For a moment, it was hard for me to accept that this was the way I was going to have a family.”
Bundchen also had some hard time. In her memoir, Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life, Bundchen stated, “The very next day the news was everywhere, and I felt my world had been turned upside down. Needless to say, that wasn’t an easy time. But it was a time that brought about so much growth.” Brady and Bundchen got married in 2009, and Moynahan married Andrew Franklin in 2015.
