Former NFL quarterback Tom Brady and his ex-wife, supermodel Gisele Bündchen, were a strong couple.
Although the pair divorced in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage, they built a beautiful life together with their three children: one from Brady’s previous relationship with ex Bridget Moynahan and two with Bündchen. Shortly before news of their split became public, Brady posted a statement on Instagram, saying: «We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will remain the center of our world in every way».
Now, as former Victoria’s Secret model Bündchen is pregnant with her third child with boyfriend Joakim Valente, let’s take a look at the blended family of the former couple: Jack, Benjamin, and Vivian.
Brady and Moynahan, who dated from 2004 to 2006, welcomed their son, John «Jack» Edward Thomas Moynahan, on August 22, 2007 in Santa Monica, California.
By that time, Brady had already started a relationship with Bündchen, which began in January 2007. He told Howard Stern in 2020 that Moynahan’s pregnancy was a shock to him. «And then I found out Bridget was pregnant with our son», - he said. «It was a very unique time… and it presented a lot of challenges for me to grow up in a different way. It was very hard for my wife to think that she fell in love with this guy, and now this guy’s ex-girlfriend is pregnant».
He added: «And it was very hard for the mother of my son, because she didn’t foresee that either».
However, concerns about their situation eventually lessened. In 2011, Moynahan told More magazine: «My son has two loving parents and an extended family, whether it’s cousins, stepmothers, or boyfriends. My son is surrounded by love».
In April 2024, while at DeepCut with VicBlends, Brady spoke highly of his son, saying that Jack «behaves so well in groups of people».
«I see him at 16, and I’m like, how are you so mature? [He] lives in New York and puts his heart into everything he does. I mean, he just amazes me with his personality», - he added.
Brady and Bündchen married in February 2009 and welcomed their first child together, Benjamin Rein, on December 8, 2009 in Boston.
«It was a home birth, and it was funny because he didn’t want me to give birth at home», - Bündchen shared in the ESPN series «Man in the Arena» with Brady. «He was like, 'Absolutely not,' and I was like, 'Sorry, but you can’t choose this; it’s my body.' Although Brady initially didn’t approve of the idea, he noted: «Being there with G at his birth in our home remains in my memory. I think we brought this boy into the world in the most precious way».
As for Benjamin’s interests, music seems to be where the son showcases his talents. In 2023, Brady told PEOPLE that his children sing and play the piano, adding: «It's interesting; my son also plays by ear. He doesn’t like to look at notes, so he hears something and tries to play it. He’s very talented. I really enjoy seeing that».
«It allows me to pay more attention to what interests them», - he said. «And it helps us grow in many ways we wouldn’t have thought of if we didn’t have these little amazing beings coming into our lives».
In 2012, the couple welcomed their second child together, daughter Vivian Lake, on December 5 in Boston.
A few days after her birth, Brady told ESPN: «I grew up in a house with three sisters. I think it’s great for my boys to have a girl in the house, to at least somewhat understand what makes a woman tick — not that I can really understand it, because I can’t. She’s a lovely little girl».
Like her mother, Bündchen, Vivian has shown a great interest in yoga, meditation, and equestrian sports, especially horse jumping. In September 2023, Bündchen told PEOPLE that Vivian wants to become a «professional rider»
