Tom Brady shares cryptic post about love one day after Gisele Bündchen gives birth

Independent06-02-2025

Tom Brady shared a romantic message on social media one day after it was revealed that his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen had given birth.
On Wednesday, TMZ reported that the Brazilian supermodel, 44, welcomed her first baby with her boyfriend Joaquim Valente.
The seven-time Super Bowl winner took to his Instagram Story on Thursday to share a cryptic quote from a user named @larissa_raymond.
'I really think the secret to being loved is to love,' the quote read. 'And the secret to being interesting is to be interested. And the secret to have others find beauty in you is to find beauty in others. And the secret to having a friend is being a friend.'
Brady wrote over the image with three heart emojis and the words, 'Love this.'
The former New England Patriots quarterback posted another cryptic social media post shortly after his ex-wife — with whom he shares son Benjamin Rein, 14, and daughter Vivian Lake, 11 — announced she was pregnant.
Brady shared a photo of a sunset alongside The Chicks' cover of Fleetwood Mac's 'Landslide.' He included three red heart emojis over the post, as the song's emotional lyrics – written by Stevie Nicks – appeared over the image.
'Oh mirror in the sky, what is love / Can the child inside my heart rise above / Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?' the lyrics read.
While the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback didn't share an explanation for his post, it didn't take long for the internet to suggest it was in response to Bündchen's pregnancy news.
Brady and Bündchen finalized their divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage. The former couple arrived at the decision to end their marriage 'after much consideration.'
'Doing so is, of course, painful and difficult, like it is for many people who go through the same thing every day around the world,' Brady said in a social media statement at the time. 'However, we wish only the best for each other as we pursue whatever new chapters in our lives that are yet to be written.'
In her own statement, the Victoria's Secret model acknowledged that the decision to end a marriage is 'never easy,' but that she and Brady have simply 'grown apart.'
'And while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always,' she said, adding that the pair 'will continue co-parenting [their children] to give them the love, care, and attention they greatly deserve.'

A Brazilian extravaganza is taking over 10 iconic spots in Hong Kong

The summer heat is really kicking in, so why not bring in a touch of spice from Brazil? A 10-day spectacle is going to sweep into town towards the end of this month, transforming our city into a pulsating celebration worthy of Rio. Approximately 50 world-class performers from Brazil will put on samba dances, reggae drumming, capoeira martial arts, freestyle football, and more – all complemented by Brazilian food and drinks. This marks the first time that we are hosting 'Extravaganza! When Brazil Meets Hong Kong', which will take place across 10 of the city's most iconic landmarks, including Central Market, Lan Kwai Fong, Lee Tung Avenue, the Tsim Sha Tsui harbourfront, and the Wan Chai HarbourChill space. Mark your calendars for June 20 to 29 – the event's three-day grand finale will then take place at the Hong Kong Observation Wheel and AIA Vitality Park from June 27 to 29. The finale will have free admission for all, and is open from 1pm to 11pm. For those who'd like an enhanced festival, get experience package tickets on Klook, which include themed photos with costume rentals, all-you-can-drink passes, Brazilian game booths, and more.

Backstage with Shakira as we reveal the truth about her life on the road and she teases massive UK shows

Read on to learn more of the tour A LOVE SHAK Backstage with Shakira as we reveal the truth about her life on the road and she teases massive UK shows Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) 'DON'T you see, baby, this is perfection?' Shakira sings in front of a 65,000-strong crowd at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium. As she wiggles her bum and gives the audience a cheeky grin, it is hard to disagree with the Colombian superstar.

Outselling Beyonce and Lady Gaga, Shakira has hit a new stride in the five years since she last performed at the Florida venue for her Super Bowl halftime show with Jennifer Lopez, which for many artists is considered the pinnacle of their career. But now she is having the best time on the road with her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour — translated as Women No Longer Cry — which is why she invited me, Bizarre's Howell, out to Miami where she lives with her two sons. Shakira took me backstage for a UK newspaper exclusive at the first of two sold-out shows on Friday. Read More on Showbiz breaking cover Jamie Borthwick seen for the first time since EastEnders suspension After her performance, I couldn't help but tell her how much I'm looking forward to her long- rumoured UK dates next year. 'Better journey' Confirming they will indeed be happening, she says: 'I can't wait.' After giving me a massive hug, the down-to-earth and downright lovely star continues: 'You flew all this way just for me? Thank you so much.' And reflecting on the show, she beams: 'I had so much fun.' That's evident from the moment Shakira bursts on to the stage, after a film showed an AI version of the singer with a missing arm, emerging from a pile of sand and putting itself back together. That symbolism is important because this is Shakira's first tour since a torrid spell which threatened to derail not just her career but her life. Huge pop star set to make a spectacular comeback with a string of UK gigs She has been dragged through the Spanish courts over an unpaid tax bill, which was settled in November 2023. At the same time, she had a highly publicised split from former footballer Gerard Pique after 11 years together. It followed allegations he had cheated. The hurt has inspired a lot of Shakira's art. She opens the two-hour show with her 2024 song La Fuerte, which features lyrics about waking up alone and deleting an ex's number. In an empowering speech, she tells the crowd: 'Many of you know that the past years haven't been the easiest for me, right? But who doesn't have a fall here and there, right? What I've learned is that a fall isn't the end, but the beginning of an even better journey.' 10 She opens the two-hour show with her 2024 song La Fuerte Credit: Getty 10 Track La Fuerte features lyrics about waking up alone and deleting an ex's number Credit: Getty 10 Shakira balances her own turmoil with fun and froth — with a whopping 14 outfits on show Credit: Getty 10 Shakira, 48, seems to have discovered the elixir of life, because she looks and moves like someone half her age Credit: Getty And there are more nods to those difficulties in her personal life. During Te Felicit, a song in which she says congratulations to a man who has broken her heart, she tries to reprogram a dancer dressed as a male robot so that he isn't a misogynist. But he still touches her bum and turns out to be a dud in bed when she gets cosy with him in the centre of the stage. During one interlude, there are visuals of a wolf with two cubs, representing the She-Wolf singer and her sons Milan, 12, and Sasha, ten, who both lend their vocals to song Acrostico. But Shakira balances her own turmoil with fun and froth — with a whopping 14 outfits on show. For her second song, the catchy Black Eyed Peas collaboration Girl Like Me, she unzips her jacket to show a silver vest top, which she then tears off to reveal a ­glittery pink mini dress. There is a sea of lights across the stadium as fans wave their light-up wristbands in unison. And Shakira pulls on everything from sparkly bodysuits to ball gowns and bra tops. I'm told it took ten months to design the show, and given the attention to detail you can see why. At 48, Shakira seems to have discovered the elixir of life, because she looks and moves like someone half her age. By the halfway point of the concert, temperatures are 30C and I have sweat running down my face. Yet Shakira, who is marking three decades since her first headline concert, is running across the stage and twerking without so much as a moist brow. In fact, she looks even fitter and healthier than when she first became a household name in the UK in the early-Noughties. She is in tip-top form for this tour, which kicked off in February and Shakira describes as her 'most ambitious'. She is constantly working out and has two physiotherapists with her on the road. And I can attest that her backstage catering area, where I had dinner before the show, has plenty of healthy options including grilled red snapper, Peruvian chicken and cauliflower steak. A significant part of the show features Spanish-language songs, which have ­sometimes held the singer back in the UK, given most of us Brits can barely understand a word. Tender moment But as more and more non- English acts gain traction here in Blighty — such as K-Pop stars BTS and Blackpink and Spanish-speaking rapper Bad Bunny — now is her time. At the show she is joined by two special guests: Puerto Rican singer Ozuna, to perform their song Monotonia together for the first time, and Spanish Alejandro Sanz for the danceable La Tortura. During Soltera she pole- dances on a giant letter S before changing the pace for the piano-driven ballad Ultima, which she sings atop a mound of diamonds. When the tour does eventually come to our shores, it is bound to be the English language tunes that keep the audience on their feet. There's an understated rendition of her 2002 belter Underneath Your Clothes, a traditional dance with knives for her megahit Whenever Wherever, and a mass howl-along for She-Wolf, complete by a gigantic wolf image that towers over the audience. Then she throws an on-stage, multi- coloured carnival for 2010 smash-hit World Cup anthem, Waka Waka (This Time For Africa). One surprising omission from the setlist is Beautiful Liar, her 2006 collaboration with Beyonce, which topped the charts here. But in a tender moment, Shakira reveals it was her fellow artist's 2023 Renaissance tour that inspired her to organise her own. Shakira, whose North American dates were upgraded from arenas to stadiums due to overwhelming demand, explains: 'To see this place this packed, it's a dream for me. It's surreal. 'The last time I came to Hard Rock Stadium, I saw Beyonce's show and I said to myself, 'How amazing would it be if I could play the stadium one day?' 'How amazing that tonight, I'm here playing two stadiums. I have the best crowd in the world. You make all of my dreams come true.' There is no doubt that she is stronger than ever before. This show cemented Shakira as a true music icon.

Golden Tate lifts the lid on bitter on-field family feud with rival Jalen Ramsey over his pregnant sister

Former NFL star Golden Tate has opened up on his bitter on-field family feud with rival Jalen Ramsey, who previously dated the wide receiver's twin sister, Breanna Tate. When Ramsey posted a photo on social media with his new girlfriend, dancer Monica Giavanna, last October, Golden Tate responded to a fan's comment with 'he know he gonna have to see me.' Ramsey and Giavanna are now believed to have also split. And the personal animosity between the two players exploded after the October 2020 clash between the New York Giants and the Los Angeles Rams. The former Giants wide receiver and then-Rams cornerback exchanged blows near midfield and had to be separated by teammates and coaches. Tate and Ramsey walked toward each other as the game ended and both took swings before going down to the turf. TMZ also reported Ramsey also waited outside of the locker room after the game for Tate. 'Him and one of my twin sisters have two children together, they went to the same high school. They were together, I don't think my sister was done or treated the way she should have been treated,' Tate said on Bussin' with the Boys. Golden Tate explains his beef with Jalen Ramsey — Bussin' With The Boys (@BussinWTB) June 5, 2025 Former NFL star Golden Tate has opened up on his on-field family feud with rival Jalen Ramsey 'When that happens, who you gotta come see? You gotta come see big bro. We get to the game and I'm like, "I really don't know what's about to happen." But right away, he's like overly jamming me. And I'm like, "Okay, this is how we're going to do."' Ramsey now plays for the Miami Dolphins, while Tate has not taken an NFL snap since the 2020 season. On a previous episode of the FanDuel show, Ramsey has revealed the 'grimy' girlfriend trick he used while at Florida State - he would send direct messages to opposing players' girlfriends before big games. Ramsey would do his research for the underhanded and unique tactic, looking up offensive players' social-media profiles and finding photos with their significant others. Once the identity of a quarterback or wide receiver's girlfriend was evident, Ramsey got to typing. Then he would mention it on the field when helmet to helmet with the upset gridiron boyfriend. While Ramsey may no longer use social media for mental warfare, he is known as one of the NFL's biggest trash talkers, with his personal and professional lives colliding a few times on the gridiron. That led to the inventible fight with Tate and possibly more awkward encounters over the years off the field.
