Gisele Bündchen is eagerly stepping into an exciting new phase of her life as she prepares to welcome her third child—her first with boyfriend Joaquim Valente. The Brazilian supermodel, who has been looking forward to this moment, is embracing the future with openness and excitement. According to a source who spoke with People on Monday, Bündchen is “approaching this next chapter with joy,” just days after news of her pregnancy became public.
At 44 years old, Bündchen managed to keep her pregnancy private for as long as possible, but the physical changes eventually became too noticeable to conceal. “She wanted to keep it a secret, but it was becoming difficult,” an insider revealed. Gisele already shares two children—14-year-old Benjamin and 11-year-old Vivian—with her ex-husband, NFL legend Tom Brady.
Bündchen and Brady were married for 13 years before finalizing their divorce in October 2022 after months of speculation. Despite their split, they’ve maintained a respectful co-parenting relationship focused on their children’s well-being. According to Page Six, Brady, now 47, learned of Gisele’s pregnancy through private channels and was reportedly “stunned” by the news.
“Tom knew Gisele and Joaquim were serious, but he never expected they would have a child together,” a source said. “It was a surprise to him when she shared the news.”
Gisele is reportedly several months along, and both she and Valente are overjoyed about the future. A source told People that the couple is “thrilled to be starting this new chapter together” and is committed to creating a peaceful and loving home. Family has always been Gisele’s priority, and this new addition is no exception.
Gisele and Joaquim’s relationship began shortly after her divorce from Brady was finalized. The pair were first spotted together in November 2022, and their bond has grown stronger ever since. By February, insiders described them as “deeply in love,” with their relationship continuing to flourish.
For Gisele, this pregnancy represents more than just expanding her family—it’s part of a broader journey toward a life filled with love, balance, and new beginnings. Since her split from Brady, she has been vocal about her desire to focus on her personal well-being, family, and finding peace outside the spotlight.
Recently, Gisele has been spending more quality time with Joaquim and her two children, taking family trips and building lasting memories. Valente, a dedicated jiu-jitsu instructor, has been a constant source of support throughout her journey and is excited to be an active part of their growing family.
The couple is focused on creating a nurturing and harmonious environment for their children, with family values at the heart of their vision for a happy life together.
While the news of Gisele’s pregnancy may have surprised some, those close to her say she is in a wonderful place. “She feels incredibly blessed and is excited about the future,” a source shared. With Joaquim by her side, she’s ready to welcome their new baby and continue fostering a warm and supportive home.
As for Tom Brady, while the news was unexpected, sources say he remains supportive of Gisele as they continue to co-parent their children. Despite their differences, both are committed to providing stability and love for Benjamin and Vivian.
Gisele Bündchen’s journey from international supermodel to devoted mother has been marked by resilience and grace. Now, as she prepares to welcome her third child, she is embracing this next chapter with love, joy, and a hopeful outlook on the future.
