Tom Brady's difficult 2022 has gotten worse, as the Bucs star and his ex-wife Gisele Bundchen have been caught up in the crash of cryptocurrency exchange FTX.

FTX saw more than $6billion in withdrawals in the 72 hours leading up to Tuesday, and the market value of the exchange crashed by 70 percent this week as concerns about its financial health mounted.

The company's CEO Sam Bankman-Fried lost an estimated $14.6bn - 94 percent of his net worth - overnight, according to Bloomberg, after FTX struck a bailout deal with rival company Binance.
