Tom FORTUNE OVER FAMILY

His comedy roast banked Tom Brady $22M, but its jokes also hurt his kids and exes

Forty days after announcing his retirement from football in February 2022, Tom Brady signed on to play one more year with Tampa Bay. The Buccaneers ended with a losing record, and it was widely reported that Tom’s NFL return led to his divorce from Gisele Bündchen later that year. This was something host Kevin Hart gleefully joked about during The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady in May. “When you got a chance to go 8-9, and all it will cost you is your wife and your kids,” said the comedian, “you gotta do what the f--- you gotta do.”
