The retired NFL superstar, who has been on social media silence since his ex-wife welcomed another child, reshared a post from another Instagram user on his stories. The words resonated with Brady, who heartily approved the message.

Tom Brady welcomed two children with his former spouse, Gisele Bündchen, during their 13-year marriage. He has an older son from a previous relationship, while his ex welcomed a new baby with her lover, Joaquim Valente. The original post, shared by @larissa_raymond, featured the author's poetic musings about relationships. It began: "I really think the secret to being loved is to love. And the secret to being interesting is to be interested." Tom Brady shared a cryptic message about love just a day after news broke his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen had welcomed a child with her boyfriend.

The 47-year-old former NFL quarterback split with the Brazilian supermodel, 44, in 2022 after a 13-year marriage that saw them have children son Benjamin, 15, and daughter Vivian, 12, with Gisele having her third... After reports he was in shock at his ex’s pregnancy news, Tom has now posted on Instagram following the arrival of her newborn: “I really think the secret to being loved is to love.” The ex-athlete followed the quote with the line: “And the secret to being interesting is to be interested. And the secret to have others find beauty in you is to find beauty in others. And the secret to having a friend is being a friend.” Tom added three red heart emojis to his post and wrote: “Love this.” His words came a day after it was revealed Gisele had given birth to her first child with jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim, 37.

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen may have closed the book on their marriage, but they just opened a new chapter on champion-level co-parenting. Their son’s 16th birthday proved how. Just days after celebrating their daughter Vivian’s 13th birthday, Tom and Gisele are right back at it, showing all the love for Benjamin. Gisele dropped a sweet, heartfelt mom-style message, while Tom’s Instagram post was peak “dad goals,” the kind of wholesome content fans can’t help but cheer for. “Happy 16th Birthday, my precious forever baby boy Benny! You’re officially old enough to drive, but not old enough to stop texting me “Where r u?” at midnight,” the 7-time Super Bowl winner wrote on Instagram.

“You are kind and caring and thoughtful, you lead with your heart but you are also so funny and fun to be around and you make every room brighter. Proud doesn’t cover it, mostly I’m shocked you grew up so fast and somehow still haven’t learned to fold a laundry basket properly. Here’s to more big moments, great grades, sports wins, and a slightly lighter Uber bill. And I know this next year will be your best year yet. We love you sooooo much.” Brady is all about family time, whether it’s trips, big moments, or simple father-son memories.

Gisele Bündchen recently became a mom-of-three! On Thursday, February 6, the NFL alum shared an eyebrow-raising quote shortly after it was revealed his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, gave birth to a baby boy with boyfriend Joaquim Valente. Tom Brady posted a quote to social media about 'being loved' and making friends. "I really think the secret to being loved is to love. And the secret to being interesting is to be interested. And the secret to have others find beauty in you is to find beauty in others.

And the secret to having a friend is being a friend," the quote read. The retired football player, 47, added on top of the quote, "❤️❤️❤️ Love this."
