The breakup was pretty high profile in that after they parted ways, Moynahan learned she was pregnant with their child months after.But by then, Brady had already moved on with his now ex-wife Giselle Bundchen. Moynahan gave birth to her only child, John \u201cJack\u201d Edward Thomas, in 2007.<\/p>\n<p>She later reflected on what she deemed a \u201ctraumatic\u201d experience of welcoming a child amid a media frenzy, saying, \u201cI\u2019m not sure anyone \u2013 and I could be wrong in this \u2013 grows up thinking, I want to be a single mom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-27302\" src=\"http:\/\/lajmesot.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/GRS.webp\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 992px) 100vw, 992px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lajmesot.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/GRS.webp 992w, https:\/\/lajmesot.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/GRS-300x193.webp 300w, https:\/\/lajmesot.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/GRS-768x495.webp 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"992\" height=\"639\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Moynahan said raising her baby boy on her own when not expected came with many fears and anxieties. However, she felt optimistic that she could do it.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Brady wed Bundchen in February 2009, and they welcomed their first baby together, son Benjamin, ten months later. The pair also share a daughter Vivian who arrived in December 2012. They finalized their divorce in 2022 after 13 years together.In her memoir, \u201cLessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life,\u201d Bundchen admitted that Moynahan\u2019s pregnancy was not an easy time for her either. The supermodel revealed that \u201ctwo months into our relationship, Tom told me that his ex-girlfriend was pregnant. The very next day, the news was everywhere, and I felt my world got turned upside down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Moynahan shared there was no reason why her son, years down the line, would need to read anything about disturbing about his parents, adding,\u201dGoing through that traumatic time of being heartbroken and then being pregnant turned my whole life upside down and inside out and just knocked the wind out of me.\u201dBut there was a silver lining for the New York native, who said having her child was the best thing that came out of that daunting experience.<\/p>\n<p>In the aftermath of the high-profile breakup and giving birth to her son, Moynahan later revealed that she barely left her house during that time. The 51-year-old wrote in her 2019 book \u201cOur Shoes, Our Selves,\u201d noting, \u201cHaving a baby should have been the most joyous time of my life, but instead, I felt assaulted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-27303\" src=\"http:\/\/lajmesot.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/TED.webp\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lajmesot.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/TED.webp 768w, https:\/\/lajmesot.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/TED-246x300.webp 246w\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"935\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The mom of one recalled it was uncomfortable to be followed and stalked, especially because she went through turmoil after the breakup from Brady.

The couple was forced to deal with a challenging situation at the start of their new relationship.He admitted that it was not an easy experience as it was difficult for the mother of his kids and his ex-girlfriend because she never envisioned that happening to her.
