Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady's eldest son, John Edward Thomas Moynahan, also known as Jack Edward, has lived quite the illustrious life thus far as a 13-year-old.
Being Tom's only son with his ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan, the beginning of his life was pretty complicated due to the separation. Moynahan has since moved on from Tom, and Jack has been in split custody between his two biological parents. In the process, Jack has grown close to his step-mother and famous model Gisele Bündchen. As if growing up with your dad being in one of the greatest dynasties in sports history wasn't enough.
Now that Jack Edward is now a 16-year-old teen, who is he becoming? Let's find out!

If it's not organic, it's not allowed in the house, which is a diet both Tom and Gisele follow strictly, too!
