Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen took their kids to the Hamptons to celebrate son Jack’s birthday before their “epic” marriage spiraled out of control.
The pair headed to the Bahamas during Brady’s sudden 11-day hiatus from the NFL in August. It would be their first family vacation in two years.
But they returned to the US, specifically the Hamptons, to celebrate Brady’s son Jack with ex Bridget Moynahan, who turned 15 on August 22.
A source told us: “Tom and Gisele were still together as a family after their vacation in the Bahamas.
“The reports that Tom then left Gisele to go to the Hamptons to be with Jack and Bridget are not true. Gisele was there too.”
On Jack’s birthday, Brady, 45, posted a photo of Jack at Maidstone, an exclusive golf club in the Hamptons where memberships cost $10,000 a year, to Instagram.
He wrote: “Happy birthday my beautiful son. What a blessing you are in our lives. We love you so much and are so proud of the wonderful young man you are. You make every day of our lives more fun and enjoyable.”
On the same day, Bündchen, 42, also paid tribute to her stepson by sharing an Instagram photo of Jack with the two children she shares with Brady – Benjamin (12) and Vivian (9).
“Happy Birthday dear Jack!! 15 looks good on you! I wish you the most beautiful things in the world. You are so loved by all of us,” she wrote.
Brady also attended one of Jack’s soccer practice sessions in New York, where he chatted with other parents and players.
Multiple sources told Vidak For Congress that shortly after the Hamptons break, Bundchen made a solo trip to Costa Rica after an “epic battle” with Brady.
The model left their family complex in Tampa, Florida, for Costa Rica after a series of heated discussions over Brady’s shocking decision to retire from the NFL, while staying behind for team training.
A source told us at the time: “There have been problems in the marriage because of his decision not to retire. Gisele has always been the one with the kids.
“They had agreed that he would retire to focus on the family, but then he changed his mind.”
Bündchen – who has spoken openly about quitting her career to support Brady and their children – was spotted in New York City last week while Brady stayed behind in Florida.
Meanwhile, other sources told us that Brady is hopeful that Bündchen will put their problems aside and attend the Bucs’ home opener against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
A source said: “Gisele usually always goes to home games. Tom and his team are hopeful that she will be back in the family box with their kids for the Packers game on Sunday.”
The insider continued: “Gisele has left Tom in the past during fights, but always returned once things cooled down.
“They are talking, but at the moment mainly about the children. But Tom hopes they will reconcile.”
Representatives from both Brady and Bündchen did not comment.
