Tom Brady Calls Fatherhood ‘The Best Thing In My Life’
By Movieguide® Contributor
Tom Brady shared his feelings about fatherhood in a sweet Instagram post in honor of Father’s Day.
The retired football player paid tribute to both his father and his children in the post, sharing pictures of all of them.
Brady shares Jack, 15, with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan and Benjamin, 12, and Vivian, 9, with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen.
“On this Father’s Day, all I can think of is how grateful I am to have been raised by the world’s best Dad, and to now have three beautiful angels of my own who I have the joy of watching grow up,” Brady wrote.
He continued, “Being a Dad is the best thing in my life. I have learned so much about what it takes from my Dad and to be able to pass that on to Jack, Benny and Vivi means the world to me. They have taught me how to be present (still working on this daily ?)and cherish every moment (mostly?) that we have as a family, because that’s what matters most. Their love for others and constant selflessness makes me so proud to be their dad, and I know those traits come directly from everyone who is part of their life.”
Brady finished his post by thanking his dad “for being you,” and his kids “for giving me the pleasure of being your Dad.”
The NFL star frequently talks about how important family is to him. Movieguide® previously reported:
Future NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady played 20 seasons with the New England Patriots and won six super bowls.
In 2020, Brady went to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and led them to a Super Bowl win in 2021, making him the winningest QB in NFL history.
At 44 years old, Brady has spent more time reflecting on his career, family and future.
Despite his following, Brady still champions his family as his most outstanding achievement, which he often talks about on his social media.
“If you look at my social, I want that to be fun and reflective. I want people to enjoy it,” he told Variety. “Lives are hard. I feel like I’m the kid who grew up in San Mateo, Calif., that found something I love to do. And it came with a lot of other stuff. Trying to manage and juggle that is my own unique challenge in my life — and to not lose touch with what’s really important, which is being a good dad, having a good family. And then the things I’m doing — committing to my team — I want to be good in those things too.”
