A day later on Thanksgiving Day, Gisele made the subtle statement of support just a month after they announced their separation.
This came just as footage of Brady hugging son Jack emerged after the pair practiced alongside the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
A clip has surfaced of the pair during practice in which Brady goes up from behind to his son and then hugs him in a heartwarming video, before throwing a football onto the pitch together.
Brady, who has shown his support for the USMNT during this week’s World Cup, can be seen in the background watching in his orange No. 12 training jersey.

Brady shares Jack with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan. He also has a daughter, Vivian Lake, nine, and son Benjamin Rein, 12, with ex-wife Gisele Bundchen, whom he divorced in October after 13 years of marriage.
The 45-year-old also shared a series of photos of Jack at training with his Instagram story. One had the same image as his main post, but this time accompanied it with: “Fire that pigskin!!!!”
He also posted a picture of Jack wearing a Buccaneers cap, pretending to talk to someone, while Brady has his back to the camera.
Finally, he posted a photo of his son next to himself and teammates Ryan Griffin, Blaine Gabbert and Kyle Trask, with the caption, “Just one of the boys.”

Earlier this week, Brady spoke about Thanksgiving and how much the holiday meant to him as a father.
“I think as a parent and thankful during Thanksgiving, it’s always time for family,” he said on his Let’s go! podcast.
“When you think about this holiday and the commitment that parents have and that my parents have made to me and my career, it’s incredible.”
Brady acknowledged his entire family’s role in his 23-season career, saying he “looks forward to finishing strong here after Thanksgiving.”
“And of course with a lot of gratitude to the people who have made such a huge impact in my life and supported me throughout this amazing career,” he continued. “I just want to be that for my kids. You know, I just want to be the best father I can be.’
Brady and supermodel Gisele Bundchen divorced in October after 13 years of marriage
Brady and Bundchen confirmed their divorce in October in Instagram statements. She said her priority had “always” been the kids, but the couple had “grown apart.” In his statement, Brady said the decision was “painful and difficult.”
Discussing his Thanksgiving plans, Brady said he’s had “a lot of plain pie this year” and “might enjoy a little pumpkin pie and whipped cream.” I’m going to enjoy it. It’s going to be a good Thanksgiving.”
However, Brady will be celebrating Thanksgiving with one less family member this year, following his split from Bundchen.
The NFL superstar and Brazilian supermodel confirmed their split on Oct. 28 after weeks of speculation.
Brady removed Bundchen from his Twitter header when he deleted a beach photo of the former couple and their children.
The Bucs are 5-5 this season after a bye week and early season struggles, while Sunday’s opponents are 3-7.
