A relationship expert weighs in on Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen's divorce rumors, theorizing the possible reason behind their alleged split. The professional believes the model feels "neglected and unloved," while the NFL icon seems confused.
It's widely believed that Brady and Bündchen's misunderstanding stems from the former's decision to continue his football career after retiring last year. Hence, relationship coach Jo Hemmings sees this inconsistency may have affected their 13 years of marriage.
He explained to The Sun that being inconsistent can be confusing and unsettling in a relationship, and the famed quarterback may be unsure of what he feels and wants in his life. So, this confusion may have made his wife feel "neglected and unloved."
He added that the estranged couple also had to address their issues urgently, or they would be doomed if they didn't. He believed the only way for them to settle their differences was through proper communication and talking openly.
Hemmings explained if one of them put their career first, it could be a wake-up call "when they find that they need, or even want, to find the time to include family life in that embedded pattern." He went on to say that Brady seemed to find more reward from his profession than his personal life.
He continued that Brady might be insecure, concerned that he would lose his sense of purpose without validation and work fulfillment. The sports icon might also be afraid that others might take the role he felt was intended for him.
Hence, Brady might find it hard to find a work/life balance, not giving either of them the right time. So, even if he and Bündchen tried to mend their marriage, it might be too late.
Meanwhile, amid the divorce rumors, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers player revealed that there's "no retirement in my future" in a press conference Thursday, October 20. Several reports claimed that Brady and Bündchen had already hired divorce lawyers after the former announced his retirement and retracted his decision later.
Sources revealed that the two's friends hated that Brady wouldn't compromise and push his retirement through. Allegedly, they were upset that he returned on his word and came out of retirement.
Alternatively, Brady told Variety that he had realized he didn't have five years left, but some think he might retract his statement again. Both Brady and Bündchen remain mum about the divorce rumors surrounding them.
