“He could complain but what's the point. He got the best out of the relationship with Gisele until it fell apart, now it's not his problem anymore. He will be fine,” added the mole. 

Another source spoke to Daily Mail, sharing that the model informed the news directly to Brady after revealing to her children as she wanted him to hear it from her first.

“She knew that he would be a great father when her kids started taking classes with him. He is patient, playful and so understanding,” continued the insider, adding both er children were “absolutely thrilled” over the big news.
