After the two have parted ways, it seems Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen are gearing up for a very nasty and messy divorce.
Bündchen has hired the top divorce lawyer in Florida to take on Brady as the pair seem to be heading to the end zone. Bündchen hired Tom Sasser, the managing partner of the law firm Sasser, Cestero & Roy.
The West Palm Beach divorce attorney has handled a stable of high-profile clients including Tiger Woods in his divorce with Elin Nordegren.
Sasser also represented Jeff Gordon in his bitter 2003 divorce from wife Brooke, which turned into a battle over the NASCAR driver’s net worth, but was ultimately settled.
An insider close to the couple said, “Things are very nasty between Tom and Gisele because of the lawyers. They are ready for a fight.”
“Tom and Gisele are not battling over the kids, they both want joint custody. But it will take some time to divide their immense wealth and property all over the world,” the source added.
Bündchen, 42, and Brady, 45, share two children, son Benjamin, 12, and 9-year-old daughter Vivian, along with Brady’s son Jack, 15, with ex Bridget Moynahan.
Brady and Bündchen have been living separately for the past couple months following an epic fight and are looking at dividing up their multimillion-dollar empire.
“I don’t think there will be any coming back now. They both have lawyers and are looking at what a split will entail, who gets what and what the finances will be,” said the source. “There’s been trouble in the marriage over his decision to un-retire. Gisele has always been the one with the kids. They had agreed he would retire to focus on the family, then he changed his mind.”
