In his heartfelt caption, Brady reflected on the past year and looked forward to the future. He emphasized the importance of his children in his life, stating that there’s “no better perspective than looking at these three and always trying to be better for them each day.” He expressed gratitude for the joy and new experiences 2024 brought, especially those shared with his “three beautiful angels.”
Brady shares Jack with his ex-partner Bridget Moynahan, while Vivian and Benjamin are from his previous marriage to Gisele Bündchen. The quarterback frequently shares glimpses into his life as a father, often praising his children’s accomplishments and expressing his deep love for them. His New Year’s post is just the latest example of his dedication to his family. He concluded his message with a positive outlook for the coming year, wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2025 and affirming that “the best is yet to come.”
Brady’s reflections extend beyond the recent holiday season. Last month, he celebrated Vivian’s 12th birthday with a series of photos on Instagram, including a current picture of Vivian by the ocean, a snapshot from the 2024 Paris Olympics featuring the father-daughter duo by the Eiffel Tower, a throwback photo of baby Vivian, and pictures from a family tropical vacation. In his birthday tribute, Brady described Vivian as his “forever baby girl” and praised her for her love, compassion, and joy.
In November, Brady acknowledged Thanksgiving with an Instagram story showcasing his three children together. The photo captured the siblings smiling, with Benjamin and Jack noticeably taller than Vivian. The simple caption “Thankful for this crew ❤️ Happy Thanksgiving 🦃” conveyed the warmth and appreciation Brady feels for his family.
Beyond holiday celebrations, Brady has openly expressed admiration for his children’s individual qualities. In an April interview on DeepCut with VicBlends, he commended Jack’s maturity and academic achievements, marveling at his son’s ability to handle himself in various situations despite being only 16 years old. He described Jack as an amazing young man who puts his heart and soul into everything he does. Brady’s consistent public affirmations of his children underscore the central role they play in his life, both personally and as a source of inspiration.
