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.

Billie Eilish's Brother Makes Shocking Claim About L.A. Protests originally appeared on Parade. Finneas, the older brother and longtime collaborator of , says he was 'tear-gassed' while at the protests in Los Angeles over the weekend. Finneas (also known as Finneas O'Connell) has not shied away from controversial political messages since becoming famous alongside his sister. Finneas has written and produced music for his sister, including her breakthrough album, When We All Fall Alseep, Where Do We Go? and her Oscar-winning songs 'No Time To Die' and 'What Was I Made For.' He has also collaborated with a variety of other artists, in addition to his own music. And while Fineas would presumably prefer to use his platform to promote The Favors, his new duo with singer-songwriter Ashe, that wasn't the case on Sunday. Finneas was reportedly at the protests in his native Los Angeles. It's unclear whether Finneas participated in the demonstrations against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for detaining dozens across Southern California, or if he was an observer. 'Tear gassed almost immediately at the very peaceful protests [in Downtown Los Angeles],' he posted on his Instagram Story, before claiming, 'They're inciting this.' Finneas also shared many messages in support of the protestors and messages denouncing President Donald Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard. Billie and Finneas have been politically active for years. In June 2020, the 'Bad Guy' singer attended a Black Lives Matter march in Los Angeles to protest the killing of George Floyd, per The Independent. Billie also spoke out during her 2022 Glastonbury performance following the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade, per the BBC.

Woman Finds 16-Year-Old Pomeranian Keeps Escaping—So She Sets Up Hidden Cam
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A senior dog who had managed to escape through a gate several times left her owners puzzled until a secret camera revealed her sneaky way to freedom. Owner Jordan Quick of Washington purchased a play yard dog gate off Facebook Marketplace to use as a divider between the living room and workspace near the kitchen. It was meant to keep the dogs out of the area. However, it didn't seem to work for the family's senior canine, Remi. For about two days, Quick noticed the family's nearly 16-year-old Pomeranian somehow escaping the gate and ending up in the kitchen, which the owners block off while their toddler eats because of all the dropped food. "After a few times of my husband and I asking each other who put Remi on the other side of the gate, I decided to set up my camera to figure out exactly how she's getting through," Quick told Newsweek. As it turns out, there had been a small opening in the gate due to a missing pole. This left the perfect amount of room for Remi to squeeze her way through and out to freedom on the other side. Screenshots from a June 2 Instagram video that revealed how a senior Pomeranian kept escaping through a newly purchased gate.

"Only one of our other two dogs has used the small opening to get in the kitchen when he was motivated enough, but typically, they both know to wait on the other side," Quick said. As for the senior canine, she still gets away with escaping. Quick said they have yet to fix the gap, allowing Remi to come and go as she pleases. What Do the Comments Say? "We thought it was pretty funny, and I thought others would enjoy seeing her sneak right through, so that's where the video came from," she said, which proved true. The June 1 Instagram video, posted under Quick's account, @jordanwithallthedogs, brought in over 229,000 views and 19,000 likes. "That wasn't even a slight hassle," a viewer commented. "All fluff, no stuffin," a second commenter said, while another wrote: "All that fluff was deceiving." A fourth Instagram user commented: "I kept watching, waiting for the dog to jump I almost didn't see the other dog walk through the fence."

Bears dubbed likely worst-to-first team in 2025
The Chicago Bears have been one of the biggest offseason winners as they've improved their team across the board, starting with the hiring of Ben Johnson as head coach. The Bears already have a young, rising star in quarterback Caleb Williams, and they've prioritized his development with the addition of Johnson, as well as the overhauling of the entire interior offensive line and some new weapons added to the mix. Chicago also added defensive tackle Grady Jarrett and defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo, along with a potential impact draft class. Advertisement But the question remains: Is this finally the year where the NFL's offseason champions finally see the product translate on the field during the regular season? ESPN's Aaron Schatz ranked the NFL's most likely worst-to-first teams for the 2025 season. And not only did the Bears make the list, but they were second only to the San Francisco 49ers. The Bears finished 22nd in FPI last season, but they're seen as above-average entering the 2025 season. That's because Caleb Williams should improve in his second year under center, and the Bears added a lot of talent on the offensive line to give him better protection. There's also a lot of optimism about new coach Ben Johnson, but it's important to remember that teams with new coaches and coordinators tend to take a small step back in the first season. We may not notice this because new coaching staffs are usually brought in after particularly bad seasons, making a slight improvement a simple regression toward the mean. The biggest issue holding the Bears back this season is that they have the second-hardest schedule in the NFL, per my DVOA rankings (more on the hardest schedule later). All three other NFC North teams (Vikings, Lions and Packers) made the postseason in 2024, and only Minnesota is expected to decline in 2025. We've seen this film before. The Bears have an impactful offseason with high-flying expectations only the crap the bed when the season begins. But this year feels different with Johnson's arrival, and his impact is already being felt by the players inside the locker room. Sure, the Bears have the second-most difficult schedule in the NFL. Yes, they play in a tough NFC North division. But they also have the leader and the roster talent to make waves. And if Johnson can unlock Williams early in Year 1, the sky's the limit.
