Bridget Moynahan never thought she would be a single parent.

The I, Robot star – who has a nine-month-old baby John with supermodel Gisele Bundchen’s American football player boyfriend Tom Brady – never contemplated having to raise a child alone.
Bridget announced her pregnancy last February two months after her relationship with Tom had ended and he had started dating Gisele. Bridget said: “I’m a traditional girl, and I believe in marriage, and I just always thought that’s the way I’d be doing this.
“For a moment, it was hard for me to accept that this was the way I was going to have a family. I’m not sure anyone – and I could be wrong in this – grows up thinking, ‘I want to be a single mom.'”
It was not until the star had actually given birth that the reality of her situation began to sink in.
Speaking about taking John home for the first time, Bridget told People magazine: “I walked in and just started sobbing. All of a sudden, you have this newborn you have no training for. It’s frightening.”
