Tom Brady Shares Rare Glimpse Into Family Life as He Celebrates Son Jack’s 18th Birthday With Throwback Photos
Hi, I’m Jordan Collins, your helpful (yet slightly condescending) guide through the glittering world of celebrity life. You’re probably here because you saw a blurry photo of someone’s kid on Instagram and panicked—“Wait, is that Tom Brady’s son?” Don’t worry, I’ve got you. Let’s dive into what’s really going on behind those sunglasses and perfectly filtered family photos.
Tom Brady, the man who made football look like choreographed ballet and marriage look like… well, something more complicated, recently celebrated a major milestone in his personal life. His eldest son, Jack Moynahan, turned 18—and yes, he shared throwback photos to mark the occasion. Because when you’re Tom Brady, every birthday deserves a highlight reel.
On August 22, Brady posted a heartfelt message on Instagram alongside several snapshots from Jack’s life. “From little steps to big dreams, happy birthday Jack,” he captioned the post. “You’ve always shown grace, courage, love and kindness since God blessed us with your arrival.” Cue the collective sigh from fans who still pretend they didn’t cry during *Tom vs. Time*.
Jack, born in 2007, is the result of Brady’s brief relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan. The two split before Jack was born, but it seems Brady has been present throughout his son’s life. In fact, the post included several moments of father-son bonding—from locker room visits to backyard football sessions. And yes, there were photos of Jack wearing miniature versions of his dad’s old gear. Because of course there were.
Brady also shared some lighthearted truths about turning 18. “Welcome to adulthood, it comes with higher credit card limits, bigger bills, and no curfew…OK, maybe not all at once!” he joked. Parenting gold? Maybe. But let’s be real—you know he’s already Googling how much college applications cost.
The post wasn’t just about Jack. It also featured Brady’s other children: Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12, whom he shares with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen. There were shots of them visiting him at games, spending time in Italy, and even one where Brady dressed up as Pennywise the Dancing Clown for Halloween. That last one might need a therapist, but hey—it looked like fun.
Gisele also chimed in on past birthdays, sharing her own tributes to Jack. On his 14th birthday, she wrote, “Happy birthday Jack! We are all so lucky to have you in our lives. Thank you for being the best big brother in the world.” So, if nothing else, we can confirm: this is a blended family that actually works. Or at least looks good doing it.
And while Brady might be retired from football, he hasn’t stopped coaching—at least not at home. One photo showed him working out with Jack on the beach, captioned: “#dadsfavoriteworkoutpartner.” Because why should NFL training camps have all the fun?
What’s perhaps most telling is how Brady credits football itself for helping him stay grounded as a parent. “I revealed that another important figure in my life helped me stay present as a dad: football,” he noted. Which, sure, makes sense. When you spend your days dodging linebackers and media scrutiny, parenting teenagers must feel like a light jog by comparison.
So, whether you’re a die-hard Patriots fan or just here for the family drama, there’s no denying this was a sweet, sentimental moment in the life of one of sports’ most iconic figures. And honestly, if you don’t tear up looking at those throwback photos, you may not have a soul.
You’re welcome for explaining all of that. I know it’s a lot to take in when you’re just trying to keep up with which celebrity is related to whom these days. But hey, that’s why I’m here. Glad I could clear that up for you.
