‘Tom vs. Time‘, a docu-series featuring the insides of the GOAT’s life during the off-season, gives its viewers glances into Brady’s life with ex-wife Gisele Bundchen and their kids on Facebook Watch. The series was an instant hit, with the first two episodes creating all the hype around all the nuances of Tom Brady’s life. The third episode, rather a small moment from the third episode, was where the fans started frowning.

While Brady was indulging in a body treatment, his son, John Edwards Brady Moynahan, dropped in after checking up on him. When Brady asked a sweet, “What do I get? ” John gave him a small peck. However, after John pulled away Tom Brady asked John for another ‘real kiss‘ which, per Nikki Glaser, “Lingered for like two seconds, two and a half seconds or something like that and it made people uncomfortable and everyone made fun of him.”

The additional linger sparked harsh criticism against Tom Brady then, with fans accusing him of several scandalous things. However, he still had the support of some. However, the ‘Lover and Lies’ host, Nikki Glaser, seemingly swallowed her previously sour words about the GOAT, changing her statement about the scene.

“I have reassessed the footage. I’ve watched it back. We have now called it totally acceptable. He is a loving father. The kid was just like, ‘I want to go play games’. He wasn’t like, ‘Gross dad, I don’t want to kiss you’. It was as if a kid was being told, ‘Come here and give me a hug’. It was like it’s the way they show affection. It was not creepy at all,” Glaser confessed in her recent podcast episode.

Glaser also didn’t shy away from admitting, “I was the biggest critic of that footage ever because I didn’t know anything about him.” What Glaser was admitting now, Brady and his supporters had admitted long back.

Tom Brady, however, stood strong in his defense, protecting the innocent bond between his 11-year-old and him. “I had kissed my son in a very loving way—I love my children more than life itself,” Brady said in an interview with Bright Side, shooting down each allegation against him, closing each road for internet detractors for further commenting anything foul about his son and him.
