Tom Brady: The GOAT Who Can’t Stay Quiet

Tom Brady was born on August 3, 1977, in San Mateo, California. He was drafted by the New England Patriots in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft, pick No. 199, a slight that he spent two decades weaponizing against every team that passed on him. He went on to win seven Super Bowls (six with New England, one with Tampa Bay), more than any single franchise in NFL history.

Brady retired, twice. His first retirement announcement in February 2022 lasted exactly 40 days before he un-retired. He then officially retired for good on February 1, 2023, at age 45, closing one of the most statistically dominant careers in professional sports history: 89,214 passing yards, 649 touchdown passes, five Super Bowl MVP awards.

Off the field, Brady’s personal life has attracted as much attention as his game. His decade-plus marriage to supermodel Gisele Bündchen ended in a very public divorce finalized in October 2022, and the tabloid aftermath has kept him a constant search topic. He also has a son, Jack, with actress Bridget Moynahan from a previous relationship.

Since retiring, Brady has pivoted hard into business, he co-founded the sports media company Religion of Sports, launched the TB12 wellness brand, holds a minority ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders (a deal that required NFL approval), and is set to join Fox Sports as a lead NFL analyst under a reported landmark broadcasting contract. His life after football is being built as deliberately as any two-minute drill.

Brady has been primarily based in Miami, Florida, in recent years. He sold his custom-built Indian Creek Island mansion in Miami for a reported $17 million in 2023. His exact current primary residence has not been definitively confirmed in reliable public reporting, though Florida remains closely associated with his post-Patriots life.

Tom Brady is American. He was born in San Mateo, California, and has never held dual citizenship, though his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen is Brazilian.

Tom Brady was born on August 3, 1977, making him 47 years old as of 2025. He retired from the NFL at 45, making him the oldest starting quarterback to win a Super Bowl when he claimed his seventh ring at age 43.

Tom Brady stands 6 feet 4 inches tall (1.93 m). That height, combined with his pocket presence and pre-snap reading ability, was central to his long-term durability as an NFL quarterback.

Brady was a high-profile ambassador for FTX, the collapsed cryptocurrency exchange. When FTX imploded in 2022, Brady reportedly lost tens of millions of dollars in equity he held in the company, with some estimates citing a paper loss of around $30–40 million, though the exact figure was never officially confirmed. He was also named in investor lawsuits against FTX, though he has not been charged with wrongdoing.

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen divorced in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage. Multiple credible reports pointed to Brady's un-retirement in March 2022, after he had initially announced he was stepping away from football, as the breaking point for the relationship. The divorce was finalized in a Florida court.

Tom Brady has two women who are mothers to his children. His eldest son, John Edward Thomas Moynahan (Jack), was born in August 2007 with actress Bridget Moynahan. His two younger children, son Benjamin and daughter Vivian, were born during his marriage to Gisele Bündchen.

Gisele Bündchen has kept herself firmly in the public eye post-divorce. She moved to Miami, started dating jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente, and in April 2024 confirmed she is expecting a child with him. She has continued modeling work and advocacy around environmental causes.

As of early 2025, Tom Brady has been linked to model Erin Andrews, wait, that's unconfirmed. The name most credibly associated with Brady's post-divorce dating life is model Irina Shayk, whom he was reported to be seeing in mid-2023, though neither party made the relationship officially public and it appeared to be short-lived.

As of early 2025, Tom Brady does not have a publicly confirmed relationship. After brief reports linking him to Irina Shayk in 2023, no sustained, verified relationship has been reported by credible outlets. He has been spotted at events and games but has kept his romantic life largely private.

There is no confirmed new girlfriend as of early 2025. Brady was briefly linked to model Irina Shayk in the summer of 2023, but that appears to have run its course. Anyone claiming otherwise is reporting rumor, not fact.

Tom Brady is not currently married. His divorce from Gisele Bündchen was finalized in October 2022, and no subsequent marriage has been reported. Before Gisele, he was never married to Bridget Moynahan, with whom he shares a son.

Various outlets estimate Brady's net worth somewhere between $300 million and $400 million, but no figure should be treated as verified fact, those numbers are outside estimates, not confirmed disclosures. His wealth comes from NFL contracts (he reportedly earned over $330 million in career NFL salary), endorsement deals, and business ventures including TB12 and a lucrative Fox Sports broadcasting contract reportedly worth around $375 million over 10 years.

Tom Brady's ex-wife is Gisele Bündchen, the Brazilian supermodel. He also shares a son with actress Bridget Moynahan, but the two were never married.

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen's divorce was finalized on October 28, 2022, in a Miami-Dade County court. The proceedings were relatively swift and uncontested, the paperwork was settled in roughly two weeks after filing.

Tom Brady officially and finally retired on February 1, 2023, at age 45. His first retirement attempt in February 2022 lasted just 40 days before he reversed course. His final retirement makes him the oldest starting quarterback to have played at an elite level in NFL history.

Reporting from multiple credible outlets at the time pointed to Brady's decision to un-retire in March 2022 as the central catalyst. Gisele had reportedly expressed a desire for Brady to step back from football, and his reversal, committing to another grueling NFL season, was widely reported as the breaking point. The couple had also reportedly been living separately for weeks before the divorce filing.

The widely reported narrative is that football was the core issue: Gisele wanted Brady to prioritize family over the sport, Brady couldn't walk away, and the tension came to a head when he un-retired in 2022 after she had reportedly believed they had agreed he was done. Neither party has publicly blamed the other in explicit terms, but the timeline of events makes that account highly credible.

Tom Brady was born on August 3, 1977, which makes him 47 years old in 2025. Remarkably, he was still playing at the highest level of professional football at age 44 and 45, an almost unprecedented physical achievement for a quarterback.

By all credible accounts, Gisele left because Brady refused to truly leave football. She had reportedly pushed for him to retire, he initially agreed, then reversed course in March 2022. Reports citing sources close to the couple described years of frustration over Brady's near-total commitment to the NFL at the expense of family life. Gisele herself, in post-divorce interviews, confirmed there were 'issues' for a long time without explicitly blaming the sport, but the pattern of reporting is consistent and credible.
