National Football League superstar Tom Brady finds it tough to get his children understand that they live a privileged life as compared to other kids. Brady said since his wife Gisele Bundchen and him both come from humble beginnings, he wants his children to take their lifestyle as a treat.


Brady, 44, has Benjamin Rein, 12 and Vivian Lake, nine, with wife Gisele Bundchen and Jack, 14, with ex-partner Bridget Moynahan. Speaking on the DRIVE podcast, he said: “We have people that clean for us. We have people that make our food. We have people that drive us to the airport if we need that. That’s my kids’ reality which is the hard part to say, guys, this is not the way reality really is...what can we do about that?
