Let’s talk about Bridget Moynahan, the talented actress best known for her role on Blue Bloods. She’s not just a mom on the screen; she’s also a devoted mom in real life. Bridget shares her only child, John "Jack" Edward Thomas Moynahan, with her ex, the legendary NFL star Tom Brady. Their story is one of love, heartbreak, and the challenges of raising a child together despite life’s twists and turns.

The Beginning: Bridget and Tom’s Love Story

Back in 2004, Bridget and Tom made their relationship official, stepping out together at glamorous red carpet events. It was clear from the start that they had a special connection. Tom once shared on 60 Minutes, “I can be myself around her, and there’s not many people I can be myself around. It’s fun to be around your best friends who know you well, and she’s someone that I consider one of my very best friends.”

Unfortunately, every love story doesn’t have a fairy-tale ending. The couple parted ways in 2006, and Tom moved on with supermodel Gisele Bündchen. But life had another surprise in store for them. In early 2007, Tom was shocked to learn that Bridget was pregnant with their child. During a 2020 appearance on Howard Stern’s radio show, Tom opened up about the news: “Next thing you know, I found out that Bridget was pregnant with our son. So that was a very unique time … and it challenged me in a lot of ways, again, to grow up in a different way. It was very hard for my wife to think she fell in love with this guy, and then now this guy’s ex-girlfriend’s pregnant.”

Tom continued, “And it was very challenging for my son’s mom, you know, because she didn’t envision that either. But they both rose to the occasion, and that’s what made them extraordinary parents.”

Welcoming Jack: A New Chapter Begins

In August 2007, Bridget gave birth to their son, Jack. Tom often describes Jack as “the greatest kid you could ever ask for.” Jack’s arrival brought a mix of joy and challenges, but it also strengthened the bond between Bridget and Tom as they navigated the complexities of coparenting. Jack later became a big brother when Tom and Gisele welcomed their son Benjamin in December 2009, followed by their daughter Vivian in December 2012. However, Tom and Gisele’s marriage ended in 2022 after 13 years. Bridget, meanwhile, is now expecting her third child, her first with her boyfriend Joaquim Valente.

Coparenting Success: Bridget’s Perspective

In April 2019, Bridget, who married Andrew Frankel in 2015, spoke candidly about her coparenting experience with Tom. “Tom and I made a decision to raise a child together and we both found partners that not only supported us in raising that child, but also loved our child as if he was their own,” she told People. “I don’t think you can ask for more than that. My son is surrounded by love.”

In 2022, Tom revealed that Jack was a quarterback for his high school football team. “I love watching him play quarterback because I think there’s very few things in life that I could probably help him with,” Tom said. “You know, I don’t have a lot of specialties in life other than probably throwing the football.” He added, “He’s way smarter. He’s got a great work ethic. He’s just a great kid. But I can definitely help him at quarterback.”

Tom and Jack share a love for sports, and they often attend games together. In November 2024, the father-son duo had a blast at a New York Knicks vs. Brooklyn Nets basketball game at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Tom captioned a photo from the game, “The luckiest Dad in the world.” Their bond is evident in every moment they share, proving that family ties run deep, no matter the circumstances.
