The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is one of the most decorated athletes in the world. His seven Super Bowl rings and the outstanding record of 100,000 yards are proof that he’s a force to reckon with. Surely, many of his fans want to be like him. However, his youngest son, Benjamin Rein, is nothing like his father. Gisele Bündchen and Brady, the former couple, once got into an argument regarding it.

Tampa Tom’s oldest son, John (Jack) Edward, whom he shares with his ex-girlfriend, Bridget Moynahan, is just like his father. The fifteen-year-old plays football and is a quarterback. TB12 revealed that Jack always wants to try hard and never wants to let him down. The quarterback’s oldest child is exactly how he was when he was a teen. However, his other two children, whom he shares with supermodel, Bündchen, dance to their own beat.
Tom Brady’s youngest son, Benjamin Rein, is not like his half-brother. The 12-year-old “lets it all out” and his father cannot tell him what to do. Brady wanted Benny to be like Jack; to love sports as much as he does. However, his younger son was not interested in sports.
“I was like, ‘C’mon, let’s do this.’ And he was like, ‘Nope.’ And I was like, ‘What? No, do this!’ And Gisele kept saying to me, ‘Would you effing understand that your son is different?’” Brady revealed in an interview and also admitted, “It was hard for me. I was like, ‘What do you mean? He’s a boy; he should do all these things that I do.’”

Although Benjamin is not interested in sports, the 45-year-old understands that his son has different interests than him. Rather than training together, the father and son duo do what the child wants to do. “When we do that, we have the best time. He’s like, ‘OMG, Dad, you’re so funny.’ He loves joking, and I joke back.”
Even though little Benny may not like playing football with his popular dad, he’d rather be interested in spending time with the wrestling legend, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

During the interview, the then 9-year-old asked his father if the movie Jumanji: The Next Level was finished or not. “Benny would rather hang out with DJ than me, clearly, as you can see, which I love,” Brady jokingly said.
