Tom Brady is spreading love and appreciation this Mother’s Day, acknowledging the incredible women in his life, including his exes, Gisele Bündchen and Bridget Moynahan, for their roles as mothers. Brady took to Instagram to share a heartfelt message of gratitude, posting touching photos that celebrate the amazing mothers who have helped shape his family.
In a series of Instagram Stories shared on May 10, 2026, Brady shared several images, including one of Gisele Bündchen kissing his son Jack Moynahan, now 18, while his ex-wife Bridget smiled at the camera. This picture, from years ago, captures a poignant family moment—before Jack had outgrown his parents. As Brady humorously pointed out, even at 6’4″, he now finds himself looking up to his eldest son.
A Nod to All the Important Moms in His Life
In addition to honoring Gisele and Bridget, Brady posted a special message dedicated to the mothers in his life. “Happy Mother’s Day to the best mom in the world,” Brady captioned a photo of his own mother, Galynn Brady, cradling her granddaughter, Vivian Lake. Galynn, a breast cancer survivor, has been a constant source of support throughout Brady’s career, and he took a moment to celebrate her incredible strength and love.
He also paid tribute to his sisters Julie, Maureen, and Nancy, as well as to “all the amazing mothers in the world.” As usual, Brady’s appreciation for the women in his family shines through, especially on special days like Mother’s Day.
Brady’s Family: A History of Challenging Yet Loving Relationships
Brady’s relationships with his exes have been filled with complexities, but both Gisele and Bridget continue to be co-parents and significant figures in his life, despite the challenges that have come their way. Tom and Gisele, who divorced in 2022 after 13 years of marriage, share two children—16-year-old Benjamin and 13-year-old Vivian. Gisele, now in a relationship with Joaquim Valente, has continued to express positive sentiments about Brady post-divorce.
Meanwhile, Brady and Bridget Moynahan, who were never married but had a son, Jack, after they split in 2006, have co-parented their son despite the circumstances of their breakup. Brady once shared on The Howard Stern Show in 2020 how challenging it was when he found out Bridget was pregnant, and how that situation added strain to his relationship with Gisele, who was initially having trouble adjusting to the news. Despite the rocky beginnings, Brady, Moynahan, and Bündchen have all worked hard to maintain healthy relationships for the sake of their children.
A Nod to the WNBA and His Business Ventures
In his Mother’s Day flurry of posts, Brady didn’t just focus on family. He also plugged his business ventures, including his role as a co-owner of the Las Vegas Aces, a WNBA team. Brady shared a shot of his WNBA championship ring, which he and the Aces players received on Saturday, celebrating the team’s impressive win. Brady’s investment in the WNBA is part of his broader business strategy as he transitions into his post-NFL career.
Additionally, Brady has been involved in promoting CardVault By Tom Brady, a chain of retailers focused on the buying, selling, and trading of collectibles. As he enters his third season as an NFL analyst for Fox Sports, Brady is clearly balancing a wide range of professional and personal responsibilities, all while keeping his family at the center of his life.
Brady’s Balanced Life: A Family First Mentality
