In a statement at the time, Brady said the decision for the divorce was "amicable".

In his latest farewell, an emotional Brady told fans: "I'll get to the point right away. I'm retiring. For good.

"I know the process was a pretty big deal last time so I woke up this morning I figured I'd just press record and let you guys know first so, it won't be long winded.

"You only get one super emotional retirement essay and I used mine up last year, so really thank you guys so much for supporting me.
