Gisele Bündchen Feeling “Very Lucky” As She Expects Baby With Boyfriend Joaquim Valente
Supermodel Gisele Bündchen is glowing with excitement as she embraces her third pregnancy, and her first with boyfriend Joaquim Valente, a source exclusively told PEOPLE. The 44-year-old mom of two is already several months along and is eagerly awaiting the arrival of her baby, with plans for a home birth.
Gisele isn’t rushing to learn the sex of the baby — she prefers the surprise and will find out once the baby is born. According to the source, Gisele feels great during this pregnancy and is enjoying life in Miami, where she’s thriving alongside her family.
“Gisele’s very happy in Miami. She enjoys her life there. Everyone’s thriving,” the source shared. As for her relationship with Joaquim, things are going strong.
“They started out as friends, but have been seriously dating for over a year,” the source explained, adding, “She’s excited about the baby and feels good. She’s several months along and planning a home birth.”
According to the source, Gisele feels “very lucky” to have met Joaquim, a jiu-jitsu instructor, and the two are excited about the new chapter they’re entering together.
Joaquim, 37, and Gisele, who began dating in June 2023 after months of friendship, are ready to create a loving and peaceful home for their growing family. “They’re taking it slow, but are both excited for the baby,” the insider continued.
Gisele is already the proud mother of two children — 14-year-old Benjamin Rein and 11-year-old Vivian Lake — from her previous marriage to retired NFL star Tom Brady. The couple announced their divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage but continue to share joint custody of their children.
The source’s statement about Gisele came after she was spotted out and about in Miami on October 28, just as exciting news about her pregnancy surfaced. The 44-year-old was seen enjoying a casual walk with her loyal German Shepherd, Alfie, as she strolled through the Florida city.
Dressed in a relaxed outfit — black baseball cap, black t-shirt, dark gray shorts, and white tennis shoes — Gisele looked effortlessly chic and at ease.
