As the NFL recovers from the news that Tom Brady is headed to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, his family will adjust to a big move away from New England. For Gisele Bündchen, who became a huge Patriots supporter while cheering on her husband, she posted a heartfelt goodbye to Boston on Instagram to let everyone know what the team and city has meant to her.

Gisele has been in town since marrying Brady in 2009, and her farewell to her now-former home reflected an immense gratitude for the love and support all of the fans and residents have shown her since Day 1.

What a ride the last decade has been. Boston has been so good to us and will always be in our hearts. We will forever have wonderful memories. Our kids were born and raised there and we have made special friendships to last a lifetime. I’ll miss our friends, the beautiful change of seasons and the rides to the stadium to go cheer for Tom and the Pats. Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive of my husband and our family throughout all these years. We will miss you! ❤? Quanta transformação que aconteceu na minha vida nessa última década. Boston foi muito acolhedora conosco e estará sempre em nossos corações. Nós teremos para sempre memórias incríveis. Nossas crianças nasceram e cresceram lá e fizemos amizades especiais para o resto da vida. Vou sentir saudades dos nossos amigos, das lindas trocas de estações e de todas as nossas idas ao estádio para torcer pelo Tom e pelo Pats. Agradeço a todos que apoiaram meu marido e minha família por todos esses anos. Vamos sentir saudades!

The last 20 years of leading Boston's best professional franchise has fostered nothing but goodwill for her husband, and leaving is surely going to be a big change in her life. It may sting for Patriots fans to see an NFL legend walk away, but it's clear that their previous support has had a profound effect on the entire Brady clan.

Her comments echoed Brady's own Instagram post thanking the city for an incredible ride with the Patriots. You know this isn't easy for TB12.

It's going to be strange seeing Brady in a Tampa Bay jersey starting next season. He's meant so much to New England, as his Gisele and their entire family.
