Report: Brady and Gisele are Divorcing

[PatsWSB47]

Speaking of Catholic institutions, one weighs in on the topic of this thread:

But the couple, both baptized Catholic, persevered and were married on Feb. 26, 2009, at St. Monica Catholic Church in California. Thirteen years later, Brady took to social media to announce, “In recent days, my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage.” He went on to say they “arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together.” ​

​

But last week, the story changed, with Brady saying he didn’t want his children to have “divorced parents,” highlighting the impact such a decision has on children. ​

​

As Catholics, we know that divorce is always tragic but even more so considering the trauma that children endure in the process. Divorce can inflict so many “primal wounds” in children who get lost in the shuffle and selfishness of divorce. ​

Some marriages are irreparable and its worse for kids for the parents to continue it regardless of intentions "You think you know but you don't know" to quote coach Mora. Why are you so obsessed with the finger pointing blame game? All right already. We hear you.....often.

I agree, that could be the case. It could also be the case years from now that one or both feel they should have tried harder to save the marriage. I've seen instances of both, some times within the same relationship! I know of a few couples who got married young, broke up thinking it was for the best, eventually re-married, some times after having other spouses in the interim! I know of one couple that divorced each other twice and married each other three times (hint: it's the parents of a famous actor whose autobiography is now a NY Times bestseller).

Why are you so obsessed with the finger pointing blame game? All right already. We hear you.....often.

I didn't point a finger, I just posted an article, one that some may or may not find interesting. There are other perspectives, you know, but thanks for the gratuitous insult.

My uncle married a Catholic woman who insisted their children go to Catholic schools, so my cousin of my same age went to the area Catholic high school while I went to a local public high school. All it really meant was that they wore ties and his friends had better drugs than mine did. He told me of one kid who was being given a daily allowance that was >10x the cost of school lunch. The money he didn't spend on lunch went to cocaine. Whatever the drug's side effects were, scholastic achievement was not one of them.

The concern is the stricter you are, the more things you make taboo, the more you make bad behavior a temptation. Some knuckle under and resist, some break free and go nuts. The thing is, sooner or later they have to manage on their own, without all the artificial boundaries in place.

One thing I noticed is once kids leave strict Catholic schools, they tend to go nuts. I saw this at high school when various kids who started in Catholic schools either didn't make it into the area Catholic high school, or got bounced out for various reasons. Once they were out of that strict environment, they were really, really wild. I saw the same thing at my public university: kids from strict private schools away from home for the first time went nuts. People who came from public schools who made it into college had already figured out how much socializing/partying they could do while still keeping up or even excelling at school.

This may be one of the most ludicrous things I’ve read on the internet, and that’s saying something.

I forgot, your world view is the only one that's relevant.

So the gossip now is that Giselle was cheating on Brady and sleeping with her ju-jitsu instructor for a while. And well, the circumstantial evidence is not great for her.

So the gossip now is that Giselle was cheating on Brady and sleeping with her ju-jitsu instructor for a while. And well, the circumstantial evidence is not great for her.

All the NYP article says with regard to timing is:

While there were signs her relationship with Brady was on the rocks weeks before the ultimate split, it’s unclear when Bündchen’s romance with Joaquim sparked.​

It also says:

Along with Valente’s brothers, Pedro and Guilherme, Joaquim and the former Victoria’s Secret model did a photo shoot for Dust Magazine — and the images were just re-shared on the Valente Brothers’ Instagram page four days ago.​

​

In fact, the Valente Brothers were even Bündchen’s instructors, whom she called “awesome teachers,” earlier this year.​

​

“I believe the more tools we have in our toolbox the better,” Bündchen wrote on Instagram at the time. “I feel stronger, more confidence and empowered since I started practicing self-defense. I feel it’s an important skill for all, but specially for us women.”​

She was clearly telling Tom that there were more tools in her box, he was too busy with football to pick up on what she was saying!

Tom says everything is cool:

Meanwhile, Gisele has bought a $11.5M mansion right across the bay from him:

Gisele Bündchen has reportedly picked up a Miami Beach home for $11.5 million, and it just so happens to be right across the way from Tom's mansion.

Seems the idea is the kids can go back and forth between the homes easily. Hope they learn to knock first!

Distraught that G turned down my offer of a home across the water from mine South of Tamper.

On the plus side you won't have to watch the kids.

Oftentimes couples who are separated allow for each to date others during the separation while the final divorce is still pending. So if it turns out Gisele started seeing this guy in, say, August or September then it might not necessarily have been cheating.

So do the people in this thread who flipped out about Brady ruining his family give a mea culpa if it turns out Giselle was cheating on him first?

Nah they think it's funny

Isn't makeup supposed to smooth out the turkey neck wrinkles?

 

[denverpatsfan]

WTF is this thing? I'm calling the mods!

 

[VectorPrime]

Nah they think it's funny

Well that seems a tad hypocritical.

 

[Boomer B]

Pretty sad for her to be dating this quick after the divorce, especially with her young kids seeing it.

 

[Bella*chick]

But she says they’re not dating.

And anyway, according to some here, Brady was supposed to have “traded up” by now. No one seemed to have an issue with that concept.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

So Giselle’s dating her instructor? I say to go ahead and step out with Alex Guerrero because two can play that game.

We'd never hear the end of it from the "Brady is gay" Jete fans.

No. They would turn around and blame Brady for her unfaithfulness.
