Gisele Bündchen, one of the most recognizable faces in fashion, is also a devoted mother. She has three children—two from her marriage to Tom Brady and a newborn with her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente.
Rumors of Bündchen’s pregnancy had been circulating for months, and on October 28, 2024, a source confirmed to PEOPLE that the supermodel was expecting her third child with Valente. The two have been dating since June 2023. Their romance first made headlines in late 2022, but it wasn’t until the following year that they became official.
Before Valente, Bündchen was married to NFL legend Tom Brady. The two tied the knot on February 26, 2009, in an intimate ceremony at St. Monica Catholic Church in Santa Monica, California. They later held a second wedding in Costa Rica that April. Their marriage lasted 13 years, but on October 28, 2022, they finalized their divorce.
Since then, Bündchen has been open about the challenges of single motherhood. In a September 2023 interview with PEOPLE, Gisele admitted that raising her kids without a partner had been “tough” on the family.
Here’s a closer look at her journey as a mother and the three children who mean everything to her—Benjamin Rein Brady, Vivian Lake Brady, and her newest addition.
Benjamin Rein Brady
Bündchen welcomed her first child, Benjamin Rein Brady, on December 8, 2009, in Boston. His birth was anything but conventional—Bündchen was determined to have a home birth, despite Brady’s initial hesitation.

“It was a home birth, and it was funny because he didn’t want me to have a home birth,” the model revealed in the ESPN+ series Man in the Arena: Tom Brady in December 2021.
Despite his concerns, Bündchen stood by her decision, believing in a natural and intimate birthing experience.
Vivian Lake
Gisele and her ex-husband Tom welcomed their second child, a daughter, Vivian Lake Brady, on December 5, 2012, in Boston. The youngest of their two children, Vivian has grown into a bright and adventurous girl with a love for fashion and horseback riding—two passions the star kid shares with her mother.
In October 2022, Bündchen was spotted enjoying an equestrian lesson with her daughter.
On Vivian’s 12th birthday, Gisele took to Instagram to celebrate her “ray of sunshine,” writing, “You are the best daughter a mom could ever ask for, and I’m so blessed to be your mama!”

Gisele Bündchen’s Third Baby With Joaquim Valente
Two years after finalizing her divorce from Tom, Gisele embraced a new chapter in her life—motherhood once again. A source close to her confirmed that the model was expecting her third child with her boyfriend, Joaquim, in October, sharing that the couple was overjoyed.
“Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life, and they’re looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family,” an insider told PEOPLE.
In February 2025, TMZ reported that Bündchen had given birth, though no details about the baby’s name or sex were immediately revealed. For now, the couple is keeping things private, focusing on their growing family.
