Some moments in life have the unique ability to just blur the lines of time and distance. Maybe even separation. For Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen? Their daughter Vivian’s birthday became a shared celebration of love. And that outshines the complexities of their past!

Vivian’s 12th birthday was a love letter penned by both her parents. Gisele, known for her heartfelt social media posts, called Vivian her “ray of sunshine” in an Instagram story, a phrase that beamed with warmth and admiration. “You are the best daughter a mom could ever ask for, and I’m so blessed to be your mama!” she shared in a follow-up, before signing off with an affectionate “Te amo muito!”  

Not to be outdone, Tom Brady crafted a longer, equally poignant tribute on his Instagram post. “Happy 12th birthday to my forever baby girl,” he began, layering his heartfelt message with admiration for her “love, compassion, and joy” that fills every room she steps into. His declaration of love, “I love you infinity x infinity!!!,” showcased how fatherhood remains the core of his identity.  

The couple were married for 13 years and share two kids. Vivian and 14-year-old Benjamin. Despite taking separate paths, they’ve cultivated a respectful co-parenting relationship. All the while balancing their children’s well-being with their own personal growth!

Life after divorce: For Brady and Gisele

Gisele, now expecting her first child with her boyfriend Joaquim Valente, has fully embraced her new life. Reports of her pregnancy initially caused a stir, especially for Brady, who sources say was “stung” by the news. However, an insider revealed, “He snaps out of it and remains busy, knowing that to worry about things he can’t control is a waste of time.”  

For Brady, this transition hasn’t been without its challenges. His new role as an NFL analyst, coupled with singlehood, has made reentering the dating scene a tough play. “Tom would love to date more, but he is busy and very focused on his first year of being a commentator,” shared a source. Despite the distractions, Brady’s love for his kids continues to guide him through uncharted waters.  

While Bündchen spent Thanksgiving in Costa Rica with Valente and the kids, Brady focused on his professional commitments, working as a Fox Sports NFL broadcaster. This arrangement reflects their mutual respect and their determination to maintain a positive environment for Vivian and Benjamin.  

Brady’s recent fishing trip post, featuring a shirtless selfie and Morgan Wallen’s breakup anthem, added a layer of intrigue. While some interpreted it as a nod to his feelings about Bündchen’s new life, others saw it as Brady embracing his independence. Comments like “Tom be throwing out the bait!!!” from fans encapsulated the humor and speculation surrounding his post.  

Vivian’s 12th birthday serves as a poignant reminder of what truly matters! For Brady and Bündchen? It’s not about who they are as individuals but who they are as parents. Through heartfelt Instagram tributes and a shared dedication to co-parenting, they’ve shown the world that family comes first—even after separation.
