Social media users believe that the lavish gift Tom Brady gave his 15-year-old son is too much. The commentary comes after the NFL icon celebrated his son’s birthday with a heartfelt post online.
Football legend Tom Brady shared exciting highlights from his time at this year’s Super Bowl on YouTube on February 17, 2025. Included in that video is a snippet of him gifting his son Benjamin Brady a luxurious watch for his 15th birthday. While the father-son moment was endearing, online viewers disagreed with the act of giving such an expensive gift to someone so young.

“Alright B, close your eyes, put your wrist up,” said Tom as he fetched his son's extravagant diamond watch from a box and unclasped it. After instructing Benjamin's friends to close their eyes as well, the doting dad proceeded to place the silver watch on Benjamin's wrist.

“It feels shiny,” noted Benjamin as he waited to see his gift. Once Tom Brady gave him the go-ahead to open his eyes and look, the 15-year-old reacted with pleasant surprise as he showed the lavish item off to the camera.
Social media users who saw this footage did not hold back with their strong opinions. “Too expensive of a gift for a 15 year old [sic],” opined a Facebooker, while another exclaimed, “What a waste of money! The kid will probably jump in the ocean with it and lose it!” A fellow observer echoed, “Sorry but that is just ridiculous.” More details on the story will follow shortly.
