In April 2022 Brady called working fatherhood “difficult to reconcile” on a podcast episode, but since separating from the model and stepping back from the game, has made his kids a priority.

On Father’s Day this year he posted on Instagram that “Being a dad is the best thing in my life” and said his kids have taught him how to cherish every moment, admitting that he is “still working on this daily” because “that’s what matters most”, according to US media.

Here’s what you need to know about Tom Brady’s three kids:

1. Jack Moynahan, 16

Tom Brady shares his firstborn son John “Jack” Edward Thomas with his ex-girlfriend, actress Bridget Moynahan.

The 16-year-old was born in 2007 in Santa Monica, California. According to People, Moynahan got pregnant just before she split up with Brady, and the athlete had already started dating Bündchen by the time of the baby’s birth.

Bündchen told People, “I call him my bonus child.”

Last year, Brady spoke about how excited he was to see his eldest son playing as a quarterback for his high school American football team. “I love watching him play quarterback because I think there’s very few things in life that I could probably help him with,” Brady said on his podcast. “You know, I don’t have a lot of specialities in life other than probably throwing the football.” He added, “He’s way smarter. He’s got a great work ethic”.

2. Benjamin Rein Brady, 13

Brady married his then-girlfriend, Victoria’s Secret model Gisele Bündchen in 2009, and they had their first child together, Benjamin, later that year.

In an episode of Let’s Go! With Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray in September, Brady said his son was also showing some interest in American football. He said that Benjamin wanted to be a tight end like Rob Gronkowski. “So I actually texted Gronk and I’m like, ‘Yo, my boy wants to be like you!’ And he loved it,” said the proud dad.
