Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen began dating in December 2006 and then married in February 2009. But before the two even met, Bundchen admired Brady from afar. After dating actor Leonardo DiCaprio from 1999 to 2005, Bundchen went to a New England Patriots game for the first time. She saw a photo of the then-Patriots quarterback and thought he was 'cute'. At the time, he was in a relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan.
That was when Bundchen apparently drew the line, and she said that if he had a girlfriend then he was off-limits. She then went on to say that in her mind he was gay. Bundchen also mentioned that she wouldn't go after another woman's man, saying that life is too short and there are enough men in the world to do so.

“Tom Brady, definitely not too shabby. He’s cute, but if he has a girlfriend, he’s gay to me. There are too many men in the world to go after a man who has a woman. Life is too short."-Gisele Bundchen
It wasn't until a year later, shortly after Moynahan and Brady ended their two-year relationship, that Bundchen would begin dating the quarterback.
