…my husband and I had a wonderful life together…5 years of courtships…25 years of bliss…he loved me…and I loved him…we never disrespected each other….never…I wanted him to be happy……always …….he past away and is still with me….always!
After working with many high profile people... what the media says and what is actually going on is rarely portrayed accurately. The true travesty are the children... how tragic that they are rarely mentioned or considered. The people who"have it all" did not have it all... together. No envy here... my low profile life suits me just fine and then some.
The children are rarely considered when their parents divorce. Be real. The pain and suffering it’s so great that it becomes all about self preservation. Consideration for the children becomes secondary. A spouse, on either side, can break the other down so far that there can be no other consideration but permanent separation.
Dr. Laura transformed my life from being naive on humanity, to understanding them within just a few minutes of conversation. She is amazing, unique, gifted and I will always treasure the path of understanding she initiated in me...from that point, plenty of knowledge has been gained of the ways of humanity. She is a distinct gamechanger in my life for the better. Thank you, Dr. Laura!
Great choice in a guest. I used to listen to Dr. Laura on radio and she usually hits the nail on the head and sometimes it's not what someone wants to hear. Hope she visits your channel again.
I LOVE dr Laura and appreciated hearing y’all’s perspectives! My husband and I have been together for 16 years and married for 13 and you’re spot on about the sacrifice aspect… this was a good reminder as well… marriage takes effort!🙏🏻
Marriage takes effort from both involved not only from the woman's side. Agreeing with a man who wishes to follow his dream for as long as he wants to while the woman is raising his kids like a single mother is that what you call sacrifice? What if it was Gisele who was putting her career first and family second then all of those women would have been mom-shaming her for not prioritizing her family. Some are accusing her of cheating but what if it was tom who had cheated on her? Society would have blamed her for his action since she wasn't spending enough time with him and made him feel lonely. As they say “a man has his needs” Women are always to blame. The sacrifices most women talk about they are the ones making the majority of them. Not every woman wants to play single mother while their men are too busy chasing their dream. Just like being a husband and father isn't enough to fulfill a man it is the same for women. She put her career on a hiatus for 10 years just to be there for him now it's time for her to also fulfill her desires without being mom-shame. A couple needs to give each other the chance to fulfill themselves outside of their marriage and children. It is give and take
@@bendover3653 the average men want to become successful so they can “spend more time with the family” while a man who is 45 years years old with WAYYY more money than the average men refuses to retire so he can do his husbandly and fatherly duty like the rest of his kind. While his wife for the sake of being there for him and his children took a 10 years hiatus from a career that solemnly focus on her beauty which fades with age. Why should you ask? Well so he can be more present and active in the life of his wife and children . So he can now support his wife’s dream so as she been supporting his. Marriage is a 100 percent support they say , well , now it’s time for him to show his support.
Megyn, I have been married for 62 years, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors, none of us are in a position to be judgmental. only saying/ 💗💗💗
Marriage is not 50-50. That's a Contract. Marriage is 100-100: a Covenant! Not, you give me this and I'll give you that, but rather, I give you all of me and you give me all of you.
@@gracenmercy579 that is what our Priest said when we were getting married and those words will always resonate with me…you have to give 100% in a marriage not 50% and the other person has to give 100% as well to make a marriage work.. I truly and honestly believe that I repeat those words to my children I don’t know where this 50-50 came from but 100% and 100% is dead on.. 30 years later and I think of those words more than I think of anything marriage is tough and you have to work 100% give 100% and so does your spouse and you know what sometimes one of you faulted and hurts a little bit but as long as the other one loves you enough and is working 100% and gets you back up there there’s no other thing better than loving a good marriage…I’m not talking about cheating or mental or physical abuse but the little things the little things are nothing when you are giving 100% and so is the other person that’s love people
Thomas, I totally agree. Let us also notice how quickly she moved on which simply means she never intended to save the marriage. It's so sad how many of these people can process their undying love yet the minute they don't get what they want they're gone.
@@lydiapicano8806 I find it funny how the 100 percent falls on the woman to fulfill but not the man. She had already sacrifice her career so he fully focus on his and when the time came for him to allow to focus on her career again he chose her ultimatum which was his marriage or football.
For some reason there's sexism in your statement. I will give you my all she did that but he wasn't willing to give her his all because his career came first.
One rumor is that the marriage was pretty much done before he un-retired. Once Tom realized it was not repairable, he put his $300+mil broadcast deal with Fox on hold and play another season in the NFL for ~$12mil so the $300+mil would not be up for grabs during the divorce 🤔
I love Margaritas but when I drink a few may get a little mouthy thus my wife does not like it much when I drink them. She said I don’t care what you drink, which is not much or often, but I don’t like it when you drink Margaritas. We been married almost 18 years and I love Margaritas but I love my wife way more so when she said that I promised her I would never drink another one and I have not and will not. She did not ask me to make that promise but my relationship with her and love for her means far more to me. Now that is a small thing and I could have said to her deal with it but then that would make me a prick and extremely selfish. Couples must compromise in a relationship and find out what is most important. I can’t imagine life without her and would be devastated but life without Margaritas is just great and I don’t miss them. Another great show. By the way Megyn I watched you on Fox News and loved your show but that was mostly political I so much love you more on this platform.
@@marilena7848 Thank you. There is a 23 year difference in our ages me 71 but according to people I look 50 and my wife 48 she also looks younger than she is and we have a 16 year old beautiful daughter. God has blessed us both and we work very well together because it just works when you find the right one. Thanks again.
My 22 year marriage looked great on the outside, but once inside no one saw the verbal, mental, emotional abuse. I couldn’t anymore and walked away from my husband.
@@m.e.d.7997 it isn’t about “marriage”, it is about the people. If you find the right person, it is organic. Even if it ends, for some reason, doesn’t mean it wasn’t worthwhile, or that you didn’t share very positive experiences with that person. You don’t have to be “for” or against “marriage”. This is such a simplistic, and needlessly limiting perspective.
@@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied Some people are much happier single and unmarried. Never said I was against marriage but with the right mate. Some people find that but many others are not that lucky. Being alone therefore can be a happy life. You do not need to be in a marriage to exist live and be happy.
25 years ago as a teenager I was listening to Dr Laura on AM radio. It was an influence on me. I never married. 😆 No, but I have had an interest in counseling ever since and was able to successfully help some folks with simpler problems.
I knew they wouldn't last from the very beginning: he left his pregnant girlfriend to get with Gisele. That showed me that they were jerks: he for abandoning his gf and child, and she for dating such a man with no empathy for the abandoned pregnant gf
Bridget Moynihan didn't know she was pregnant when they broke up. It obviously wasn't working. He was dating someone new. Not ideal, but I don't see how it works at that point.
Awww Dr Laura! As I procastinate getting up today... I'm ready to go and "take on the day" Miss you in 640 Dr. Laura! You've helped me so much throughout the years!🙏🏻🙌🌠
Giselle is the Tom Brady of modeling. She is a very successful woman. She has been open and vocal about her reservations with Tom Brady playing football including the damage to his body and brain. She cared about his health and him being there for their kids. It also seems like she wanted a turn pursuing her interests. Giselle had a home in Costa Rica for years well before she met Tom. A marriage is a partnership and it looks to me like Gisele did her part
@@BradSabako when your husband constantly chooses his career over his family don’t you blame her for leaving? Maybe this divorce will finally open his eyes with having 50/50 custody he’ll pay more attention to his family because Giselle is not there to pick up the slack and hopefully he’ll see that he needs to do what’s best for his health and living a long life to be there for his kids.
@@caribanna yes I blame her she married a football player, and he’s still at the top of his game, and Kay scale. She’s already checked out because she wants a new guy, period. She monkey branched out to her karate teacher before he’s ugh Tom, so that’s bad. She’s says she’s leaving him because she wants more time with him… yet … she’s heaving him!!! See the irony?
@@BradSabako there is no irony. He’s practically left going away to games and training for a decent chunk of the year therefore not spending more time with his family. So yeah if he wants to spend more time on the road than with his family she made the decision easier for him. He can rest easy doing his career. He’s 45 years old, he should’ve properly retired while he was on top. He’s not as good as he was and he’s holding on to an unrealistic goal. She expected this athlete lifestyle to have an expiry date which is very understandable. Football is not for forever. It’s all rumours and speculation that she’s dating her martial arts teacher. All sources say it’s false sooo do with that what you will. Celebs fly their trainers out all the time I don’t get how this somehow makes things a different situation.
She didn't know it was coming! She thought they were happy just like Megyn said she did. Scientology convinced Tom to divorce her. I'm so glad she found Keith ❤
Dr. Laura said it beautifully "I love you and I want you to be happy, so this is what I'm giving to you. *It's a gift* You don't get resentful about heartfelt gift." I love how Kelly goes "Hmm.."
He said he was going to retire. Which meant more time with his wife and family. Then he reneged. She was raising his children likely mostly by herself. Perhaps they made this agreement and he didn't follow through.
Please. People with hundreds of millions of dollars have housekeepers, cooks, nannies, etc. She got to do the things she wanted and delegated the rest to the hired help.
What does that have to do with his promise to retire and spend more time with his wife and his OWN children. She seems to have spent time with her children, he did not. It was sporadic. People can have help, and still spend quality time with their children.
He had one good year left on his career. She wouldn’t let him have it? She was cheating for years. She didn’t want him around after his career was over. She was just being a @unt.
Three things: (1) Forgive and forget, (2) compromise, and (3) stay clean and healthy. If you can do that, you can stay together forever. That applies to any relationship.
True. & here I am, extremely educated, zero debts, 5 homes; all paid for, animal lover, I donate $$$, I volunteer & have served the homeless, I speak 3 languages, I still look like a Prize Fighter. My fiancée dies in '14, & I haven't been the same since. I guess it must be that I have zero tolerance for stupidity or lack of common sense.
@@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied is favored a better word for you? We have been protected from being bothered by other people's opinions of us. I would love to tell you Who "blessed or favored" us but, we can't reveal that information due to it being protected under law.
Thank you Megyn & Dr Laura. I really liked when Dr. Laura said not to compare your ongoing video of your life with somebody else's snapshot of theirs.👏👏
I think the same need is in private marriages, to make everything look okay to outsiders. It's exacerbated in public marriages, but it's common in many, many marriages. Comparison happened before, that's where "Keeping up with the Jones's" came from. These are not new issues. No one knows what happens in a marriage except the two people in it, and sometimes they don't either.
Imagine if Giselle was doing modeling shows following her dream-like Tom she would probably not have been able to attend the majority of his games. When that happens society would have called her the “unsupportive wife” who places her career before her family and not being there to support her husband. Yet when she asks Tom to put his career on a hiatus to be there for her society still calls her the “unsupportive wife” who wants her husband to give up his career so she can follow hers. In all women are still the ones required to make the sacrifices needed to make the marriage work. They can't give men an ultimatum because as the lady said “ in marriage, you can't keep track of the sacrifices you make” Women are expected to sacrifice out of love and are not required to hold them against their husbands. All the while they are supposed to be always grateful for their husband doing the bare minimum. Although women have been fighting for equal pay a lot of them still consider working to be a choice and for that reason society always supports men who complain about their wives putting their careers first and family second while the same society supports men who place more importance on their career than their family and guilt shame women who require their husband to do otherwise.
You nailed it. All these men criticizing Gisele are projecting their own bitterness from their life experience onto the situation. Gisele was the most concerned about her family and Tom Brady wanted to be Peter Pan. If I was Gisele I would divorce his sorry ass too.
Why would this cause a divorce? If they both invested, like idiots, clearly, than they both go down together. I don’t know why divorce would be an assumed outcome. I mean certainly, there is no way they could have both been, so stupid, as to invest everything into crypto? Bitcoin, on the other hand, I would understand, in which case they would be sitting pretty, very soon…but crypto? Good God.
Such a great conversation to bring up! Megan Kelly is legit! And good to hear from Dr. Laura. And 10/10 it wasn't only him giving up football. It was all the "perks" Tom received with it from women to time away from her.
I truly believe Giselle was keeping score on who gave more in their marriage. Marriage is never 50/50. Someone always sacrifices more and neither were willing to do that because of their super egos. This is very common when both have equal fame and fortune. Brad & Angelina, Tom & Nicole etc..
We don't even know what they promised each other when getting married. Did he promised to slow down working at some point.... did he swear he would love to be involved with his kids activities at some point, did he promise to slow down so she could have more time to focus on her work at one point... Who knows And bviously if you don't do anything for the marriage you don't need to keep scores. So should the person who get screwed just shut up until she gets a breakdown or cheat or should that person speak up and see if the partner is willing or not to finally also make an effort. At least she spoke, she tried they still did not agree so then she said she is done and moved on. At least she was honest, better than playing mind games or living a double life for years which many men prefer doing and which is the worst for kids.
she was keeping score of the number of sacrifices she made and decided to give him an ultimatum which was for him to also sacrifice something and yet he couldn’t even do that. He chose to sacrifice his marriage than to give up football he was the one who made the final decision.
My exact thoughts....him wanting to play another season is not a good enough reason for divorce. Him beating the crap out of her and she is sleeping around etc.. now that are deal breakers. This is just a pissing contest from two spoilt brats who had the wind in their backs for their whole adult lives.
How can you know it was not enough? Do you know them? Do you know how was her life while he is out for most time to play football with his buddies? Goodness
Had a friend who got married. My husband knew them a little, just socially. As we left the wedding, he said, they'll be divorced in a year. He was right...asked how he could make this assessment...he simply stated that "he could tell". The husband moved out while she was at work. She just could not let go. She actually began semi stalking him. Cane to his place of work, to his apt and to his families home. I begged her to get counseling and let the poor guy alone. The next thing I knew...he committed suicide. So very sorry for them both. They should have never been married.
Whenever the wedding is all about the show, it won't last. They wake up the day after, look around, and think "now what?". Now the planning and parties and attention are over. Now the work begins. So many can't make the transition.
“I could tell” is a terrible, terrible assessment from an alleged doctor. That’s just gut feeling. A doctor is meant to be rational and logical, even with emotions. Assessments come from tangible elements that can be expressed. Your example is also daft I’m afraid. I’ll explain why. Say 24 people at that wedding, half of them think the marriage will last, half don’t. Of the half that don’t they guess the month the marriage will end…each with a different month. One of them would be right and 23 will be wrong. The one that was right thinks they are some genius predicting it, they are not.. they are oblivious to the number of false assessments which is a concept about “ignoring negative data”.
It's strange hearing about this story. Gisele wanted the marriage, now it's over. Now Gisele is with someone else already. Disgusting. Sorry, these celebs are way too fast with their partner switchings.
Its true. In general women want to get married but they are the ones who initiate most divorces and end most relationships. It is sad but its the reality and the truth and knowing the truth as a men will set you free. Most women monkey branch in relationships. Before she decides to leave, she already intertaining someone new. The problem was that tom brady married a women of status, who makes more than him. Its a learning lesson though.
40% of marriages will have infidelity these days. It is not just in celebrity circles. My heart was broken by my husband's affair with his married coworker.
I’m so glad to find that there are still some smart, emotional intelligent people left on this planet. I absolutely agree. It is so sad how the world has lowered their standards of what marriage is supposed to be like and Hollywood has created this disgusting image of something so sacred such as marriage. I enjoyed listening to words such as marriage is a sacrifice. Of course you cannot be selfish in a marriage if you want to be happy. No marriage is perfect mine is not but I have a loving, caring husband who puts as much effort as I do to make us happy. Only if more People would understand this we would have less divorces, less unhappy children, less broken families. ❤
Gisele is beautiful, successful and she seems to be supportive of Tom, at least when you see her at football games cheering for him. She appears to understand the game and seems genuinely to enjoy being there. It is harder to tell how supportive Tom is of her career. But, from outward appearances he seems to be proud of her. I hope they can work it out.
I am not in a relationship or have ever been married. But Dr laura "you don't get resentful for a heartfelt gift" so true I have been told by romcom that love is a feeling. Jaded people tell you love is a choice. But in my family I have always seem and experienced love as heartfelt sacrifice and it so sad all over the world in relationships we still dont know that
While I don’t like to think about marriage as a business arrangement, there is a very large bit of me that acknowledges the fact that it is a binding contract, with all that entails.
The notion of sacrifice is deeply offensive to many people. Especially in the context of marriage. My family is the thing I value most in my life. My husband and I both have at times said no to many things, big and small, to protect it. To us, it is the foundation of every other good thing in our life and we are far better together than we were apart. We’ve been married 7 years, and we are continually happier in our marriage as time goes on.
I remember when I was exposed to social media via the sites of friends and acquaintances. To compare my life with theirs was immediate. That was the last time I have viewed social media in that way. I have visited sites but to learn or see something specific and I’m off. 😊
"...with her karate instructor..." I laughed too. It's so OBVIOUS 😂 Megyn is a true romantic and cannot see the cynicism of that relationship. That is to her credit
Why is it that some people always fall for fixer uppers...will be perfect if only... (I have done this myself). Tom was always Tom - if he hadn't been a successful football player she probably wouldn't have married him. Football is something he has always been passionate about, even before he met her. Why would you ask someone you love to give up their passion (it's not alcohol, it's not drugs, yes there's risks but lots of rewards from keeping fit and healthy). I think when people do give in to our demands we lose respect for them. Sounds like she was bored and instead of finding a passion for herself she made taking his away and making him miserable her passion.
@@sassysandie2865 Absolutely agree he probably wouldn't have dated anyone who wasn't stunning. He might have thought he'd be able to persuade her to enjoy the same things he does. It's such a shame there's kids involved. Hope you're having a good weekend :)
Your mindset is all wrong. No wonder why no one can stay married. Giselle has more money than tom and was more famous than him. Why do you think their divorce went so smoothly? It is because she doesn't need toms money. Also, keep in mind that she had been with him for 10 years not 10 days but years. It is hard to do that if you are not interested in someone. Marriage is not about a career it is about commitment to each other. Women are guilt shame into not prioritizing their careers for the sake of family and women are also considered the devil for requiring the same thing from their men. 10 years is a long time to be chasing your dreams and placing your family second. If you want to chase your dreams for as long as you want then stay single because some women want a present and active husband and father instead of a famous football player
In most marriages, great ones, bad ones, there is a control element in it and in regards to Sonny & Cher, Cher was a teen ager when she and Sonny got together, and as great as Sonny was at the beginning with her/their careers, he wasn't that great later on and Cher looked elsewhere for guidance. She was probably also finding herself as a person and they drifted apart, which happens so often.
To an extent. A football career doesn't ordinarily go on as long as his has though. She put her modeling career on hold and was there for the kids for so many years so he could pursue football. Maybe she did that because she loved him and sacrificed for him....but then felt blindsided, unloved, and used when it turned out that he didn't care enough about her to return the favor. (It's not manipulation if she didn't do X with the intention of later demanding Y.)
@@patriciao5239 Does she want a 45year old man to sit on his butt and become a baby sitter?,men aren't built for that,the drive and testosterone in him will die. She just needed to give him 1 or 2 years more,it's painful to see a man I admire get divorced. It's scary for most men watching this. Tom Brady is rich,famous,tall,handsome,athletic all the things we as men think women like and he still got divorced by his wife. What are the chances of guy with average height,average income, not famous of keeping a woman happy.
I find it interesting that many think Tom should have retired. Well he has a $37.5 million dollar, 10 year contract with Fox to be a sports analyst. He would be away from home a lot with this career also. He is only 45. Did she expect him to be home all the time? Imagine if he had demanded SHE give up her modeling career!!
I don't believe football is the reason she just uses that, she used to go to all the games and she was always cheering him on so there's something else going on
She was craving new D!! That's what never gets discussed. Any man or woman after so many years together, will want new box or D. Nobody wants to eat the same meal from the same restaurant forever. She wanted someone new to clap her cheeks, someone new to blow her back out!!!
No she wouldn't. She has been feeling lonely for many years. Brady goes away for months every year. She thought it will change once Brady retires. She will be fine once she starts to socialize.
I watched an interview with her and she said she was raising her kids with Tom and Tom's kids what she felt was by herself and she asked him after all the sacrifice her and the kids made not having him around that it was time for him to be part of the kids lives. He announced he was retiring and everything was fine and then he changed his mind so she filed for divorce. He had concussions from playing and she was worried about his future health.
Remember, when Tom and Gisele got together, Tom’s girlfriend was pregnant. He then left his pregnant girlfriend for Gisele. Bad character. What goes around comes around. Gisele got Tommed.
That's just a stupid statement..she was pregnant, yes, but they weren't together, U should never stop living because a relationship didn't work out...what was he supposed to do, not have a girlfriend because he broke up with the last one...sit there n play mom and dad without a relationship? No no no...take care of your child and move on, and that goes for both of them...u must be a youngster to even make that statement
I think bradys and bunchen cheated moynahan before the break up..if bunchen has a bone in her body she should have given in..but she's so full of herself..karma for tom after a decade of abandoning moynahan and his kid..moynahan is very nice to share his son with brady..because if it happened to me brady will not know he has a son..ill never share my son with him..brady let go of an amazing woman in moynahan to build his life with a witch with no values on.bunchen didnt even finished high school..shes street smart and only lives for herself...after 40 women lost their market value..lets see if it still will work for her..
The divorce was not about football. She just wanted some new meat. I mean gimme a break. He can't play much longer anyway and beside most normal people don't retire until 65. And football season is only 6 months out of the year anyway.Not a valid reason for divorce. Her excuse is pure nonsense.
You sound like a real catch. I’m sure you would react kindly, to someone you loved, making you a promise, and repeatedly changing their mind. I’m sure you would be very understanding. Women actually have brains, between their ears, just like men.
Most people retire at 60 because they don't have the money to retire early. Furthermore, whenever you hear the come men talk about wanting to become successful it is for them to be able to retire early so they can have more time with their families.
People, don't compare your life, marraige, or look with other people. Be thankful for what you have because whoever is in your life and that person is special for you, just for you. You cannot say I'm married for so, and so years and we stuck it through, good for you because you are not the one who is marry to Tom or Jechelle.
She’s already taking her kids on dates with her Jiu-Jitsu instructor that speaks for everything. It wasn’t about his football career it was about her cheating and betraying him when she didn’t get what she wanted as happens often amongst women and men these days more so than not.
@@mcurrie2886 Hearsay is one word, and we are all entitled to our opinions . Here's a fact though: Her Grandfather was a Nazi who escaped to S. America, but once she got with Tom Brady, she had her family history erased from the internet
Be specific, what did she say that was disgusting? Better yet, tell us what they discussed? I bet you didn't even listen, because your comment sure indicates you have no idea what was discussed
Sonny and Cher, yes! I was a fan of those two. So fun and sweet. I was disappointed when she left him. I felt sorry for him. I saw their last interview before the divorce and it looked to me their relationship was done.
One partner trying to change the other's career or impose restrictions on their hobbies will, without doubt, ruin a marriage. We must be free to follow our own passions and interests!
@@bl1707 If one partner thinks forcing the other partner to do what he/she does not want to do, it will, without any doubt, end the marriage, or result in an unhappy marriage, and ruin the family. Roles, goals and how to accomplish them should be worked before marriage with no compromise. For example, if a woman who abhors smoking, meets a really good looking, sweet, guy who is smart and successful but smokes, but she decides to compromise on the smoking - marries him because of all his other qualities, that marriage will not last. She should not compromise on the smoking. If a guy, who is orderly and tidy, meets a beautiful, sweet woman who is disorganized and sufficiently untidy to be concerned about her being a future hoarder, that marriage will end. He should not have compromised on a trait that was important to him.
The comment about the snapshot is so true. It may not be real and if not the people who are playing the facade know the truth and its depressing. The other problem is for the people who see the photo and are fooled and compare their reality with that family's snapshot--again depression.
The children suffer the most. They don't ever say anything because they want to keep the peace. But it hurts deeply. A child cannot wrap their head around the fact that they are 1/2 mom and 1/2 dad. If mom and dad separate, then they rightly so think that half of them are hated by mom, and half by dad - no matter what mom and dad says to them. The most important thing for kids of divorce understand is that God created them out of his plan, and used their parents to give them the gift of life. However, people fall short, and their love for each other fails. But God never fails for his love for his creation in all of us. His love for us is most important, our parents love for us is not so important - it is not eternal. God's love for us is eternal. Kids of divorce, rest easy in the knowledge your Creator loves you despite what your parents have done. Cling to Christ his son, and to your spiritual Mother Mary. They can't be seen, but if you pray you will feel their presence and love. Reach out to other children of divorce and talk to them about your feelings. Share and let it out, because children of divorce are so discouraged by family by voicing their pain. Having to split your love between both parents, and all the holidays is generational. It not only affects the children, it affects the grandchildren as well.
It is not that serious. Would you rather teach your daughter to stay in a bad marriage for the sick of children or would you rather her be in a more happy place where she properly raises her children? As long as both parents are present in the children's lives they will heal from the situation. Two happy separated parents are better than a broken family.
@@kristenstudebaker814 because a broken home where children grow up seeing two unhappy and miserable people together who are always arguing is a better example for them? So when they grow up they can tell their boyfriends or girlfriends “ I have never seen my parents happy together, a loveless and lifeless home I had growing up”. I have seen home like these and when these children grow up they can’t wait to move out. When they get into a relationship they become dependent on men for the emotional support and bound they did not get to create with their parents. That’s call a broken home! The environment in which a child is raised in is way more important than whether or not the mother or father is present. A child with two involved and supportive happily divorce parents grow up with more confidence and less self esteem issues than one from a broken home.
I think the breakup of the marriage is sad. Let's pray that they can find their way back to each other. Tom has to make his wife important. She stood by him during his career. It's time for Tom to decide if his career, or his marriage is over.
Agreed with Doctor Laura ❤! Celeb doesn’t know what sacrifice is. They are all about self-image and selfishness, and selfish they don‘t know what sacrifice is. I hope they are happy with their choice at the end of the day.
That sound so self-centered. Celebrities are also people. People whose personal lives you know nothing of. Sacrifices are not only for women to make it is also required of men. Whenever a woman stands for herself worth all of the sudden she's not committed to her family.
Gee and when we think that the fact that he was a very wealthy handsome famous football player that was likely part of the attraction for her at the Start! You never ask a partner that you love to give up a piece of themselves that actually helps to make them who they are. Something else is going on.
Gisele is worth considerably more than Tom, she was world famous as a model before Tom became a football star. She was the only one that sacrificed for this marriage , not Tom!!
The Bible says to become one with your wife and not your career. If football is the most important piece of himself then, of course his marriage was doomed to fail. Your wife and children are the most important piece. Also, Giselle loves her career, she’s been modeling at a very young age, and yet she put her career on hiatus to be there for him and her family. if she was doing modeling shows she would probably not have been able to attend the majority of his games. The world would have called the “unsupportive wife” who places her career before her family and not being there to support her husband.
…my husband and I had a wonderful life together…5 years of courtships…25 years of bliss…he loved me…and I loved him…we never disrespected each other….never…I wanted him to be happy……always
…….he past away and is still with me….always!
That’s so wonderful you were able to have that deep of a love. ❤️
Loved how you used the word "always!"
Beautiful love 💕 So sorry for your loss. You are blessed for such a true love!
Bless !
Bless your heart, for sharing this. I’m very touched. He is an angel on your shoulder, now…
"if only one sacrifices, it's almost an abusive relationship", I glad you said that
After working with many high profile people... what the media says and what is actually going on is rarely portrayed accurately. The true travesty are the children... how tragic that they are rarely mentioned or considered. The people who"have it all" did not have it all... together. No envy here... my low profile life suits me just fine and then some.
Who? Where? High profile in what sense? This sounds like a humblebrag.
My profession.
The children are rarely considered when their parents divorce. Be real. The pain and suffering it’s so great that it becomes all about self preservation. Consideration for the children becomes secondary. A spouse, on either side, can break the other down so far that there can be no other consideration but permanent separation.
Dr. Laura transformed my life from being naive on humanity, to understanding them within just a few minutes of conversation.
She is amazing, unique, gifted and I will always treasure the path of understanding she initiated in me...from that point, plenty of knowledge has been gained of the ways of humanity.
She is a distinct gamechanger in my life for the better.
Thank you, Dr. Laura!
Great choice in a guest. I used to listen to Dr. Laura on radio and she usually hits the nail on the head and sometimes it's not what someone wants to hear. Hope she visits your channel again.
Yes
SHE NEEDS TO COMEBACK ON....SHE IS INTERESTING AND SMART
I remember daily listening to Dr Laura's Radio Show .....that was the best of her venues.
Me too my mom always had it on as a kid! Love her
Yes, ....."Hi Dr. Laura, I'm my kids mom" was the standard greeting. Those were the days.
I LOVE dr Laura and appreciated hearing y’all’s perspectives! My husband and I have been together for 16 years and married for 13 and you’re spot on about the sacrifice aspect… this was a good reminder as well… marriage takes effort!🙏🏻
Marriage takes effort from both involved not only from the woman's side. Agreeing with a man who wishes to follow his dream for as long as he wants to while the woman is raising his kids like a single mother is that what you call sacrifice?
What if it was Gisele who was putting her career first and family second then all of those women would have been mom-shaming her for not prioritizing her family.
Some are accusing her of cheating but what if it was tom who had cheated on her? Society would have blamed her for his action since she wasn't spending enough time with him and made him feel lonely. As they say “a man has his needs”
Women are always to blame. The sacrifices most women talk about they are the ones making the majority of them. Not every woman wants to play single mother while their men are too busy chasing their dream. Just like being a husband and father isn't enough to fulfill a man it is the same for women. She put her career on a hiatus for 10 years just to be there for him now it's time for her to also fulfill her desires without being mom-shame.
A couple needs to give each other the chance to fulfill themselves outside of their marriage and children. It is give and take
Why should he retire if he's not done yet? What other profession does a man retire at 45?
@@bendover3653 the average men want to become successful so they can “spend more time with the family” while a man who is 45 years years old with WAYYY more money than the average men refuses to retire so he can do his husbandly and fatherly duty like the rest of his kind. While his wife for the sake of being there for him and his children took a 10 years hiatus from a career that solemnly focus on her beauty which fades with age. Why should you ask? Well so he can be more present and active in the life of his wife and children . So he can now support his wife’s dream so as she been supporting his. Marriage is a 100 percent support they say , well , now it’s time for him to show his support.
I love Dr. Laura....no BS, just brutal truth.
Her books are quite good, I've found. Not at all the way I was told she conducted herself on her radio call in show.
Agreed
Megyn, I have been married for 62 years, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors, none of us are in a position to be judgmental. only saying/ 💗💗💗
Spill the beans, Janet…c’mon…
It take two people to make a marriage work. No one knows what went on behind closed doors. But it takes both giving 100% to make it work.
It wasnt them they invested with FTX. lost 50million
It may take two people for a marriage to work - but I only takes one cheating one for the marriage to fall apart.
Yes and He didn't
@@jenniferthreatt8455 apparently, she did though.
I give 95 percent but he’s oblivious and I’m over it. I love him.
Marriage is not 50-50. That's a Contract.
Marriage is 100-100: a Covenant!
Not, you give me this and I'll give you that, but rather, I give you all of me and you give me all of you.
Covenant unto the Lord.
@@gracenmercy579 that is what our Priest said when we were getting married and those words will always resonate with me…you have to give 100% in a marriage not 50% and the other person has to give 100% as well to make a marriage work.. I truly and honestly believe that I repeat those words to my children I don’t know where this 50-50 came from but 100% and 100% is dead on.. 30 years later and I think of those words more than I think of anything marriage is tough and you have to work 100% give 100% and so does your spouse and you know what sometimes one of you faulted and hurts a little bit but as long as the other one loves you enough and is working 100% and gets you back up there there’s no other thing better than loving a good marriage…I’m not talking about cheating or mental or physical abuse but the little things the little things are nothing when you are giving 100% and so is the other person that’s love people
Thomas, I totally agree. Let us also notice how quickly she moved on which simply means she never intended to save the marriage. It's so sad how many of these people can process their undying love yet the minute they don't get what they want they're gone.
@@lydiapicano8806 I find it funny how the 100 percent falls on the woman to fulfill but not the man. She had already sacrifice her career so he fully focus on his and when the time came for him to allow to focus on her career again he chose her ultimatum which was his marriage or football.
For some reason there's sexism in your statement. I will give you my all she did that but he wasn't willing to give her his all because his career came first.
Dr Laura is very smart, listened to her radio show on relationships!!! Always gave the best advice!!! Glad to see her again.
Love hearing from Dr. Laura. Thanks!
More more with Dr. Laura!👏
WoW! Two people who have a conversation and really listen to each other’s responses.
Meghan _ I love the the diversity of topics you cover. You are one of last true Journalists. Keep up the excellent analysis!
One rumor is that the marriage was pretty much done before he un-retired. Once Tom realized it was not repairable, he put his $300+mil broadcast deal with Fox on hold and play another season in the NFL for ~$12mil so the $300+mil would not be up for grabs during the divorce 🤔
Interesting 🤔
I love Margaritas but when I drink a few may get a little mouthy thus my wife does not like it much when I drink them. She said I don’t care what you drink, which is not much or often, but I don’t like it when you drink Margaritas. We been married almost 18 years and I love Margaritas but I love my wife way more so when she said that I promised her I would never drink another one and I have not and will not. She did not ask me to make that promise but my relationship with her and love for her means far more to me. Now that is a small thing and I could have said to her deal with it but then that would make me a prick and extremely selfish. Couples must compromise in a relationship and find out what is most important. I can’t imagine life without her and would be devastated but life without Margaritas is just great and I don’t miss them. Another great show. By the way Megyn I watched you on Fox News and loved your show but that was mostly political I so much love you more on this platform.
Your comment touches me because I believe that "small" things like that make a big difference.
@@marilena7848 Thank you. There is a 23 year difference in our ages me 71 but according to people I look 50 and my wife 48 she also looks younger than she is and we have a 16 year old beautiful daughter.

My 22 year marriage looked great on the outside, but once inside no one saw the verbal, mental, emotional abuse. I couldn’t anymore and walked away from my husband.
Sometimes you can be happier not married; in fact most of the time. A single life can be a very happy thing.
Maybe it wasn’t for them to see? I mean, it is between the two people in the marriage, not the people outside the marriage.
@@m.e.d.7997 it isn’t about “marriage”, it is about the people. If you find the right person, it is organic. Even if it ends, for some reason, doesn’t mean it wasn’t worthwhile, or that you didn’t share very positive experiences with that person. You don’t have to be “for” or against “marriage”. This is such a simplistic, and needlessly limiting perspective.
@Lucy Vanpelt He clearly had issues. Hopefully you found a different person, who respected you.
@@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied Some people are much happier single and unmarried. Never said I was against marriage but with the right mate. Some people find that but many others are not that lucky. Being alone therefore can be a happy life. You do not need to be in a marriage to exist live and be happy.
Something fishy about that divorce.
25 years ago as a teenager I was listening to Dr Laura on AM radio. It was an influence on me. I never married. 😆 No, but I have had an interest in counseling ever since and was able to successfully help some folks with simpler problems.
So this was a “good” thing?
Gisele was quite good at portraying the adoring wife. Lots of pictures of her looking up at Tom with her adoring eyes.

Yes ! speaks volumes .
Uh, can you tell us if there will be a nuclear war, please? You nailed the Brady thing…so…

DR. LAURA!!!! She changed my life - massively!!!!! Can’t understate how she helped me build my family, raise my children…LOVE HER!!!
Giselle is the Tom Brady of modeling. She is a very successful woman. She has been open and vocal about her reservations with Tom Brady playing football including the damage to his body and brain. She cared about his health and him being there for their kids. It also seems like she wanted a turn pursuing her interests. Giselle had a home in Costa Rica for years well before she met Tom. A marriage is a partnership and it looks to me like Gisele did her part
she wanted a new man, period. the football thing was an excuse. her separating from him didnt accomplish him helping his health, now did it ?
@@BradSabako when your husband constantly chooses his career over his family don’t you blame her for leaving? Maybe this divorce will finally open his eyes with having 50/50 custody he’ll pay more attention to his family because Giselle is not there to pick up the slack and hopefully he’ll see that he needs to do what’s best for his health and living a long life to be there for his kids.
@@caribanna yes I blame her she married a football player, and he’s still at the top of his game, and Kay scale. She’s already checked out because she wants a new guy, period. She monkey branched out to her karate teacher before he’s ugh Tom, so that’s bad. She’s says she’s leaving him because she wants more time with him… yet … she’s heaving him!!! See the irony?
Sure she’s the victim and cheated on him. If he had cheated on her you’d be denigrating him, instead u defend her. Typical feminist.
@@BradSabako there is no irony. He’s practically left going away to games and training for a decent chunk of the year therefore not spending more time with his family. So yeah if he wants to spend more time on the road than with his family she made the decision easier for him. He can rest easy doing his career. He’s 45 years old, he should’ve properly retired while he was on top. He’s not as good as he was and he’s holding on to an unrealistic goal. She expected this athlete lifestyle to have an expiry date which is very understandable. Football is not for forever. It’s all rumours and speculation that she’s dating her martial arts teacher. All sources say it’s false sooo do with that what you will. Celebs fly their trainers out all the time I don’t get how this somehow makes things a different situation.
All very true……also when two people want different things….it’s over. Years ago, people stayed together and compromised. No more
Speak for yourself.
By people you mean women. Years ago women were forced to compromise with the cheating, abuse, and disrespect.
Tom Cruise was awful to Nicole! She's so much happier with Keith Urban now!
And your point is?
As soon as Nicole started showing her value and talent as an actress, he was done with her. Cruise wants someone to walk behind him and adore him.
Nicole didn’t like Scientology.
She didn't know it was coming! She thought they were happy just like Megyn said she did. Scientology convinced Tom to divorce her.
I'm so glad she found Keith ❤
“KU’s a man..”NK” lucked out 😊
Megyn....hearts are 'almost always' separate from the 'visual' side of life. Love the podcast!! 🙌🙏❤
Dr. Laura said it beautifully "I love you and I want you to be happy, so this is what I'm giving to you. *It's a gift* You don't get resentful about heartfelt gift."
I love how Kelly goes "Hmm.."
He said he was going to retire. Which meant more time with his wife and family.
Then he reneged. She was raising his children likely mostly by herself.
Perhaps they made this agreement and he didn't follow through.
This is my thought as well.
Yup
Please. People with hundreds of millions of dollars have housekeepers, cooks, nannies, etc. She got to do the things she wanted and delegated the rest to the hired help.
What does that have to do with his promise to retire and spend more time with his wife and his OWN children.
She seems to have spent time with her children, he did not. It was sporadic.
People can have help, and still spend quality time with their children.
He had one good year left on his career. She wouldn’t let him have it? She was cheating for years. She didn’t want him around after his career was over. She was just being a @unt.
Three things: (1) Forgive and forget, (2) compromise, and (3) stay clean and healthy. If you can do that, you can stay together forever. That applies to any relationship.

Thank you Megyn & Dr Laura. I really liked when Dr. Laura said not to compare your ongoing video of your life with somebody else's snapshot of theirs.👏👏
They are actually already divorced a few days after filing. It's a done deal.
Yup, that’s why I find this segment a bit baffling.
I think the same need is in private marriages, to make everything look okay to outsiders. It's exacerbated in public marriages, but it's common in many, many marriages. Comparison happened before, that's where "Keeping up with the Jones's" came from. These are not new issues. No one knows what happens in a marriage except the two people in it, and sometimes they don't either.
Speak for yourself…
Imagine if Giselle was doing modeling shows following her dream-like Tom she would probably not have been able to attend the majority of his games. When that happens society would have called her the “unsupportive wife” who places her career before her family and not being there to support her husband. Yet when she asks Tom to put his career on a hiatus to be there for her society still calls her the “unsupportive wife” who wants her husband to give up his career so she can follow hers.
In all women are still the ones required to make the sacrifices needed to make the marriage work. They can't give men an ultimatum because as the lady said “ in marriage, you can't keep track of the sacrifices you make” Women are expected to sacrifice out of love and are not required to hold them against their husbands. All the while they are supposed to be always grateful for their husband doing the bare minimum. Although women have been fighting for equal pay a lot of them still consider working to be a choice and for that reason society always supports men who complain about their wives putting their careers first and family second while the same society supports men who place more importance on their career than their family and guilt shame women who require their husband to do otherwise.
You nailed it. All these men criticizing Gisele are projecting their own bitterness from their life experience onto the situation. Gisele was the most concerned about her family and Tom Brady wanted to be Peter Pan. If I was Gisele I would divorce his sorry ass too.
@@la6136 If the two of you are not married, please remain single.
I don’t think Tom knows what is sacrifice for others he is just like a grown up kid that enjoys playing. It’s all about him and she got tired.
How about the reason for divorce being they lost their shirts in the FTX scandal.
I'm sure that certainly adds to it.
And being sued too
FTX stress😏
Why would this cause a divorce? If they both invested, like idiots, clearly, than they both go down together. I don’t know why divorce would be an assumed outcome. I mean certainly, there is no way they could have both been, so stupid, as to invest everything into crypto? Bitcoin, on the other hand, I would understand, in which case they would be sitting pretty, very soon…but crypto? Good God.
Such a great conversation to bring up! Megan Kelly is legit! And good to hear from Dr. Laura. And 10/10 it wasn't only him giving up football. It was all the "perks" Tom received with it from women to time away from her.
I truly believe Giselle was keeping score on who gave more in their marriage. Marriage is never 50/50. Someone always sacrifices more and neither were willing to do that because of their super egos. This is very common when both have equal fame and fortune. Brad & Angelina, Tom & Nicole etc..
Or when the woman doesn’t need BS from a man, yes!!! That’s what happen. They move on.
We don't even know what they promised each other when getting married. Did he promised to slow down working at some point.... did he swear he would love to be involved with his kids activities at some point, did he promise to slow down so she could have more time to focus on her work at one point... Who knows
And bviously if you don't do anything for the marriage you don't need to keep scores. So should the person who get screwed just shut up until she gets a breakdown or cheat or should that person speak up and see if the partner is willing or not to finally also make an effort. At least she spoke, she tried they still did not agree so then she said she is done and moved on. At least she was honest, better than playing mind games or living a double life for years which many men prefer doing and which is the worst for kids.
Amber and JD
if it's a sacrifice, you don't keep count...apparently, neither knows that
she was keeping score of the number of sacrifices she made and decided to give him an ultimatum which was for him to also sacrifice something and yet he couldn’t even do that. He chose to sacrifice his marriage than to give up football he was the one who made the final decision.
My exact thoughts....him wanting to play another season is not a good enough reason for divorce. Him beating the crap out of her and she is sleeping around etc.. now that are deal breakers. This is just a pissing contest from two spoilt brats who had the wind in their backs for their whole adult lives.
Yes, I think there must be other reasons.🤔
Yeah the bitch was sleeping around
How can you know it was not enough? Do you know them? Do you know how was her life while he is out for most time to play football with his buddies? Goodness
beating the crap out of her?
The sleeping around, or the being beaten to a pulp? Or both?
Love Dr Laura!!!
Had a friend who got married. My husband knew them a little, just socially. As we left the wedding, he said, they'll be divorced in a year. He was right...asked how he could make this assessment...he simply stated that "he could tell". The husband moved out while she was at work. She just could not let go. She actually began semi stalking him. Cane to his place of work, to his apt and to his families home. I begged her to get counseling and let the poor guy alone. The next thing I knew...he committed suicide. So very sorry for them both. They should have never been married.
How sad
Whenever the wedding is all about the show, it won't last. They wake up the day after, look around, and think "now what?". Now the planning and parties and attention are over. Now the work begins. So many can't make the transition.
“I could tell” is a terrible, terrible assessment from an alleged doctor. That’s just gut feeling. A doctor is meant to be rational and logical, even with emotions. Assessments come from tangible elements that can be expressed.
Your example is also daft I’m afraid. I’ll explain why. Say 24 people at that wedding, half of them think the marriage will last, half don’t. Of the half that don’t they guess the month the marriage will end…each with a different month. One of them would be right and 23 will be wrong. The one that was right thinks they are some genius predicting it, they are not.. they are oblivious to the number of false assessments which is a concept about “ignoring negative data”.
Elena, He was Probably Gay!!!😂😂😂
What?
It's strange hearing about this story. Gisele wanted the marriage, now it's over. Now Gisele is with someone else already. Disgusting. Sorry, these celebs are way too fast with their partner switchings.
Its true. In general women want to get married but they are the ones who initiate most divorces and end most relationships. It is sad but its the reality and the truth and knowing the truth as a men will set you free. Most women monkey branch in relationships. Before she decides to leave, she already intertaining someone new. The problem was that tom brady married a women of status, who makes more than him. Its a learning lesson though.
There may have been someone in Giseles life already
Disgusting why? Is she sending you her bills for you to pay?
40% of marriages will have infidelity these days. It is not just in celebrity circles.
My heart was broken by my husband's affair with his married coworker.
She is right. This marriage is over long time ago cos him
I’m so glad to find that there are still some smart, emotional intelligent people left on this planet. I absolutely agree. It is so sad how the world has lowered their standards of what marriage is supposed to be like and Hollywood has created this disgusting image of something so sacred such as marriage. I enjoyed listening to words such as marriage is a sacrifice. Of course you cannot be selfish in a marriage if you want to be happy. No marriage is perfect mine is not but I have a loving, caring husband who puts as much effort as I do to make us happy. Only if more
People would understand this we would have less divorces, less unhappy children, less broken families. ❤
Gisele is beautiful, successful and she seems to be supportive of Tom, at least when you see her at football games cheering for him. She appears to understand the game and seems genuinely to enjoy being there. It is harder to tell how supportive Tom is of her career. But, from outward appearances he seems to be proud of her. I hope they can work it out.
I am not in a relationship or have ever been married. But Dr laura "you don't get resentful for a heartfelt gift" so true
I have been told by romcom that love is a feeling. Jaded people tell you love is a choice. But in my family I have always seem and experienced love as heartfelt sacrifice and it so sad all over the world in relationships we still dont know that
While I don’t like to think about marriage as a business arrangement, there is a very large bit of me that acknowledges the fact that it is a binding contract, with all that entails.
To an extent, it should be. People should take it more seriously, and treat it with much more respect, and genuine commitment.
2 mins in and I agree 💯 with Dr. Laura. Nothing is as it seems with most of these high profile couples and people!
our celebrated happy people are so miserable these days. our celebrations are of misery making money.

The notion of sacrifice is deeply offensive to many people. Especially in the context of marriage.
My family is the thing I value most in my life. My husband and I both have at times said no to many things, big and small, to protect it. To us, it is the foundation of every other good thing in our life and we are far better together than we were apart.
We’ve been married 7 years, and we are continually happier in our marriage as time goes on.
I miss Dr. Laura!
I remember when I was exposed to social media via the sites of friends and acquaintances. To compare my life with theirs was immediate. That was the last time I have viewed social media in that way. I have visited sites but to learn or see something specific and I’m off. 😊
"...with her karate instructor..." I laughed too. It's so OBVIOUS 😂 Megyn is a true romantic and cannot see the cynicism of that relationship. That is to her credit

Why is it that some people always fall for fixer uppers...will be perfect if only... (I have done this myself).
Tom was always Tom - if he hadn't been a successful football player she probably wouldn't have married him. Football is something he has always been passionate about, even before he met her. Why would you ask someone you love to give up their passion (it's not alcohol, it's not drugs, yes there's risks but lots of rewards from keeping fit and healthy). I think when people do give in to our demands we lose respect for them. Sounds like she was bored and instead of finding a passion for herself she made taking his away and making him miserable her passion.
I agree but he probably wouldn’t have been with her if she was not beautiful.
@@sassysandie2865 Absolutely agree he probably wouldn't have dated anyone who wasn't stunning. He might have thought he'd be able to persuade her to enjoy the same things he does. It's such a shame there's kids involved. Hope you're having a good weekend :)
You weren’t there, this is absurd. No one knows a thing, about these two, or their relationship. Good God.
@@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied yes, and I’m wondering why we even watched this?? Who cares what celebrities do? I have enough trouble with my own life!
Your mindset is all wrong. No wonder why no one can stay married. Giselle has more money than tom and was more famous than him. Why do you think their divorce went so smoothly? It is because she doesn't need toms money. Also, keep in mind that she had been with him for 10 years not 10 days but years. It is hard to do that if you are not interested in someone. Marriage is not about a career it is about commitment to each other. Women are guilt shame into not prioritizing their careers for the sake of family and women are also considered the devil for requiring the same thing from their men. 10 years is a long time to be chasing your dreams and placing your family second. If you want to chase your dreams for as long as you want then stay single because some women want a present and active husband and father instead of a famous football player
In most marriages, great ones, bad ones, there is a control element in it and in regards to Sonny & Cher, Cher was a teen ager when she and Sonny got together, and as great as Sonny was at the beginning with her/their careers, he wasn't that great later on and Cher looked elsewhere for guidance. She was probably also finding herself as a person and they drifted apart, which happens so often.
LOVE Dr. Laura!!
Meghan markle coming up next
I've always liked Dr Laura. She was ahead of her time.
Men identify by their jobs. Tell him to get out of their job he's like destroying them. Women. Stop trying to change men.
I think that was just the excuse told to the public. I don’t think we’ll ever know what really happened.
To an extent. A football career doesn't ordinarily go on as long as his has though. She put her modeling career on hold and was there for the kids for so many years so he could pursue football. Maybe she did that because she loved him and sacrificed for him....but then felt blindsided, unloved, and used when it turned out that he didn't care enough about her to return the favor. (It's not manipulation if she didn't do X with the intention of later demanding Y.)
Women are selfish af
@@patriciao5239 Does she want a 45year old man to sit on his butt and become a baby sitter?,men aren't built for that,the drive and testosterone in him will die. She just needed to give him 1 or 2 years more,it's painful to see a man I admire get divorced. It's scary for most men watching this. Tom Brady is rich,famous,tall,handsome,athletic all the things we as men think women like and he still got divorced by his wife. What are the chances of guy with average height,average income, not famous of keeping a woman happy.
@@Bosanovadude1 and so are many men. Human nature.
I find it interesting that many think Tom should have retired. Well he has a $37.5 million dollar, 10 year contract with Fox to be a sports analyst. He would be away from home a lot with this career also. He is only 45. Did she expect him to be home all the time?
Imagine if he had demanded SHE give up her modeling career!!
I don't believe football is the reason she just uses that, she used to go to all the games and she was always cheering him on so there's something else going on
Really. I totally agree with you.
@@mystique592 most people retire in their 60's they don't need the money they just love what they do for a living
I read his net worth is 375 million not 37.5 million.
@@lydiaarenas6184 You’re right. $37.5M/for 10 years.
Dr. LAURA Where ruuuuu, Please Come Back uuuu are needed sooooo badly.🙏🏻💯
Saw a report that TB's money is tied up in FTX.
Ohhhh It’s been a long time I haven’t listened to Dr.Laura! Her talks did gave me balance in life when I had my first child!
Very good advice!
I always thought TB & GB were too different . As you get older the gap can widen. I was not surprised at all. I wish them the best
I think Gisele will end up regretting it.
I don’t think football was really the reason.
Why is someone else problems our problem.
She was craving new D!! That's what never gets discussed. Any man or woman after so many years together, will want new box or D. Nobody wants to eat the same meal from the same restaurant forever. She wanted someone new to clap her cheeks, someone new to blow her back out!!!
No she wouldn't. She has been feeling lonely for many years. Brady goes away for months every year. She thought it will change once Brady retires. She will be fine once she starts to socialize.
@@dlkhills because we like reading about celebrities problems that's our Recreation
He was ripped off by FTX
I watched an interview with her and she said she was raising her kids with Tom and Tom's kids what she felt was by herself and she asked him after all the sacrifice her and the kids made not having him around that it was time for him to be part of the kids lives. He announced he was retiring and everything was fine and then he changed his mind so she filed for divorce. He had concussions from playing and she was worried about his future health.
Remember, when Tom and Gisele got together, Tom’s girlfriend was pregnant. He then left his pregnant girlfriend for Gisele. Bad character. What goes around comes around. Gisele got Tommed.
That's just a stupid statement..she was pregnant, yes, but they weren't together, U should never stop living because a relationship didn't work out...what was he supposed to do, not have a girlfriend because he broke up with the last one...sit there n play mom and dad without a relationship? No no no...take care of your child and move on, and that goes for both of them...u must be a youngster to even make that statement
I think bradys and bunchen cheated moynahan before the break up..if bunchen has a bone in her body she should have given in..but she's so full of herself..karma for tom after a decade of abandoning moynahan and his kid..moynahan is very nice to share his son with brady..because if it happened to me brady will not know he has a son..ill never share my son with him..brady let go of an amazing woman in moynahan to build his life with a witch with no values on.bunchen didnt even finished high school..shes street smart and only lives for herself...after 40 women lost their market value..lets see if it still will work for her..
@@helenvillaruel6861 wow, you're drowning yourself with hate!
@@wiggly103 yes , he should get back to his ex gf , cause she was pregnant
All of the above also Giselle filed for divorce so how did she get “tommed” when she left him?
Tom and Gisele lost millions in the FTX scandal...
The divorce was not about football. She just wanted some new meat. I mean gimme a break. He can't play much longer anyway and beside most normal people don't retire until 65. And football season is only 6 months out of the year anyway.Not a valid reason for divorce. Her excuse is pure nonsense.
You sound like a real catch. I’m sure you would react kindly, to someone you loved, making you a promise, and repeatedly changing their mind. I’m sure you would be very understanding. Women actually have brains, between their ears, just like men.
Most people retire at 60 because they don't have the money to retire early. Furthermore, whenever you hear the come men talk about wanting to become successful it is for them to be able to retire early so they can have more time with their families.
“Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.”
Robert A. Heinlein
Dr Laura!!! I used to listen to her on kfi until a certain group had her cancelled.
Who?
I think the marriage fell apart over the FTX investment they foolishly made and NOT because Tom's career.
People, don't compare your life, marraige, or look with other people. Be thankful for what you have because whoever is in your life and that person is special for you, just for you. You cannot say I'm married for so, and so years and we stuck it through, good for you because you are not the one who is marry to Tom or Jechelle.
Thanks again 😘
How do you know it was lack of sacrifice and not cheating or some other reason that caused the divorce?
No one knows, nor should they.
She’s already taking her kids on dates with her Jiu-Jitsu instructor that speaks for everything. It wasn’t about his football career it was about her cheating and betraying him when she didn’t get what she wanted as happens often amongst women and men these days more so than not.
Hear say.
Goodness how low people can go AGAINST A WOMAN??????
@@mcurrie2886 Hearsay is one word, and we are all entitled to our opinions . Here's a fact though: Her Grandfather was a Nazi who escaped to S. America, but once she got with Tom Brady, she had her family history erased from the internet
@@bilingualway I like her. Very strong women. She is entitled to live her life as she wishes.
@@mcurrie2886 Yes, she is ❤️
For her to sit there and comment on someone’s marriage when she has zero understanding of what went down is just disgusting
Be specific, what did she say that was disgusting? Better yet, tell us what they discussed? I bet you didn't even listen, because your comment sure indicates you have no idea what was discussed
They always look like the picture of perfection...until they don't.
Because money and fame only go so far. (you can feel it)
The family that prays together,stays together🙏
Sonny and Cher, yes! I was a fan of those two. So fun and sweet. I was disappointed when she left him. I felt sorry for him. I saw their last interview before the divorce and it looked to me their relationship was done.
He was abusive. But you guysvonly cover blk ppl abuse remember
And Cher went on to a series of boy toys. Giselle will too.
One partner trying to change the other's career or impose restrictions on their hobbies will, without doubt, ruin a marriage. We must be free to follow our own passions and interests!
Brady traded his marriage for 100,000 yards...
Figure out what is best for the family. The rest will figure themselves put.
@@neverwrong5544 If his wife was not decent enough to allow him his passion, 100,000 yards, then the marriage had no future.
@@bl1707 If one partner thinks forcing the other partner to do what he/she does not want to do, it will, without any doubt, end the marriage, or result in an unhappy marriage, and ruin the family.
Roles, goals and how to accomplish them should be worked before marriage with no compromise.
For example, if a woman who abhors smoking, meets a really good looking, sweet, guy who is smart and successful but smokes, but she decides to compromise on the smoking - marries him because of all his other qualities, that marriage will not last. She should not compromise on the smoking.
If a guy, who is orderly and tidy, meets a beautiful, sweet woman who is disorganized and sufficiently untidy to be concerned about her being a future hoarder, that marriage will end. He should not have compromised on a trait that was important to him.
To an extent we also must be willing to compromise and make sacrifices.
The comment about the snapshot is so true. It may not be real and if not the people who are playing the facade know the truth and its depressing. The other problem is for the people who see the photo and are fooled and compare their reality with that family's snapshot--again depression.
Happy birthday, Megyn. Have a nice day. Grettings from Argentina.
Naj! There is more to it than whatever the current story
Love Dr Laura
The children suffer the most. They don't ever say anything because they want to keep the peace. But it hurts deeply. A child cannot wrap their head around the fact that they are 1/2 mom and 1/2 dad. If mom and dad separate, then they rightly so think that half of them are hated by mom, and half by dad - no matter what mom and dad says to them. The most important thing for kids of divorce understand is that God created them out of his plan, and used their parents to give them the gift of life. However, people fall short, and their love for each other fails. But God never fails for his love for his creation in all of us. His love for us is most important, our parents love for us is not so important - it is not eternal. God's love for us is eternal. Kids of divorce, rest easy in the knowledge your Creator loves you despite what your parents have done. Cling to Christ his son, and to your spiritual Mother Mary. They can't be seen, but if you pray you will feel their presence and love. Reach out to other children of divorce and talk to them about your feelings. Share and let it out, because children of divorce are so discouraged by family by voicing their pain. Having to split your love between both parents, and all the holidays is generational. It not only affects the children, it affects the grandchildren as well.
It is not that serious. Would you rather teach your daughter to stay in a bad marriage for the sick of children or would you rather her be in a more happy place where she properly raises her children? As long as both parents are present in the children's lives they will heal from the situation. Two happy separated parents are better than a broken family.
@@Lily-have Maybe in your case, but not in mine.
@@kristenstudebaker814 because a broken home where children grow up seeing two unhappy and miserable people together who are always arguing is a better example for them? So when they grow up they can tell their boyfriends or girlfriends “ I have never seen my parents happy together, a loveless and lifeless home I had growing up”. I have seen home like these and when these children grow up they can’t wait to move out. When they get into a relationship they become dependent on men for the emotional support and bound they did not get to create with their parents. That’s call a broken home! The environment in which a child is raised in is way more important than whether or not the mother or father is present. A child with two involved and supportive happily divorce parents grow up with more confidence and less self esteem issues than one from a broken home.
Good message. How much is love worth? Love is choice & sacrifice. Career or family? Let's not normalize our loves ones choosing b/w them or a passion.
I think the breakup of the marriage is sad.
Let's pray that they can find their way back to each other.
Tom has to make his wife important.
She stood by him during his career.
It's time for Tom to decide if his career, or his marriage is over.
They did get married in a Catholic Church, so there's some hope.
They are already divorced…
Agreed with Doctor Laura ❤! Celeb doesn’t know what sacrifice is. They are all about self-image and selfishness, and selfish they don‘t know what sacrifice is. I hope they are happy with their choice at the end of the day.
That sound so self-centered. Celebrities are also people. People whose personal lives you know nothing of. Sacrifices are not only for women to make it is also required of men. Whenever a woman stands for herself worth all of the sudden she's not committed to her family.
And I hear they just lost millions with the whole Bitcoin ftx shenanigans
Megyn, I just wanted to wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I never realized you are a Scorpio. Wishing you the best!
God, I miss Dr. Laura on the radio ......
BTW I don't have SeriusXM
I used to listen to her, it was many years ago and then she got fired and I can't remember what the reason was
I think she said something politically incorrect yet it was right on
@@maryannenizio5074 she has an app that you can listen to all her “calls of the week”
Have one suggestion, having a partition of the screen showing the products of what you are promoting.
Gee and when we think that the fact that he was a very wealthy handsome famous football player that was likely part of the attraction for her at the Start! You never ask a partner that you love to give up a piece of themselves that actually helps to make them who they are. Something else is going on.
Gisele is worth considerably more than Tom, she was world famous as a model before Tom became a football star. She was the only one that sacrificed for this marriage , not Tom!!
The Bible says to become one with your wife and not your career. If football is the most important piece of himself then, of course his marriage was doomed to fail. Your wife and children are the most important piece. Also, Giselle loves her career, she’s been modeling at a very young age, and yet she put her career on hiatus to be there for him and her family. if she was doing modeling shows she would probably not have been able to attend the majority of his games. The world would have called the “unsupportive wife” who places her career before her family and not being there to support her husband.
