Tom Brady was reportedly “stunned” when he heard that his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen was pregnant with the child of Joaquim Valente, a jiujitsu teacher whom Brady had introduced to her.
Brady might have retired from playing in the NFL, but he isn’t going to spend his time dating. As reported by Page Six on Tuesday, the 7-seven Super Bowl champion has clear priorities and dating is not one of them.
Instead, he is reportedly laser-focused on his work and his kids. Tom Brady has three children: an 11-year-old daughter, Vivian, and a 14-year-old son, Benjamin, with Gisele, and seventeen-year-old Jack with his ex-girlfriend, actress Bridget Moynahan.

“At the end of the day, Tom’s sole focus is on his children and his career. What Gisele decides to do with her own life is really none of his business,” the insider said, according to Page Six.
Another source told the publication that Brady was taken aback when he heard the news that things had gotten so serious between Gisele and the jiujitsu teacher that she was pregnant with his child:
“Tom knew that things were serious between Gisele and Joaquin, but he never imagined they would be having a child together. It just wasn’t something that was on his radar. So, when Gisele broke the news to him, he was stunned, to say the least.”
With the many gigs that he has signed up for and his recent approval to own a stake in the Las Vegas Raiders, he has less time on his hands. Unlike football, he is somewhat struggling to find his foothold as a color analyst.
Analysts rip apart Tom Brady for his color analyst role
Sports analyst Bill Simmons called out the seven-time Super Bowl champion for his unimpressive performance as a color analyst.
“He comes in at the beginning; he’s got this, like, fake energy, and none of it feels genuine to me,” he said.
According to Simmons, he expected Brady, being the greatest player in NFL history, to dish out advice, experience and wisdom from his two decades as a pro. However, during his broadcasts, he does nothing of that, according to Simmons.
It wasn’t just Simmons, however; Skip Bayless also called him out for his bland commentary, calling him the “Daniel Jones” of football commentary.
“Tom Brady drove me nuts yesterday with his endless, giddy, Captain Obvious blabber,” Bayless said. “He just talks and talks and talks some more about what is just so cliché-obvious.”
Tom Brady might have taken to football like a duck to water, but it seems that he will need time to become a great commentator.
