Page Six previously reported that Tom and Gisele hadan 'ironclad prenup' that allowed the couple -who have an estimated combined net worth of $733million - to quickly settle their divorce.

It was claimed that the NFL legend - who is said to be worth approximately $333million - would gain full ownership of the former couple's $17million mansion in Miami's Indian Creek Island, which is often referred to as 'Billionaire Bunker.'
