Thursday, November 14, 2024 - Seven-time Super Bowl champion, Tom Brady has revealed that he 'screwed up a lot' as a father amid divorce from supermodel, Gisele Bundchen.
Brady shares 17-year-old son Jack with Bridget Moynahan and
has a younger son and daughter Benjamin and Vivian with ex-wife Gisele.
Speaking at the 2024 Fortune Global Forum in New York
City, the legendary quarterback opened up on his parental shortcomings.
When asked about motivating his kids, Brady said, 'All of
the parents of 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,' he reiterated. 'I
don't wanna seem like I'm some sort of expert in parenting, because I'm
certainly not that.'
Brady then shared how he strives to be a good father and
told the audience his goal is to be 'dependable and consistent' for his kids.
He also stated being extremely supportive of his kids'
endeavors as he encourages them, admitting that it 'sucks to be Tom Brady's
son' as a boy.
'The blessing my parents gave me,' he said, 'was when I was
that longshot as a kid who was a backup quarterback on a freshman team, they
never said, 'Man, don't do that. It's going to be too hard. Let's do something
different. Let's think about another backup plan.'
'They kind of said, 'You know what? Go for it,'' he added.
'And that's probably my parenting style.
Brady's confession comes two weeks after
Bundchen announced her pregnancy with boyfriend and Jiu-Jitsu
instructor Joaquim Valente.
The pair began dating shortly after Brady and the Brazilian
model got divorced in October 2022.
