After former power couple Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady shockingly split up in early 2023, many wondered what their next steps in life would be. Brady is well into retirement, and had his brief fling with supermodel Irina Shayk, but Bündchen? She’s absolutely thriving, especially in the financial department.

Bündchen stepped away from her modeling career for years to raise her and Brady’s children. But when their divorce came out to the media, musings of her return to modeling came soon after; which she later confirmed.

And in her return to modeling, experts believe she could make as much as $20 million from this year alone, per Daily Mail.

This hefty paycheck is mainly thanks to her numerous modeling campaigns with designers like Gaia Herbs, Louis Vuitton, and being the poster girl for Frame’s 2023 winter collection, along with her Vogue Italia cover, Vogue Brazil cover, and already generating buzz for her upcoming cookbook Nourish: Simple Recipes to Empower Your Body and Feed Your Soul.

Before Bündchen took her hiatus, she was the highest-paid model in the world from 2002 to 2017, per Celebrity Net Worth. And with this comeback, it seems she’s ready to get that title again!

Now, ahead of her comeback, she told Elle about how she has a lot to do with her career. “I’ve done my part, which is to be there for [Brady]. I moved to Boston, and I focused on creating a cocoon and a loving environment for my children to grow up in and to be there supporting him and his dreams,” she said. “I have a huge list of things that I have to do, that I want to do.”
