Tom Brady went through a tremendous change during the 2022-2023 Super Bowl season. The former Tampa Bay Buccaneers star QB not only ended his career on February 1 but also ended his 13-year-long marriage in October. He and his former lady love, Gisele Bündchen, shared precious moments together. But the decision was inevitable. While the two were separating, many wanted to know who got the custody of their two children, Benjamin Rein and Vivian Lake. 

Their mutual friend set the then-New England Patriots QB and the former Victoria’s Secret Angel up on a blind date in 2006. The Brazilian model knew right away that TB12 was the man of her dreams. Thus, started their intense affair which turned into marriage in 2009. Even though everything was dreamy and romantic while they dated, Brady’s ex, actress Bridget Moynahan, hit them with the unexpected news of her pregnancy.

Moynahan, best known for her work as a lead in ‘Blue Blood’, dated Tampa Tom from 2004 to 2006. After their breakup, Brady started dating Bündchen. But, as mentioned earlier, Moynahan made Brady and Bündchen aware of the situation. Understandably, it came as a shock to Gisele, who even suggested an unbelievable thing. Hence, under these circumstances was born the first son of Brady, John ‘Jack’ Moynahan, in 2007.
