Brady confessed that he enjoys attending his children’s various events, but also feels guilty about overshadowing their special moments.
“And whether I’m at a game for my son, and I love doing that, but you know, a lot of times the focus shifts to us,” he said. “I don’t want to take away their moments because this is true [an] important part of their lives and their maturation.”
