Gisele Bundchen: Tom Brady's Son Is 100 Percent Mine

Gisele Bundchen has never met Bridget Moynahan, the mother of her husband Tom Brady’s son, she tells the May issue of Vanity Fair.

“I understand that he has a mom, and I respect that, but to me it’s not like because somebody else delivered him, that’s not my child,” she says of John Edward Thomas Moynahan, who was born in 2007. “I feel it is, 100 percent. I want him to have a great relationship with his mom, because that’s important, but I love him the same way as if he were mine.”

Bundchen, who wed Brady in February, says it was “definitely a surprise” when she learned that Moynahan was pregnant shortly after she began dating the New England Patriot quarterback.

“In the beginning you’re living this romantic fantasy; you’re thinking, ‘This can’t be true, it’s so good! And then, Whoops—wake-up call!’” she says.

However, standing by Brady as they figured things out “was a blessing, because otherwise I don’t think I would have known what he was made of, and he wouldn’t have known what I was made of.”

“I was like, You have the heart in a good place!” she says. “It made me feel more in love with him; it made me realize who he was.”
