Bridget Moynahan Was 'Heartbroken' and Pregnant After Brady Break-Up
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Bridget Moynahan says she had a "traumatic time of being heartbroken" and pregnant after the relationship with her baby's father, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, ended.
"I'm not sure anyone — and I could be wrong in this — grows up thinking, 'I want to be a single mom,'" Moynahan, 37, says in the July issue of Harper's Bazaar, according to People.com.
Shortly after the end of her three-year relationship with Brady — who is dating supermodel Gisele Bündchen — Moynahan announced her pregnancy.

I'm a traditional girl, and I believe in marriage, and I just always thought that's the way I'd be doing this," she says. "For a moment, it was hard for me to accept that this was the way I was going to have a family."
She gave birth to John — whom she gave her last name — last August.
"I walk in and just started sobbing," she says of coming home alone with her son. "All of a sudden, you have this newborn you have no training for. It's frightening."

"It's golden and it's tough and it was f—-ed up. But now I have a child, and it's the best thing in the world."
