Life and family
John Bradman was previously known as John Bradsen, having changed his last name in his early 30s to avoid the pressures associated with the name's celebrity. He stated that the change was not "to pretend I was somebody other than who I was but simply to say...please give me a break". John Bradman featured in an episode of the Australian TV show Australian Story, "Being Bradman", which aired in 2015. John Bradman also appeared in the documentary "Bradman and Tendulkar", which aired on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in 2023. He has been the regular presenter of the Don Award for the Sport Australia Hall of Fame.

He has three children: Greta Bradman, Tom Bradman, and Nick Bradman. Greta Bradman is an operatic soprano, psychologist, and radio broadcaster. She has released multiple albums and performed at numerous national events in Australia, including the State Memorial Service of Shane Warne. Tom Bradman worked at the Australian Department of Agriculture before taking up farming, appearing on the Australian TV show Landline, in which he discussed his approach to regenerative agriculture. In 2017, Nick Bradman appeared on the front cover of the South Australian newspaper The Advertiser, after attaining a university entrance score of 99.95 (eclipsing his grandfather's batting average of 99.94). He subsequently received the University Medal in law from the Australian National University.
