Tom Brady is focused on family.
The former NFL star took to Instagram on Monday to emphasize that he is prioritizing his three kids — as his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, embraces her next chapter with her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, and their newborn son.
“I never take for granted these precious moments with favorite people in one of our favorite places,” Brady, 47, captioned a heartwarming clip and photos of himself and sons Jack, 17, and Benjamin, 15, and daughter Vivian, 12, hitting the slopes on a family outing.
He added that there is “plenty of snow for a few final laps this season” and boasted that he did not have any “wipeouts this year either” alongside a cheeky winking emoji.
The legendary quarterback began the carousel with a clip of Vivian and himself bundled up in winter gear and doing a special handshake before embracing. Jack Johnson’s song “Better Together” accompanied the video.
Brady also included an action shot of the family of four gliding down the snow-covered slopes and individual shots of his kids expertly navigating the mountains.
Fans of the famous family took to the comments section to remind the athlete that time with kids can be fleeting.
“Enjoy every moment they grow up so fast!” wrote one Instagram user, while another wrote, “treasure these moments 4-ever!”
Brady’s snowy trip with his kids comes as Bündchen, 44, embarks on a new life with her partner, Valente, with whom she welcomed a baby in February.
The supermodel and the Super Bowl champ tied the knot in 2009. They welcomed son Benjamin later that year followed by daughter Vivian in 2012. (Prior to their marriage, Brady welcomed his eldest son, Jack, with ex Bridget Moynahan in 2007.)
The former power couple divorced in 2022, which the former New England Patriots player admitted he found “painful.”
“We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time spent together,” he wrote via Instagram Stories at the time, calling the decision to part ways “difficult.”
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel began dating Valente, her jiu-jitsu instructor, in June 2023, though she had known him since they began training together in 2021.
News broke in October 2024 that Bündchen and Valente were expecting their first child together, with a source telling People that the duo was “looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family.”
Brady, meanwhile, was “stunned” by the development, a source told Page Six in October.
While he “knew things were serious” between the new couple, the athlete “never imagined” they would have a child.
After Bündchen gave birth, an insider revealed to Page Six that she “feels freer” with Valente and that, while she is “grateful” for her former relationship, she is “absolutely loving this new chapter.”
The source further divulged that the Brazilian bombshell “felt like she lived in Tom’s shadow for a long time.”
