Tom Brady has a few regrets about agreeing to do a roast of himself on Netflix, mostly because of the comments and dark jokes about his family that ensued and what it did to his three kids and two former partners.
‘The Roast Of Tom Brady’ aired on Netflix and included a bunch of jabs at the quarterback, mostly on his marriage with Gisele and a number of insensitive statements about his family. Here’s what Brady has to say about the after-effects the show had on his family, and why he will never do it again.
Tom Brady Regrets Doing Netflix Roast
With two million views on its first night alone, Tom Brady’s roast became a huge sensation on Netflix. However, the football icon later claimed he would never do it again because of the impact it had on his family.
“I loved when the jokes were about me. I thought they were so fun. I didn’t like the way that it affected my kids,” Brady said on The Pivot Podcast. He called the experience “bittersweet,” adding, “I wouldn’t do that again because of the way that it affected actually the people that I care about the most in the world.”
With his former girlfriend, Bridget Moynahan, Brady has a 16-year-old son named Jack. He also has two other children with Gisele Bündchen: 11-year-old Vivian and 14-year-old Benjamin.
He also added that he aims to be a better parent in hindsight, saying “I’m going to be a better parent as I go forward because of it. At the same time, I’m happy everyone who was there had a lot of fun.”
