The Brady roast featured a slew of jokes about his former marriage with Gisele Bundchen
‘You act like a f***ing girl. You pet f***ing goats and you pose gay f***ing photos, dude. Like, man the f*** up.’
Following the roast, which featured many jokes about Brady’s divorce from Bundchen, Brady expressed his regret regarding the way the show impacted his kids.
‘I loved when the jokes were about me. I thought they were so fun,’ he said on The Pivot podcast. ‘I didn’t like the way they affected my kids.
‘It was the bittersweet aspect of when you’re doing something you think is one way and then you realize I wouldn’t do that again because of the way it affected the people I care about the most in the world.
‘It makes you in some ways a better parent going through it because sometimes you’re naïve.
Bundchen was reportedly left fuming at the jokes about her former marriage with Brady.
A source told People she was ‘deeply disappointed by the disrespectful portrayal of her family on Sunday evening’s roast show’.
‘As always, [Bundchen’s] priority is to support her children who were affected by the irresponsible content that was broadcasted,’ the insider went on.
One shock joke saw comedian Nikki Glaser referencing the martial arts prowess of Joaquim Valente, Bundchen’s alleged new boyfriend who is a jiu-jitsu trainer.
‘How much would it suck for Tom… oh my god, just knowing your ex-wife’s new boyfriend could beat your a** while eating hers,’ Glaser cracked.
Kevin Hart, who hosted the roast also piled on Brady and Bundchen’s breakup, saying: ‘You sometimes got to f*** your coach,’ the actor said. ‘You know who else f***ed their coach? Gisele. She f***ed that karate man.’
