Daddy oh! Bridget’s pregnant, but Tom has no plans to marry ex-galpal
New England Patriots [team stats] QB/QT Tom Brady [stats] has known for months that he’s going to be a daddy, but he has no plans to marry the baby’s mother, “Six Degrees” star Bridget Moynahan, sources told the Track.
Moynahan’s PR gal Christina Papadopoulos confirmed yesterday that Brady’s ex-leading lady, 36, is “over three months pregnant” and that No. 12 is the father.
Brady is overseas and could not be reached for comment but friends of the Patriots prince say their bud is “an honorable guy” who will “do the right thing” although it’s unlikely he’ll make an honest woman of Bridget. He dumped her back in November after a three-year relationship.
Tom quickly moved on and currently is dating Victoria’s Secret supermodel Gisele Bundchen. During Super Bowl week in Miami, Tom was overheard referring to her as his “girlfriend” while he perused pairs of diamond earrings to give his gal on Valentine’s Day.
But despite the new relationship, pals expect Tom to step up and do the daddy thing when the little bundle of joy arrives because, “he’s a man of honor.”
In fact, Tom told a packed Boston courtroom Friday that he and mentor Charlie Weis, who is in the throes of a medical malpractice suit, bonded because they both expect people to be “accountable” and “responsible.”
Of course, it’s unlikely Bridget is too happy with No. 12’s act. Word is, the pair broke up because Bridget’s game plan to marry and start a family didn’t appeal to the 29-year-old pigskin playboy.
“She took the break-up so hard you wouldn’t believe it,” said one friend.
Ya think it was because she was pregnant?
Word is, B. was less than thrilled to see her ex squiring around Leonardo DiCaprio’s former squeeze so soon after the bust-up. Tom and Gisele hooked up shortly before Christmas and he continues to parade around the Apple with her, dodging the paparazzi. Brady appears to be gobsmacked by the glamourpuss, who he is currently cavorting with in Paris.
People maggie reported yesterday that the pair caught the Academie du Spectacle Equestrian horse show at Versailles on Saturday before having dinner at the Cafe de la Paix. The bistro reportedly is Gisele’s favorite eatery in the City of Love. Ooh, la la.
Meanwhile, Bridget has been miserable since Tom put her on waivers around Thanksgiving. (Our spies saw them dining at Umbria during the holiday weekend. No PDA was reported.) But Bridget’s big announcement seemed timed to cause her ex-honey the least amount of agita possible. She dropped the bomb on a long holiday weekend after Brady’s highly publicized court appearance in the Hub and while he was out of the country.
“I feel bad for her,” said one friend of Brady.
After Tom kicked her to the curb, Bridget’s friends were worried about her weight loss, which, come to think of it, could have been morning sickness. But the actress appears to have rebounded of late, taking in the Santa Barbara Film Festival and New York’s Fashion Week. Last Thursday, the mommy-to-be looked glowing and glam - although her black frock resembled a traffic cone, according to one fashionista - at a screening of her latest flick, “Gray Matters.”
Bridget’s spokesgal said the former model is “healthy and excited” about the impending arrival. Last fall, Bridget told Boston Common maggie that marriage and kids are part of her five-year plan.
“I’ve been on this career thing for so long, and you look at all your friends who are finally getting married and having kids,” she said. “I believe in balance in life, so I think you can do it all.”
Moynahan and Brady are tight with their families. Bridget’s parents, Brad and Mary, live out in Longmeadow, and Tom’s parents, Tom, Sr. and Gaylen, reside on the Left Coast. Tom’s sisters have lived with him in Boston off and on for years.
Neither set of future grandparents returned calls seeking comment yesterday but it is well known that Tom and his family are devout Catholics - a fact that has some speculating that he will eventually cave and marry Bridget. However, others point out that Tom’s sister, Maureen, never married the father of her daughter, Mya.
Brady, BTW, is such a family guy, he bought a $6.7 million, multiunit townhouse on Beacon Street last year so his sisters, Julie and Nancy, will have cribs of their own. And speaking of real estate, sources in the Apple speculated yesterday that Brady may be reconsidering selling his $16.5 uberluxe condo in the Time Warner Building.
Tom bought the chi-chi, three-bedroom Manhattan crib in September for $14.5 million and earlier this month put the property on the market.
“You could call to inquire a week or two ago, but not anymore,” our spy said. For what it’s worth, Bridget is currently living in the Apple.
Tom’s pigskin progeny will probably arrive this summer - around the time the Pats start training camp and before the pre-season when they head off to China to play the Seahawks.
Patriots spokesman Stacey James, who was told about the baby by theHerald, said it was news to him and didn’t anticipate having any comment.
So ya think parenthood will affect Tom’s game?
F.O.T.s claim Brady knew about the baby during this year’s post-season, but didn’t let it affect him. (Read: blame the wide receivers.) But how will it affect Bridget?
“Imagine the next guy (she dates),” said one wag. “Think he’ll have a complex or what? Babysitting Tom Brady’s baby . . .”
