Supermodel Gisele Bündchen, who divorced Tom Brady in 2022, told police 'nothing protects me'
Gisele Bündchen breaks down in tears after being pulled over
Gisele Bündchen broke down in tears when she was pulled over after trying to evade the paparazzi, telling the officer nothing can protect her.
Gisele Bündchen had a run-in with police that ended in tears.
The supermodel was driving around Surfside, Florida, on Wednesday when she was stopped by police for driving erratically. The officer who pulled her over let her go without issuing a ticket, but in bodycam footage obtained by Fox News Digital, she quickly became emotional.
"I was just trying to stay [away] from that guy," Bündchen told the officer, referring to a paparazzo who had been pursuing her.

The officer acknowledged that he knew who she was and understood the situation, but told her that he couldn't do anything to help her with it.
"Yeah, but he's, like, stalking me," she said.
Bündchen was told she'd have to file a report with the police in Miami Beach, since that's where the photographer originally began tailing her. The officer apologized for not being able to do more, and that's when she began crying.

"I'm so tired," Bündchen said through tears. "Everywhere I go I have these f---ing guys after me. Nothing protects me. I can't do nothing. I just want to live my life."
"I can't prevent them from doing their job, which is to take pictures," the officer responded as she sobbed.
"I don't know how that's allowed," she told him.
He asked if he could do anything else for her, and she said no, then thanked him.
Reps for Bundchen did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Bündchen moved to Miami in 2020 with then-husband Tom Brady and their two children, Benjamin and Vivian, when the since-retired quarterback joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After their divorce was finalized in 2022, she continued living in the area.
Last month, the model became emotional for a different reason, during an intimate interview in which she was asked about Brady.

"You didn’t think the marriage would end," Robin Roberts asked her.
"And it's heartbreaking, you know, to go through that," Bündchen responded.
"You said it was, I think the phrase you used, the ‘death of a dream,'" Roberts said, referencing public remarks Bündchen made after the divorce was finalized. "How are you?"

"Well, when you say…" she began before turning her head away from the camera. "Sorry, guys, I didn’t know, can I have a little moment?" Bündchen asked, trying to collect herself.

After doing some breathing exercises, Bündchen got introspective, telling Roberts that the divorce was "a transition that had to take place."
"I don't think you wish for that, you know. But I think sometimes in life things happen… I feel so blessed because, like, I wouldn't change anything in my life. I had incredible experiences, I learned so much, I have my children, which are the biggest blessings in my life," she told Roberts. "I get to learn new things… I'm grateful for all of it. I'm grateful for every lesson."
