Could this be it?
Can you, as a surf fan, take anymore? The wild highs, the depressing lows of this ongoing saga involving Gisele Bündchen, her estranged husband Tom Brady and one-time flame Kelly Slater? It is, truly, almost too much but surf fans are, if anything, steady in wanting, needing to see a reconciliation between the Brazilian supermodel and her surfing champion.
As you may, or may not, know, the two dated from 2005 through 2006 and very successfully. Bünchen appeared on many magazine covers and walked many runways. Slater won two of his eleven world titles. A power couple we had not since Madonna dated our Kaipo Guerrero in 1985.
Bündchen and Slater represented a second coming but life, in the form of a dashing quarterback, got in the way.
Hope, though, has bubbled through and surf fans have lit candles, riding the wild highs and depressing lows in the same manner we follow the big wave career of current champion Filipe Toledo.
Days ago, it appeared as if Bündchen sent a coded message to Slater by saging her car. Days after that she visited a faith healer. And now? Well, hours ago, life coach Jay Shetty took to Instagram and penned, “You can’t be in a committed relationship with someone who is inconsistent. Read that again.”
A fine sentiment that Bündchen responded to with a praying hands emoji.
And there has been no more consistent surfer than Kelly Slater what with his aforementioned eleven world titles and also general je ne sais quoi. The Pipeline Master rarely breaks surprises in his long-held positions. He doesn’t like flat earthers and never has. He does, on the other hand, enjoy golf and always has. He is skeptical of big pharma, environmentally conscious, doesn’t “go along with the crowd,” etc.
As solid as a stone.
Concordant.
Could this be it?
Is there anything else we can light besides candles?

I think Slater has a girlfriend and he dont worry about money. His girlfriend must love this shit.
Best thing to happen to bradys life yet ! she has been nothing but a thorn in his side, never causing strife in his life until the beginning of the football season. But when he’s at the bowl acts like she his biggest fan.
Successfully dated. WTF does that even mean?
Can’t believe I read this crap!!!!!!
This article is disrespectful to Tom Brady!!!

Slater stories are ‘not’—anti-depressive, quite the opposite…
“Is there anything else we can light besides candles?” – I’m sure you’ll think of something Chas!

Don’t delay
Fill it, float it, forget it…
Poo Shooter, he’s ace
Coach Shetty…Dr. Newcomer…all of a sudden this turned into an Airplane sketch.
But seriously, how are you not chasing down Kaipo with regards to his Madonna ordeal? That’s the single most tabloidical sexploit by any waverider, ever. Burning genitals, not sage.
Where’s Wally/Waldo. How was the skate comp? Looked pretty exclusive.
