Tom Brady strives to "live up to the example" set by his dad

The sports star - who has Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12, with his ex-wife Gisele Bundchen, as well as Jack, 17, with Bridget Moynahan - wrote on Instagram: "Happy Father's Day to my dad who taught me everything about what it means to be a father. And to all the Dads out there that who are great role models to their kids. My dad has always been my biggest supporter, my best friend, and my number one teacher not just in sports but in life. The values he passed on to our family - hard work, integrity, compassion, and unconditional love, shaped me in every way. Each day I try to live up to the example he set: to be present and to make sure my kids know how much I love and care about them. I'm grateful for every moment and it's a pleasure watching these three beautiful angels grow up! [heart emojis] (sic)"

Tom and Gisele announced their split back in 2022, and the Super Bowl-winning star previously insisted that his children would be his number one priority moving forwards.

Tom wrote on Instagram at the time: "In recent days, my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage. We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together. We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way. We will continue to work together as parents to always ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve. (sic)"

Meanwhile, Gisele explained that the celebrity duo had simply "grown apart".

The blonde beauty said: "The decision to end a marriage is never easy but we have grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always."
