcndchen, said to him on the podium, \u201cWhat more do you have to prove?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yet, he returned from his retirement this summer, and in recent days, our hero\u2019s been under fire with rumors of a divorce brewing. Of course, these are only rumors, and even if the divorce attorneys are hired and they are living apart, nothing is certain. Vanessa Bryant filed for divorce from Kobe in 2011, and then they patched things up and were happily married until his tragic death.<\/p>\n<p>Beneath the glamor of an NFL star\/Victoria\u2019s Secret supermodel couple, Brady and B\u00fcndchen\u2019s issues are very normal. His wife wants him to spend more time with her and the kids and give her a chance to do something outside the home. He has a demanding job that he loves and doesn\u2019t want to give up.<\/p>\n<p>More than simply, \u201cit\u2019s Gisele\u2019s turn now,\u201d this spat shows how integral she\u2019s been to Brady\u2019s success. She didn\u2019t just let him have a turn; she propelled him forward. She helped make him the GOAT. Now, Brady needs to pull off his greatest comeback yet: saving his marriage.<\/p>\n<p>That comeback would help the Bucs get on track, too. Researchers have found that married men <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aei.org\/research-products\/report\/for-richer-for-poorer-how-family-structures-economic-success-in-america\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">make more money and are generally more responsible, sociable, and diligent than their <\/a>unmarried counterparts. Furthermore, a conscientious spouse that limits household drama has a noticeable effect on the other half\u2019s income, promotion rate, and job satisfaction. Might <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/tom-brady-gisele-b-ndchens-142600649.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the \u201ccocoon\u201d that his wife Gisele made in Boston<\/a> to support him and his family account, in part, for his remarkable run with the Pats?<\/p>\n<p>While all people have a dip in life satisfaction as they approach middle age, this dip is less pronounced in married men. For men whose wife is also their best friend, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nber.org\/papers\/w20794\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this well-being effect is nearly doubled<\/a>. Might marrying and deeply loving a supermodel give Brady resilience as well as someone who can cut his ego down to reasonable-for-all-time-great size? Might that make him a better teammate, a better leader?<\/p>\n<p>Consider the years Gisele weathered with Brady. When they first began dating in 2007, Brady had already won three Super Bowls, but in the following years, he\u2019d suffer a torn ACL and two gut-wrenching Super Bowl losses to Eli Manning and the Giants in 2007 and 2011. These are the sorts of tragedies that can derail not only a career but a relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, she supported him and his family. In his words, \u201cwithout her, there\u2019s no way I could be doing what I\u2019m doing.\u201d He found a second wind (at the ripe age of 37), going on to win four more Super Bowls and cementing his GOAT status. Conversely, we have watched Tiger Woods, who seemed well on his way to catching Jack Nicklaus\u2019s record, over the past years suffer a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biography.com\/news\/tiger-woods-sex-scandal-facts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">marital collapse<\/a> that precipitated a series of <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2021\/03\/01\/tiger-woods-may-have-fallen-asleep-at-wheel-experts-suggest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bizarre accidents<\/a> and injuries he has never recovered from. The personal and professional are intertwined.<\/p>\n<p>While everyone mentions that Gisele is a supermodel, she also speaks five languages, left home at 14, lived in Japan at 16, and then moved to New York at 17 (without speaking English). She is smart and capable, and as we learned after the loss in Super Bowl XLVI, she\u2019s got a quick wit. When a drunk fan yelled, \u201cEli owns your husband!\u201d She fired back: \u201cMy husband cannot f-cking throw and catch the ball at the same time!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As the Bucs sit at 2-2, after dropping two big games against Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes, it\u2019s hard not to wonder whether Brady\u2019s suffering as B\u00fcndchen withdraws the support she\u2019s offered the past 13 years. No one can understand a marriage unless they are in it. However, what we do know can serve as a wake-up call to all of us.<\/p>\n<p>As we see yet again that beauty, wealth, and success don\u2019t solve a relationship, we might as well face our problems now instead of waiting for a change in circumstance. Brady must be asking the same sorts of questions we all ask ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>How can we focus on the ones we love when our time and attention are pulled in a million directions? How do we keep turning toward our partner as the years go by and our marriage needs renewal? I want Tom Brady to stay with Gisele, and I want him to win another ring, but I think he may need the former to accomplish the latter. Otherwise, this season and this marriage may both end in disappointment.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<p>\n  Ben Christenson writes from Fairfax, VA with his family and 4 dogs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Tom Brady left New England after 20 years to play for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, many of us found out we weren\u2019t Patriots fans, we were Brady fans.
