Gisele Bundchen is eager for husband Tom Brady to hang up his helmet. "If it was up to my wife, she would have me retire today," the five-time Super Bowl champ said during an appearance on SiriusXM NFL Radio on Feb. 6. "She told me that last night three times. … I said, 'Too bad, babe, I'm having too much fun right now.'" The Patriots quarterback added that his family actually helps his football career: "In some ways, being more experienced and having your family life settled does allow you to focus a little bit more, too, because there's less B.S. in your life," he said. "You have your family and you can go to work and focus on your job. And you expect your teammates to do the same."

She also dished on how she and her ex co-parent their two daughters, Olive and Frankie. "It really is about the tone you set, and you can talk until you're blue in the face, but kids watch what you do every single day of your life, all day long, and that behavior and that example and that love and community and honesty is just, I think, what's making everything feel safe for my kids," Drew said. "And that's really the intention I had as a parent — how do my kids have this incredible sense of, like, freedom inside their heart, because they know I've got them and their dad's got them and the [rest of their family]."
