Gisele Bündchen was one of FTX's biggest equity holders, and says she was 'blindsided' by its collapse

• Gisele Bündchen said she was 'blindsided' by FTX's bankruptcy. 
• The fashion model told Vanity Fair she initially 'trusted the hype.' 
• Her FTX stake may have been worth around $25 million before the company collapsed, according to some estimates.

International supermodel Gisele Bündchen was among the top equity holders of the collapsed crypto exchange FTX, alongside her ex-husband the NFL legend Tom Brady. 

But now, as Sam Bankman-Fried awaits trial in the aftermath of the collapse of his crypto empire, Bündchen has spoken about the FTX bankruptcy for the first time.
