Bridget Moynahan has co-written/co-edited a book called Our Shoes, Our Selves. It?s actually an essay anthology from famous women, women writers, etc. A portion of the sales goes to the charity Girls Inc. The connecting thread of all the essays is pairs of shoes, or when they just needed those shoes or how a pair of combat boots came into someone?s life at just the right time. For Bridget, it was a pair of motorcycle boots and they came when she was pregnant with her son Jack. Bridget and Tom Brady had dated for a few years, and they broke up and she was basically pregnant and alone and being stalked by paparazzi. People has some details from her essay:
Her own deeply personal essay calls back to her most vulnerable time. It was 2007, and Moynahan, then 36, was expecting a baby with her ex-boyfriend, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, after he had already moved on with supermodel Gisele Bndchen.
The firestorm of controversy that ensued meant that the actress, then best known for roles in I, Robot, Coyote Ugly and Sex and the City, was suddenly a tabloid fixture.
?Being pregnant and having a baby are such personal, intimate moments,? she says. As she faced an unexpected life as a single mom to Jack, now 11, and navigated the relationship with Brady and Bndchen, Moynahan says the public scrutiny became too much.
?I would have cars following me, and men hiding in the bushes outside my house,? she says. ?As a new mother, you want to just protect your child. That kind of attention felt like a threat.?
Then one day at Barneys ? where she was hiding from photographers who had followed her while she returned baby clothes ? she spotted a pair of motorcycle boots. ?I thought, that?s what I need. Let me get a little bit of my ?New York? back, a little armor,? she says.
These days, Moynahan says she is grateful that she?s been able to give her son a safe and private life, along with her husband of three years, businessman Andrew Frankel. And she also feels lucky she and Brady have been able to co-parent successfully.
?Tom and I made a decision to raise a child together and we both found partners that not only supported us in raising that child, but also loved our child as if he was their own,? she says. ?I don?t think you can ask for more than that. My son is surrounded by love.?
[From People]
So she bought the boots after she gave birth? I would not want to wear motorcycle boots in that moment, but I understand that?s not the point of this. I was hoping for some fun gossip but this just makes me remember how awful it must have been for several years for Bridget pregnant and alone, then raising Jack as a baby all while Jack?s father was going all-in with Gisele Bundchen. I mean, I doubt Bridget would want to change what happened, all things considered she?s probably secretly grateful at this point that she didn?t end up with Tom. But still, that time must have been really depressing for her.

Don?t get me wrong, I enjoy vintage-scandal-tinged gossip as much as the next person. Knowing the history of who slept with whom and who got pregnant and who left said pregnant lady makes for a richer gossiping experience. But also: it?s been 12 years since Tom Brady and Bridget Moynahan were together. I could see that there would still be huge gossip potential if the whole pregnant-and-abandoned thing happened just a few years ago, but these days? everybody has moved on. Bridget is happily married, Tom is happily married, and everybody co-parents like adults and it?s fine. But everybody still waits to see what Bridget is going to say or tweet whenever Tom wins another Super Bowl. And this year, she kept it brief:
Congratulations @TB12sports @Patriots thinking @Edelman11 #MVP

| | Bridget Moynahan wants Emperor Baby Fists to release his tax returns | | Added 7 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Every year, I wait until after the Oscars to get all of my tax sh-t in order. I usually file in mid-March and it?s always an enormous weight off my shoulders to get it done weeks before the April 15th cutoff date. While it?s never a fun day at the beach to pay my taxes, it does make me feel a little bit patriotic. But this year is definitely going to be different, because Mr. P-ssygrabber Tax Cheat Liar is our Emperor now. We still haven?t seen ONE tax return from Donald Trump. And we?re not going to either – his people have already said that now that he?s president, no one is talking about his tax returns except the media, and the media is made up of fake journalists or whatever.
Democrats are joining with organizers of the Women?s March and other progressive organizations for massive protests on Tax Day (April 15th) this year. They?re hoping to have a Women?s March-sized crowd in Washington, and other cities are hosting huge protests too. The aim is to put pressure on Emperor Baby Fists to finally f–king release his tax returns. And to simply remind people that HE NEVER DID RELEASE THEM.
Anyway, Bridget Moynahan is one of those people who thinks that Trump needs to release the returns.
Bridget Moynahan, of CBS?s ?Blue Bloods,? thinks President Trump should release his tax returns. But many fans who follow her on Facebook think she should keep her opinions to herself.
?If he has nothing to hide, he should have no problem showing. Please call your officials. Express your disappointment,? posted Moynahan, who has a son with Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who is known to be friendly with Trump. Many of the 357 comments that poured in disagreed.
?You show your tax returns, then we?ll talk,? one fan wrote. ?I would think people would worry more about letting the man work and get off his back,? wrote another.
?I really don?t care about his tax returns. I care more about what he does for the economy,? said a third. ?Let it go and move on.?
[From Page Six]
LOL, ?you should release YOUR tax returns? is such a stupid response. I feel fairly confidant that if Bridget ran for public office, she would release her tax returns because THAT IS WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN when you run for public office. If you want to get depressed, go to Bridget?s Facebook and Twitter and look at all of the Deplorables bitching at her whenever she dares to post anything political. Anyway, of course I think Trump should release his returns, and I?m all for reminding the country that he hasn?t. I have my doubts that we’ll ever really see Trump’s tax returns, even if we get a 9/11-type commission digging into his connections to Russia (Russian business interests = tax returns). But still, protesting and organizing is vital during this time and people do need to be reminded of all of this. And who even knows if Emperor Baby Fists will still be in office then? I?m being completely serious. Whenever I see CNN?s ?First 100 Days? chyron, I always think ?more like the only 100 Days.?
Also: how funny is it that Bridget is such a progressive and she has a son with meathead Trump-supporter Tom Brady?

Please, don?t everyone start yelling at me all at once. Something about the Tom Brady-Gisele Bundchen- Bridget Moynahan situation makes people start yelling (at me) immediately. I?ll have to admit, though, I love these Budget Bermuda Triangle stories. I usually find Bridget to be hilariously bitchy, I think Gisele is a sanctimonious a-hole, and I find Tom Brady to be pretty clueless and bland, and unworthy of all of the drama. Anyway, Bridget has a cover interview with More Magazine to promote her new television gig, Blue Bloods. Of course, she gets questions about her son Jack and Jack?s father Tom. Personally, I find Bridget?s comments very pointed, like she was specifically referencing certain things (Tom not being in the delivery room) while making a conscious effort to not mention other stuff. But that?s just me - I will literally read anything into anything. I live to overanalyze:
They’ve had rocky patches, but Bridget Moynahan says she and Tom Brady ? along with his wife Gisele Bndchen ? have managed to create a stable family for their son, 3 -year-old John Edward.
“I never made a comment about Gisele or Tom publicly,” Moynahan, who graces the March cover of More, tells the magazine. “I have a relationship with these people on a daily basis.”
And, she adds, that the blended family is going well. “My son has two loving parents and an extended family, whether it’s cousins or stepmothers or boyfriends. My son is surrounded by love.”
Still, Moynahan, who turns 40 in April, admits being a single mom has been tough, starting with the birth itself in 2007.
“[Tom] was not in the [delivery] room,” says Moynahan, who had already split from Brady when she discovered she was pregnant. “He was there on that day and came in afterwards. He certainly wasn’t holding my hand while I pushed.”
Relying on her parents and friends for support, she recalls “hyperventilating” with anxiety after giving birth: “Every time my dad mentioned he had to go [home to Massachusetts], I’d start crying.”
Even though she doesn’t believe “any girl grows up dreaming of being a single mom,” she also stresses, “There’s not a second I regret having a child on my own.”
A New Love
Apart from her son, another positive force in her life is her new boyfriend, Charlie’s Angels director Joseph “McG” McGinty Nichol.
Revealing they met on an airplane, Moynahan ? who currently plays an almost-divorced prosecutor on the CBS series Blue Bloods alongside Tom Selleck ? says McG is not only good for her, but for her son, as well.
“He’s witty, he’s smart, he’s incredibly funny, he’s got incredible taste, and he comes from a great family,” Moynahan gushes. “He’s the salt of the earth but also very successful in the crazy business that we’re in.”
And, she adds, “He and Jack have a great relationship.”
[From People]
Bridget says: ?I have a relationship with these people on a daily basis? My son has two loving parents and an extended family, whether it’s cousins or stepmothers or boyfriends. My son is surrounded by love.” Well? I?ll give it to Bridget, that was pretty classy. I mean, ?stepmother? came after ?cousin,? but still. Considering Gisele constantly refers to Jack as hers, I think this is the best we can hope for out of Bridget. But yeah? Gisele bugs the hell out of me. I can?t imagine having to deal with her all of the time, and watching her try to out-mother every single woman on the planet.
Also - while Bridget rarely makes specific comments about Gisele, like ?Gisele is a sanctimonious a–hole, signed B-Moyn,? Bridget has made some other pointed comments about ?irresponsible mothers? who promote motherhood as easy. Bridge even has some loyal, talkative ?friends? who do her dirty work in the press, if need be. But sure? she never talks about Gisele or Tom. Of course. “PUBLICLY”

Not looking to cause any trouble, Bridget Moynahan prefers to keep the peace with her ex beau and baby daddy, Tom Brady.
The ?Blue Bloods? babe recently opened up to More Magazine for their March 2011 issue - as she revealed that she and Brady, along with his wife, Gisele Bundchen, have managed to create a stable family environment for 3 year old, John Edward.
She dished, "I never made a comment about Gisele or Tom publicly. I have a relationship with these people on a daily basis."
The 40-year-old single mom added, "My son has two loving parents and an extended family, whether it's cousins or stepmothers or boyfriends. My son is surrounded by love."

Bridget Moynahan has a new interview in Self Magazine, and she is still sniping, of course. But Bridget keeps it oblique, and that?s why we love her. Some are interpreting Bridget?s interview as rather pointed comments about Gisele?s happy-happy talk about childbirth and motherhood, like when Gisele talked about how easy natural childbirth was, or how quickly she lost her baby weight because she didn?t ?turn into a garbage disposal? like most pregnant women. Boston.com draws out Bridget?s inner bitch:
Talking to the media is not Bridget Moynahan?s favorite activity. Invariably, the actress is asked about her 3-year-old son, John, with former boyfriend Tom Brady, and, of course, the QB?s subsequent marriage to statuesque supermodel Gisele Bundchen. If she can help it, Moynahan usually remains mum. But because the 39-year-old Longmeadow lass has a couple of new projects to promote ? the movie ?Ramona and Beezus,?? due out July 23, and next fall?s TV show ?Blue Bloods?? ? she?s opening up a little more. In the new issue of Self magazine, Moynahan talks about life after No. 12 and even takes a few swipes at Brady?s bride.
?Being a mom, whether single or not, is not easy! Certain individuals and the press present motherhood as if it?s easy or painless, and that?s irresponsible,?? Moynahan says, perhaps referring to Bundchen?s drug-free water birth. ?Girls see pictures in magazines of mothers with fancy baby bags and think it looks glamorous, and that?s not necessarily the case. I?m not complaining about anything in my life ? it?s fantastic. My son is so well adjusted. He has two parents who live in different homes, and that?s what he knows. Having a child didn?t hold me back from a career or a love life or traveling; it has enhanced my life.??
That said, it?s clear Moynahan would prefer not to be the subject of so much tabloid attention. She implies that perhaps Brady and Bundchen don?t share her low opinion of the pesky paparazzi.
?The paparazzi are intrusive, offensive, and aggressive. It?s not something that I respect or, quite frankly, deserve,?? she says. ?I don?t search it out. I lead a quiet life. I don?t go out as much as I?d like because I don?t want my son to be involved in that. We do things privately, like reading Dr. Seuss, playing games, and listening to music. That?s why you haven?t seen many photos of us. I don?t need to parade him around. I want to raise him with a strong sense of self and integrity. He?ll learn from his mistakes. I?m not a believer in encouraging bad behavior or sweeping it under the rug. It better be out on the table.??
So how does she cope?
?No matter what?s been thrown at me in the past couple of years, I try to find the positive. There are a thousand magazines that like the negative. It?s easy to [complain] and to listen to your people [complain], so if someone going through a divorce asks me for advice, I say, ?All the he said/she said stuff doesn?t matter. And your kid will pick up on that energy. Keep your kids the focus,? ?? she says. ?When [my life] was in the news or when challenging things arose while trying to work things out with another person, my attitude was to take the high road. My drama isn?t different from anybody else?s, except people get to see it.??
Bridget said a career and motherhood have not diminished her desire for a satisfying romantic life, but her priorities have changed.
?I do look at men differently now,?? she says. ?There?s a whole category that isn?t in the running: somebody who doesn?t want a family. And, while I?d love to have more children, I?m not sure I want another on my own. One is portable; two are not. Anyone I date is going to have an open heart.??
Going forward? Moynahan says she is ready for anything.
?I?m in the same shape now I was prior to having a baby. I mean, there are little scars, battle wounds from giving birth, for sure, but I?m back to my fighting weight,?? she says. ?It was a combination of wanting to be strong, fit, and healthy and enjoying the stress release. If you are physically well, it feeds your mental and emotional state, and your child senses it. My son eats whatever I?m eating, so it?s a sit-down dinner with protein and vegetables. I don?t want him to snack between meals, so I don?t. I do indulge sometimes. I?m a salty girl ? potato chips or truffle fries and a martini. But for the most part, I live a very healthy life. I?m not going to sit and eat fried Twinkies!??
[From Boston.com]
I see her point, and I like her restraint in not naming names, even though we pretty much know who she?s talking about. And yet - what does it say about Bridget that she?s still concerned about what Gisele is and is not doing or saying about motherhood?
Anyway, these are photos of Tom, Gisele and baby Ben going out for a doctor?s check-up yesterday. Ben is a little cutie - either his face has a lot of character, or he?s just gassy. What am I saying? If Ben had to use the potty, I?m sure he would have already told his mother and walked over to the toilet and gone. And what?s up with Tom?s hair? This isn?t the first time I?ve seen Tom Brady?s new hair style, but this is seriously that longest I?ve ever seen it. It seems like Tom is taking style tips from Justin Bieber, right? Long bangs, side-swept, dare I say, some girlish fringe. Some men can pull that hair off - I?m thinking Daniel Craig in Munich. Tom Brady and Justin Bieber? Not so much. Get a haircut, hippie.

As you may have heard, Gisele Bundchen gave birth Tuesday night to a baby boy. Her mom and her twin sister were there too, so that?s nice. Gisele and Tom Brady haven?t released the name of their son yet, because they didn?t have any names picked out. Tom admitted as much to the press, saying, ?I don’t have any picks, so we haven’t really chosen one yet. But everyone is great. Everyone is doing really well.? But? I thought Tom already knew they were having a boy? Didn?t he have a few names that he was thinking of? I still don?t get it. In addition to Tom?s musings, a source also told People Magazine: ?Gisele is absolutely thrilled. Why shouldn’t she be? She has a beautiful healthy boy! She wants a big family like the one she came from and now is her time. That’s what she’s always wanted most.” I don?t get why this source had to remain unnamed for that comment, it sounds like the kind of innocuous comment that you could easily put your name on. Anyway, that?s not the point of the story.
After Tom spoke to the press, his ex-girlfriend (and mother of his first child, 2-year-old Jack) Bridget Moynahan gave her statement to the press. Was it a brief, courteous ?congratulations to the happy family?? Not exactly. I?ll tell you the truth, when I first read this, I thought ?what?s lodged up Bridget?s ass?? But now that I?ve re-read it a few times, maybe it?s not that bad:
Now that Tom Brady is a father for the second time, his ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan, the mother of his 2-year-old Jack, is offering her congratulations.
“I wish [Tom and Gisele] the best with their baby,” the actress, 38, tells PEOPLE in a statement. “I’m sure my son will enjoy having a half-sibling. I ask the press to respect our privacy while we are welcoming this new addition to our extended family.”
Bndchen, sources say, is currently recovering with her mother Vania and sister Patricia by her side, after delivering the baby boy Tuesday night.
Brady said on Wednesday that the couple have not yet picked a name for their newborn son.
[From People]
It?s curt, right? Like ?okay, whatever, congratulations, now leave me alone.? Were people calling Bridget all day asking for her reaction? Is that why she added the ?I ask the press to respect our privacy? bit? Because if journalists were calling her all day, maybe I can understand that. But I still think it might have been classier to issue a one sentence quickie congrats, something like, ?I am very happy for Tom and Gisele and their new baby, Mazel Tov!? That?s what I would have done.

On Monday, Vanity Fair released an interview with model Gisele Bundchen that was fairly explosive. Bundchen didn’t seem capable of censoring herself or using the slightest bit of tact or discretion. In it, she said her baby stepson (the child of her husband Tom Brady and his ex-girlfriend, actress Bridget Moynahan) is 100 percent her own, amongst other shockingly insensitive claims.
In Vanity Fair, Bundchen not only said John was “100 percent her child,” she added: “It’s not like because somebody else delivered him, that’s not my child. I love him the same way as if he were mine. I already feel like he’s my son, from the first day . . . He’s my little angel — the sweetest, most cuddly, loving baby. I feel blessed to have him in my life. I understand that he has a mom, and I respect that. But to me, it’s not like because somebody else delivered him, that’s not my child — I feel it is, 100 percent.”
[From Page Six]
Bridget hasn?t dignified Giselle?s statements with a response, but her friends say she?s furious at the model?s audacious presumptuousness.
Bridget Moynahan is furious with Gisele Bundchen after Bundchen boldly bragged to Vanity Fair about being mommy to Moynahan and Tom Brady’s son, John. But while Moynahan is taking the high road and keeping quiet, her friends are not.
One close pal told Page Six, “If Gisele loved Bridget’s child like he was ‘100 percent her own,’ then she would not talk about him in the press. Discretion and respect are not either of Gisele or Tom’s virtues, as was evidenced even when the child was still unborn and they publicly flaunted their relationship without any discretion whatsoever.”
Brady and Moynahan broke up before the “Lord of War” star learned she was pregnant and he began dating Bundchen. Moynahan gave birth to John on Aug. 22, 2007.
Moynahan’s friend continued: “Don’t you think Jack will grow up and read her comments and find them disrespectful to him and his mother? If Tom is such a great father as everyone likes to say, then you would think that he’d respect the privacy of his young child and would ask his wife not to use his son as a publicity prop and a subject of public discussion. Is she is so desperate for attention that she can’t find anything more productive to talk about other than Bridget’s child?”
Moynahan’s friend also quipped, “Hey Gisele — real mothers don’t call their kids ‘it.’” Moynahan’s rep declined to comment.
[From Page Six]
A lot of people responded to the original story by saying Gisele was just trying to show how much she loves John and that she doesn?t consider him less important to her for being a stepson instead of her biological child. I think her language is too strong and emphatic for that.
The 100 percent her child thing is just way over the line, mostly because it?s absolutely untrue. John is 100 percent Bridget and Tom?s child. And frankly, that must be a little painful for a newlywed. There is this beautiful, happy baby boy in her life, and he belongs to her husband and his ex-girlfriend. Perhaps Gisele copes with it by trying to maximize her own relationship with John. But in so doing, she also dramatically minimized Bridget.

In a Vanity Fair interview, supermodel Gisele Bundchen, speaking about Tom Brady’s child he had with his ex, proclaimed: “I understand that he has a mom, and I respect that, but to me it?s not like because somebody else delivered him, that?s not my child. I feel it is, 100 percent.” Turns out women don’t like it when you claim their baby is 100% yours. While Bridget Moynahan, the real mother, is staying quiet, a friend says:
“Don’t you think Jack will grow up and read her comments and find them disrespectful to him and his mother? If Tom is such a great father as everyone likes to say, then you would think that he’d respect the privacy of his young child and would ask his wife not to use his son as a publicity prop and a subject of public discussion. Is she is so desperate for attention that she can’t find anything more productive to talk about other than Bridget’s child?”
Her friend also added: “Hey Gisele — real mothers don’t call their kids ‘it.’ ”
Whatever. I think Jack will be happy having a fake supermodel mom. It’ll be great being revered as a god at school. The only awkward part about it is if Gisele catches him masturbating to an old photoshoot of hers. He won’t really be able to explain that one away. The best he’d be able to come up with is, “Uh, wrong page.”
