New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and Brazilian model Gisele Bundchen celebrated their ninth wedding anniversary on Feb. 26.

Both posted tributes to their anniversary on Instagram, writing captions in both English and Portuguese.

“What a ride this past 9 years have been. I love learning and growing with you. Happy anniversary love of my lifey! Te amo muito! ❤😘 Que aventura tem sido esses últimos 9 anos. Amo aprender e crescer contigo. Feliz aniversário amor da minha vida!” Bundchen captioned a photo of the two on their wedding day in 2009.

Brady also posted a picture from their wedding day, captioning it, “Live, Laugh, Love…..and I Love You! Feliz Aniversário! Te Amo muito!!❤💍😍.”

Brady famously told GQ in 2009 that the two planned their wedding in just 10 days.

“We went back to the house and I barbecued aged New York strips,” Brady told GQ. “We had champagne, a cake, some ice cream. It was a great night. I think you always have this idea that weddings need to be 200 people and you invite everybody, and I’m all for it if people want to do that, but I think there was really something special about just having our parents there.”

The couple then had a larger wedding in Costa Rica, but they only invited 40 people, and still primarily kept the guest list restricted to family members, Brady said.

“The thing about it is, the day’s for you,” Brady told GQ. “It’s nothing personal against anybody, but it’s not about them. It’s about what you and your wife need for that day.”

Bundchen and Brady have two children together, eight-year-old Benjamin and five-year-old Vivian Lake. The couple was rumored to be heading for a divorce back in 2015, but Brady had quickly refuted the claims, telling WEEI’s Dennis and Callahan that he was “a lucky man” and has “been very blessed with support from my family and certainly [Bundchen].”
