Gisele Bündchen has welcomed her third child, marking her first with boyfriend Joaquim Valente. The 44-year-old model’s pregnancy was kept private, with TMZ reporting that the exact date of birth remains unclear, though it is said to have occurred “recently.” The last public glimpse of her baby bump was shared on January 31, alongside a heartfelt post about her happiness.
Bündchen’s pregnancy was revealed in October, around the time she was 5 to 6 months along. Sources confirmed to TMZ that both she and the baby are healthy, and the model is “super happy.” The baby’s gender has not been disclosed, and the couple had chosen to keep it a surprise, similar to how she approached the births of her two children with ex-husband Tom Brady. Bündchen made sure her children, Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12, were informed of the pregnancy before it became public knowledge. Brady, according to reports, was “stunned” by the news.
Bündchen and Valente’s Relationship
Gisele Bündchen and Joaquim Valente began making headlines after her divorce from Brady in October 2022. The couple was first spotted together in Costa Rica in November 2022. At the time, it was reported by Page Six that their relationship was “strictly platonic and professional.” However, as of February 2024, a source confirmed their romantic relationship to PEOPLE. According to the insider, they “started out as great friends first,” with Bündchen keeping the details of their relationship private as they got to know each other.
A second source revealed that Valente was a major support for Bündchen during her divorce. “He was a huge comfort for Gisele while she went through her divorce. Their friendship turned romantic after the divorce,” the source said. Though the couple has kept a low profile, fans are curious to see if Valente will join Bündchen at a future event or red carpet. Given that she just gave birth, she will likely focus on spending time with her growing family for now.
