Tom Brady on Avoiding Attention at Kids’ Sports Games, Disguise


Tom Brady has no problem ceding the spotlight to his kids.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion—who is dad to son Jack, 18, with ex Bridget Moynahan as well as Benjamin, 16, and Vivian, 13, with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen—discussed his frequent attendance at his children’s sports games, though he admitted they aren’t always thrilled about his presence.

“I’m probably pretty irritating to them,” he said during his appearance on the March 17 episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “They want me to stand outside the arena when they’re playing. They’re like, ‘Dad, don’t come in here.’”

Given his high-profile status, Tom, 48, has developed a strategy to remain incognito and avoid becoming a distraction in the stands.

“I always—especially when I go to the opposing schools—[wear] the hat, hoodie, [and sit] as far down, as far away from every other parent,” he explained, “because you just want the attention focused on the kids, and that’s where it should be.”
