Rob Gronkowski, former NFL tight end, was one of many who was taken aback by Tom Brady’s son, Jack’s extreme resemblance to his father. The legendary Tom Brady recently shared an Instagram post of him playing golf with his son Jack, whom he shares with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.
Jack was born about a year after Brady and Moyanahan broke up, but the two have remained pretty cordial with each other as they co-parent Jack. Just like his father, Jack is also pretty athletic and has already grown taller than his dad.
