Gisele Bundchen Reacts To Ex-Husband Tom Brady's Runway Debut

While their divorce was by many accounts a bit of a struggle, Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen seem to be in a better place now that they're apart from one-another. But Brady recently took a page out of Gisele's book by walking the runway at the Gucci Cruise 2027 fashion show in Times Square.

Brady was one of a number of celebrity runway walkers, with Brady wearing a leather outfit for the occasion.

Gisele famously ranked among the greatest and most famous supermodels in the entire world during her career, so naturally people were curious to get her thoughts on her ex-husband's big night.

According to Rob Shuter, an insider close to Gisele informed him that she found it "fun to watch" and knows Brady has plenty of "confidence and charisma." But Gisele was not overly impressed by his effort, asserting that runway modeling takes years of training to master.

"Gisele thought it was fun to watch," the insider said. "She knows Tom has confidence and charisma, but runway modeling is an actual skill that takes years to master."

"Her attitude was basically, ‘Good for him for trying.' Most men would never have the confidence to walk a major runway in front of the entire fashion industry."

Too harsh?

But while Gisele may have graded him harshly, another source in the industry apparently felt that Brady did a good enough job to give it a try if he simply puts in the effort.

"Tom absolutely has the look for fashion," the other source said. "But if he wants modeling to become part of his next chapter, he's definitely going to need more runway practice."

Almost anyone can do anything if they put enough effort into it. It's safe to say that Brady isn't a natural who can get out of bed and pull off a great runway walk.
