Tom Brady does not seem quite happy after the success of Netflix’s The Roast of Tom Brady. The football star instantly regretted the jokes made in the show as they had severely affected his family. His ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, was also disappointed.
Brady loves comedy, but he admitted being clueless about the repercussions of signing up for the Netflix roast. The comedians did not attack his children, but they made sure to brush upon the subject of his ex-wife.
Tom Brady May Never Do A Roast Show Again
During his appearance on The Pivot Podcast, former football quarterback Tom Brady confessed he regrets doing the show despite its success. He said he loved when the jokes were about him, but it was no longer funny when it involved his family.
“I didn’t like the way that it affected my kids. It’s the hardest part about — the bittersweet aspect of when you do something that you think is one way, and then all of a sudden you realize 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.”
The experience was as embarrassing as it could get for Brady, and he claimed that it was a hard lesson learned for him as a parent. “It makes you in some ways a better parent going through it. Sometimes you’re naïve,” he reflected. He echoed the same sentiment that he only signed up for it because “I love when people were making fun of me.”
As it turns out, the fun had its consequences. Brady promised that he would become a better parent this time. Still, he was very happy for the viewers who enjoyed the show. He quipped, “Let’s do more of that and love each other and celebrate other people’s success.”
He remained positive amid the humiliation he and his family endured because of the show, but his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, was clearly not a huge fan of it.
Fans Felt Concerned About Tom Brady’s Netflix Roast Show
A source spoke with People and claimed that the Brazilian supermodel was “deeply disappointed by the disrespectful portrayal of her family on Sunday evening’s roast show.” Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady were married for 13 years before they filed for divorce in 2022.
The insider added that “[Bündchen’s] priority is to support her children who were affected by the irresponsible content that was broadcasted.” Many fans are also not thrilled with Brady’s careless decision to make a show as such that would put his family in an embarrassing situation.

My already low opinion of Brady as a man just plummeted

Tough lesson to learn, especially in the public eye.

Tom I empathize but you knew what you were allowing when you signed up. You shouldn't have let your young kids watch that. There's a lot of my past I'm NEVER going to tell my kids about. they are now 25, 21 and 16 but still don't need to know this stuff about me, their dad.
