Model Gisele Bündchen is expecting a baby with boyfriend Joaquim Valente and will wait for birth to discover the child’s sex, outlets reported Monday. Bündchen, who has a girl, Vivian, 11, and a boy, Benjamin, 14, with ex-husband Tom Brady , was seen hanging out with Valente, her jiu-jitsu instructor, amid her 2022 divorce from the NFL great. Romance blossomed later, a source told People .
“They started out as friends, but have been seriously dating for over a year,” the source told the magazine. “She’s excited about the baby and feels good. She’s several months along and planning a home birth.
” The two, both from Brazil, are based in the Miami area. Bündchen, 44, gave Brady, 47, and their children the news before it went public, sources told TMZ . Back in March, Bündchen confirmed to The New York Times that she was dating someone but did not name him.
“This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first,” she said. “It’s very different. It is very honest, and it’s very transparent.
” Shortly after the announcement, Brady, now a football analyst on Fox, shared an Instagram story that some outlets interpreted as a reaction to the news. The Chicks’ version of the Fleetwood Mac hit “Landslide” played with a photo of a low sun over nature on a hillside. “Oh mirror in the sky, what is love,” the printed lyrics on his post read.
“Can the child inside my heart rise above / Can I sail through the changing ocean tides.
