Former NFL quarterback Tom Brady and his ex-wife, supermodel Gisele Bündchen, were a power couple.
Although the couple 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 after news of their split broke, Brady posted a statement on Instagram, saying, “We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way.”
Now that the former Victoria’s Secret model is pregnant with her third child with boyfriend Joaquim Valente, here’s a look at the former couple’s blended family: Jack, Benjamin, and Vivian.
John “Jack” Moynahan, 17
Brady and Moynahan, who were together 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 moved on to his relationship with Bündchen, which began in January 2007. He revealed to Howard Stern in 2020 that Moynahan’s pregnancy was a shock. “Next thing you know, I found out that Bridget was pregnant with our son,” he said. “So that was a very unique time … and it challenged me in a lot of ways, again, to grow up in a different way. It was very hard for my wife to think she fell in love with this guy, and then now this guy’s ex-girlfriend’s pregnant.”
He added, “And it was very challenging for my son’s mom, you know, because she didn’t envision that either.”
However, the worries about their situation diminished over time. In 2011, Moynahan told More, “My son has two loving parents and an extended family, whether it’s cousins or stepmothers or boyfriends. My son is surrounded by love.”
In April 2024, while on DeepCut with VicBlends, Brady spoke highly of his son, saying Jack “handles himself 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 City and puts his heart and soul into everything he does. I mean, he just blows me away with who he is,” he added.
Benjamin Rein Brady, 14
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 have a home birth,” Bündchen shared in Brady’s Man in the Arena ESPN series. “He was like, ‘Absolutely not,’ and I was like, ‘Excuse me, you don’t get to choose that; it’s my body.'” Even though Brady was initially not on board, he reflected, “Being there with G at his birth in our home lives in my mind. I think we brought this boy into the world in the most precious way.”
As for Benjamin’s interests, music seems to be where their son’s talents shine. In 2023, Brady told PEOPLE that his kids sing and play piano, adding, “It’s interesting; my son plays by ear too. He doesn’t like looking at notes, so he hears something and tries to play it. He’s very talented. It’s really fun for me to see.”
“It allows me to pay more attention to the things that they’re interested in,” he said. “And it helps us grow in a lot of ways that we didn’t think were possible had we not had these little amazing beings that come into our lives.”
Vivian Lake Brady, 11
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, just to understand at least a little bit about what makes a woman tick—not that I can certainly figure that out, because I can’t. She’s a beautiful little girl.”
Like her mother, Bündchen, Vivian has shown a keen interest in yoga, meditation, and equestrian activities, particularly horse jumping. In September 2023, Bündchen revealed to PEOPLE that Vivian wants to be a “professional horseback rider” and is “obsessed” with the sport. So much so that Bündchen bought a horse farm in Florida for her to ride in private.
Recently, Brady took Vivian to Paris for the 2024 Olympics to watch equestrian, basketball, tennis, gymnastics, and more. He shared a recap on Instagram of his favorite moments from their three days at the Games, mentioning in the caption, “We saw athletes from many sports and many countries, but it was especially meaningful to be able to come to this incredible city with my daughter and watch the most powerful women I’ve ever seen.”
He also noted that this was the “first time in Olympic history there was a 50:50 split of female and male athletes, a stat [he] was proud to tell Vivi as she watched these heroes compete.”
