Living in Tom Brady’s shadow
As he’s the son of one of the best QBs of all time, Benjamin Brady has reportedly faced a lot of pressure. The youngster has faced the stress of pursuing ball-dominant athletics like his father. As per Vanity Fair, Gisele revealed that Brady’s younger son has even been bullied in Boston after a game of baseball.
This becomes even more difficult considering the fact that the QB’s son finds drawing on his IPad and non-ball sports like skiing and surfing much more enjoyable. While he has a lot of support from his parents now, he has faced this pressure to be more like his father in the past.
