Tom Brady is one of the greatest athletes in the history of sports, so his children are naturally athletic. But that hardly means they have to like sports.
According to Brady’s ex-wife Gisele Bundchen, their son Benjamin has been subjected to bullying on account of being the son of the man considered to be the football’s GOAT.
While Brady’s older son Jack wants to follow in his father’s footsteps, Benjamin prefers drawing, as well as non-ball sports such as surfing and skiing. Gisele was recently interviewed by Vanity Fair’s Michelle Ruiz and revealed the 13-year-old was bullied after a baseball game in Boston due to pressure stemming from being the son of the seven-time Super Bowl winner.
Ruiz writes:
“Benny, who is alternately lounging with friends and studying for a math test, prefers drawing on his iPad and non-ball sports like surfing and skiing (the athletic pressure of being Brady’s son led to bullying in Boston after one particular baseball game).”

Tom and Gisele share two kids together, Benjamin and Vivian (10), while the 15-year-old Jack is from a previous relationship.
The latter is keen on becoming a professional quarterback and has hopes of attending his father’s alma mater, the University of Michigan.
Brady retired from football in early February and is thought to be intent on spending time with his kids, which is why he isn’t starting at FOX until 2024. However, speculation over a possible return to the NFL is still swirling.
