The seven-time Super Bowl champion shared a rare series of photos of his son with his friends, on the golf course, and spending time with his half-siblings Benjamin, 14, and Vivian, 11.

Alongside the carousel of memories, Brady, 47, captioned, "Happy 17th birthday to the kindest, sweetest, most thoughtful 17-year-old, I know. You are truly a blessing in my life, and I am so grateful to watch you mature into a young man."

The San Mateo native continued to gush, "Your love of family, friends, school, athletics, hard work and dedication to everything you put your energy into are just some of your amazing qualities. I love spending every minute with you and I cherish our time together."

Brady wrapped up the touching post by sharing, "My least favorite is that you can beat me in one on one now . I love you always and forever, happy birthday, dad."

The NFL superstar is no rookie to co-parenting, sharing not only his with Moynahan, but his youngest two children with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen, whom he split from in 2022.

Shortly after the separation with 44-year-old supermodel, Brady engaged in a short lived relationship with Russian fashion superstar Irina Shayk, which according to an inside source correspondence with TMZ, "fizzled out" after some time together.

As per Page Six, the longtime New England Patriot has been most recently romantically linked to swimsuit model and fashion icon Brooks Nader.
