Tom Brady, kids volunteer at food bank after Gisele Bündchen divorce
Tom Brady is on his post-divorce PR tour.
The NFL quarterback, 45, took kids Benjamin, 12, and Vivian, 9, to a food bank on Saturday after finalizing his split from Gisele Bündchen.
They were spotted volunteering at Operation BBQ Relief — a non-profit organization serving hot meals to communities in need — in Port Charlotte, Fla., People reports.
“Tom wanted to teach his kids about the importance of community service,” a source told the outlet.
The outing came just one day after Brady and his supermodel wife, 42, confirmed they finalized their divorce after 13 years of marriage.
Hours after the news broke, Brady was spotted heading to the movies with his kids.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers star was dressed casually for the outing at CMX CineBistro in Hyde Park, Fla.
His children also opted for comfort, with Vivian wearing a hoodie and socks with flip flops, and Benjamin in printed shorts and a casual tee.
A source previously told the outlet that Brady was planning to spend the weekend in Tampa with his kids post-divorce while training with his NFL team.
“He is always happy when he is with his kids,” the insider said of the athlete, who also shares son Jack, 15, with ex Bridget Moynahan. “The kids have slowly been getting used to spending separate time with Tom and Gisele. They lived separately for months.”
The insider added, “When the kids are with Tom, he tries to make it fun with various kids’ activities. He is a very involved dad. You can tell that he loves being a dad.”
Earlier this month, Page Six exclusively broke the news that both Brady and Bündchen — who tied the knot in 2009 — had hired divorce lawyers.
Weeks of speculation was officially confirmed on Friday when the football player took to his Instagram Story to share a statement.
“In recent days, my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage,” he wrote. “We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time spent together. We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way.”
Meanwhile, Bündchen said in her own statement that her priority “has always been and will continue to be” their children, adding, “We will continue co-parenting to give them the love, care and attention they greatly deserve.”
Some interpreted the message to be a subtle shade at Brady and his decision to un-retire from the NFL.
