Gisele Bündchen has given birth to her third child, marking a new chapter in her life with boyfriend Joaquim Valente. While details about the baby’s name and gender remain under wraps, sources say the supermodel is overjoyed.
A New Addition to the Family
The 44-year-old model, who shares two children—Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12—with ex-husband Tom Brady, has now embraced motherhood once again. TMZ first reported the news, revealing that Bündchen recently gave birth, though an exact date hasn’t been confirmed.
Close friends say Gisele is in high spirits. An insider told PEOPLE, “She’s truly thriving,” adding that the model appears to be the happiest she has ever been.
A Home Birth and a Private Affair
Unlike her previous pregnancies, Bündchen reportedly planned to have a home birth. Sources close to the couple shared that Joaquim was eagerly anticipating the baby’s arrival. “The baby has been a happy surprise,” an insider shared, emphasizing that the couple wanted a calm and intimate experience.
So far, Bündchen has not made any public comments about the birth, choosing instead to keep this moment private. Given her history of being selective about what she shares publicly, it’s unclear when—or if—she will make an official statement.
Relationship with Joaquim Valente
Bündchen and Valente have been together since June 2023. While their romance sparked interest due to its timing—shortly after her divorce from Brady—the model has been clear that she’s focused on happiness and growth.
People close to her say she is in a secure, loving place. “She is so busy with her life that she doesn’t have time to dwell on the negatives,” a source said.
Bündchen’s pregnancy first became public in November, but the couple managed to keep most details private. Even now, they continue to stay out of the spotlight, preferring to enjoy this moment as a family.
What’s Next for Gisele?
With her family expanding, Bündchen will likely take a step back from public engagements, at least temporarily. Known for balancing her career with motherhood, she has always prioritized her children’s well-being.
Her co-parenting relationship with Tom Brady remains civil, with both parents working to provide stability for their kids. How this new addition will affect that dynamic remains to be seen, but those close to Bündchen say she is committed to making it work.
One thing is certain: Gisele Bündchen is stepping into this next chapter on her own terms.
