Bündchen revealed earlier this year thatBenjamin has been playing football for the first time.

“Benny’s doing football,” she told PEOPLE, revealing the teen is continuing with dadBrady’s tradition of wearing a number 12 on his jersey.

The mom of two later added, “It makes me proud to see how they’re all becoming their own little individual selves, but how their principles and their values are so strong. It makes me so happy to see that they’re flourishing into their own beings.”
