Tom Brady Had a ‘Holy S—t’ Moment Realizing How Much His Kids Have Grown: ‘It’s Just Amazing’

Time flies by! Tom Brady remembers welcoming his three children like it was yesterday — and he can’t believe how quickly they’ve grown up.“I have this wall in my house where I always mark off how tall they are on the different dates, and literally in the last two months, each of them have grown two inches,” the former NFL star, 45, exclusively told Us Weekly on Thursday, June 1, while promoting his new campaign with Hertz. “I thought they had a little growth spurt, so I measured them.

I was like, ‘Holy s—t!’”Brady — who shares son Jack, 15, with ex Bridget Moynahan, as well as son Benjamin, 13, and daughter Vivian, 10, with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen — went on to note that it’s been “amazing” to see his kids “growing right before [his] eyes.” He continued: “Because you’re so focused on a daily basis, you don’t necessarily see this incremental growth.

But when you look back you go, ‘Wow, this is incredible.’”In addition to growing “physically, mentally [and] emotionally,” the former New England Patriots quarterback said his children have been exploring new hobbies — none of which are football.“My [one] son loves music and he loves performance and, in a way, I’ve loved those things.

I just haven’t necessarily taken a big part of those things,” the seven-time Super Bowl champ told Us. “My daughter loves riding hoses and just [getting] to see the joy that these kids have is the best thing for a parent.”Since announcing his retirement from the NFL after 23 seasons in February, Brady said he’s been learning new things thanks to his kids’ many different interests. “There’s not a ton of things that we can all do at one time that everyone’s loving together, maybe watching movies and playing games and stuff like that,” he explained.
