What to know about Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen's kids
Tom Brady is a football legend who is also a proud father of three children.
The former NFL quarterback shares two children, son Benjamin and daughter Vivian, with his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen.
Brady is also the father of son John "Jack" Edward Thomas Moynahan from a previous relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan.
At the start of 2025, Brady shared a photo of his three kids on Instagram, writing, in part, "I couldn't have imagined a better way to ring in the new year than with the loves of my life. Reflecting on last year and thinking about the year ahead, there's no better perspective than looking at these three and always trying to be better for them each day, and helping to guide them in whatever way possible."
The Super Bowl-winning quarterback spoke candidly about the difficulties of parenting at the 2024 Fortune Global Forum in New York City.
"[People] in the room know that being a parent is probably the hardest job all of us have, and we screw up a lot, and I've screwed up a lot as a parent," Brady admitted, according to a clip shared on X. "So, I don't want to seem like I'm some expert in parenting, because I'm certainly not that."
Brady went onto to say that he focuses on simply supporting his three kids, whom he described as "amazing."
"I just try to be there. I try to just be dependable and consistent for them," he said, adding that he models his support after his parents, whom he said supported him early on when he was a backup quarterback. "And honestly, whatever our kids choose, as we know, to do whatever they want to do in life, we got to support."
Bündchen and Brady announced their decision to divorce in 2022, after 13 years of marriage.
Since then, Bündchen -- who welcomed her third child, a son, in 2025 -- has spoken openly about co-parenting with Brady.
"It's natural that [they] have different rules and then kids just adapt," Bündchen told ABC News' Robin Roberts in an interview that aired in March. "I can only control what I do. There's easier days than others, but I think the kids -- they're super smart children. They know what they can get away with."
Benjamin Rein Brady was born Dec. 8, 2009.
The now-teenager was seen by his dad's side throughout his legendary NFL career and appears to have inherited his dad's football instincts.
On Dec. 8, 2024, Brady marked Benjamin's birthday on Instagram, writing, in part, "I'm so proud of the young man you are... You're a student, artist, athlete, musician, and teammate… but most of all you're the best brother and son anyone could ask for. You pour so much into everything you do, and it shows in the way you inspire others around you."
One of the photos Brady shared on Instagram to mark Benjamin's 14th birthday in 2023 showed the teen in a football uniform with the number 12, the same number Brady wore during his NFL career.
Brady has said previously on his SiriusXM show, "Let's Go! With Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray," that he practices "throwing the ball" to Benjamin in the backyard.
"He's gonna be a little beast," Brady said, adding that Benjamin chose to play tight end instead of following in his dad's footsteps as quarterback.

In a separate Instagram post, Bündchen noted that Benjamin, her eldest child, now stands as tall as she does, writing, "One day your baby will stand as tall as you are. And you won't be ready for it."
Bündchen told People magazine last September that at Benjamin's first football game, she heard from others about his kindness.
"He just started, and his first game was so nice," she said. "It was nice to go because I had all the little friends come to me and be like, 'Oh my God, I love Benny. I love Vivi. They're so nice. He helped me with this.'"
Vivian Lake Brady
Vivian Lake Brady was born Dec. 5, 2012.

Brady marked Vivian's 12th birthday in 2024 with a photo of her smiling and sweet note in the caption, calling her "my forever baby girl."
"Watching you grow and chase after your dreams are the proudest moments of my life," he wrote. "Your love, compassion, and joy fill up every room that you're in, and will always make your daddy smile. You light up my life! ... Here's to a great day filled with all the laughter and love that you deserve. I love you infinity x infinity!!! ❤️❤️❤️."
John "Jack" Edward Thomas Moynahan
John "Jack" Edward Thomas Moynahan Brady was born Aug. 22, 2007, to Brady and Moynahan.
Brady celebrated Jack on his 17th birthday in 2024, writing on Instagram, "Happy 17th birthday to the kindest, sweetest, most thoughtful 17-year-old, I know. You are truly a blessing in my life and I am so grateful to watch you mature into a young man."
Throughout his childhood, he has split his time between his mom and Brady, who began dating Bündchen the same year Jack was born.
Bündchen has referred to Jack as her "bonus son" and posted a tribute to him on Instagram last August to mark his 16th birthday.
"I am so lucky to have you in my life and I will always be here for you no matter what! Love you so much!" she wrote then.
Bündchen also described her co-parenting relationship with Moynahan as a "team," telling Vanity Fair in March, "I put myself in her shoes and I was like, 'How can I support her?' Because in the end of the day, we are team players in 'How are we going to do this so [Jack] can have the best life?'"
Like his younger brother Benjamin, Jack is also an athlete, excelling at basketball, according to Brady's Instagram posts.

Bill Belichick-Jordon Hudson drama revealed in new emails
Emails obtained by WRAL show Bill Belichick addressing the controversy over his romantic and professional relationship with Jordon Hudson. The relationship between the legendary coach and the 24-year-old model has drawn national scrutiny after a controversial "CBS Sunday Morning" interview. Hudson declared, "We're not talking about that" when Belichick was asked about how the couple met. Belichick claimed in one email that CBS "secretly" had a camera focused on Hudson despite the model requesting to sit off camera. "Secretly, CBS had a camera focused on Jordon where Lead producer Gabe instructed her to sit," Belichick reportedly wrote. Belichick elaborated on why the question of how they met was not answered. "I met Jordon randomly on a flight to Palm Beach in 2021. That is no secret. Jordon was not dodging the specific question regarding how we met, but rather was preventing the interview from continuing to probe into personal matters," the email said. Belichick also addressed why Hudson was present at the interview to begin with. He believed the interview would be focused on his book, "The Art of Winning: Lessons from a Life in Football." "Jordon was present at the CBS interview because David Kass, the Simon & Schuster publicist, was not there," Belichick wrote, referring to the publisher of his book. "I included Jordon in the book acknowledgments because she was a creative contributor to the book, including having the idea for formatting the 4 special pages in the book." In another email, Belichick addressed reports that he requested to have Hudson copied on every email sent to him. "Jordon and I have both a personal & professional relationship," Belchick wrote in the email. "This is not a secret. Jordon assists me with my personal media, which is why I asked UNC to forward media requests (E.G. CBS 60 Minutes) to her. Jordon has zero involvement in the UNC football program, beyond the degree that my personal media intersects with it." Belichick released a statement saying he was "surprised" about getting the questions about his relationship and that when Hudson had stepped in, she was doing her job. He went on to accuse CBS of creating a "false narrative" with so-called "selectively edited clips." CBS responded, disagreeing with Belichick's version of events. In a separate interview with ESPN, Belichick insisted Hudson is not involved with UNC football. Follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson apologizes for red card in Club World Cup loss to Flamengo
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Nicolas Jackson apologized to Chelsea fans after he was sent off with a red card during the team's 3-1 loss to Flamengo in the Club World Cup on Friday. Trailing the Brazilians 2-1, the striker was sent off in the 68th minute with a straight red just four minutes after replacing Liam Delap for a studs-up tackle on Flamengo defender Ayrton Lucas. 'I want to say sorry. To the club, the staff, my teammates, and all the fans watching, I let you down. Another red card ... and honestly, I'm so angry at myself,' he wrote on Instagram. 'I work hard every day to help the team not to put us in this situation.' The red means that the Senegalese international won't be available to play on Tuesday when Chelsea faces Esperance with a spot in the round of 16 on the line. Jackson was also shown a red card last month in Chelsea's 2-0 loss to Newcastle. 'It happened against Newcastle and it happened today. Probably today I am not 100 percent sure it's a red card compared to the Newcastle one,' Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca said. 'So it's a little bit of a bad moment for Nico in this kind of things.' FIFA could give Jackson a longer suspension if it chooses to review the tackle. 'I'll reflect, I'll grow and I'll come back stronger for the badge and for everyone who believes in me,' Jackson concluded his post. 'Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.' ___ AP soccer:

NFC West quarterbacks fall into 2 tiers entering 2025
Find out where CBS Sports puts Matthew Stafford, Brock Purdy, Kyler Murray and Sam Darnold in their 2025 QB tiers. The NFL is done with all offseason work and it is the time of year where we get lists and rankings of all sorts. CBS Sports' Cody Benjamin ranked and tiered all 32 projected starting quarterbacks for 2025. The tiers? Arizona Cardinals fans will have interest in seeing where the quarterbacks in the NFC West fall? While we did focus on Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray already, let's see about all four starters in the division. NFC West quarterback tiers The four starters in the division fall into two categories: Borderline stars Matthew Stafford of the Los Angeles Rams and Brock Purdy of the San Francisco 49ers fall here, and they are fairly tiered. Stafford has been elite talent for much of his career, but now he is a little less consistent and needs his playmakers to do more, while Purdy, after MVP-type production, saw his play level out after he missed top offensive players. Volatile veterans Murray probably should be up in the borderline star tier, but he hasn't looked like that since 2021. He isn't necessarily volatile because, at his worst, he plays at a league-average level. Seattle's Sam Darnold is the face of volatile veteran. While his 2024 season showed the level of play he could reach when he was drafted third overall in 2018, he has been wildly inconsistent in his career, prone to turnovers. he won't have the weapons he had in Minnesota, so he will have to prove himself again with the Seahawks.
