Tom Brady’s “True Love” Instagram post is being described as a subtle message to his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, in a new biography. The post, dated March 2025, appears roughly a month after Bündchen welcomed her first child with Joaquim Valente, according to the accounts reported by outlets.
Both sources say the biography connects the timing and wording of Brady’s caption to personal tensions, including issues related to Brady’s football career and the end of his marriage to Bündchen. Times of India quotes a characterisation of the post as a “softest middle finger,” while NDTV frames the claim as a friend’s interpretation that the message is “hiding in plain sight.”
Brady and Bündchen divorced in 2022 after 13 years of marriage. Neither outlet reports that Brady or Bündchen directly confirms that the Instagram post was intended as a message, and the coverage focuses on claims presented in the biography and associated commentary.
