Gisele Bündchen just opened up her family album, giving fans a rare peek at her home life. The supermodel, 45, shared some truly sweet moments featuring her 8-month-old son with his older siblings. It’s clear that family time is everything to her, and the pictures spoke volumes.
On Sunday, October 12, Gisele posted a series of heartwarming snaps on Instagram. She captioned the collection with a thoughtful message: “There’s only one thing more precious than our time… It’s who we choose to spend it with.” This caption perfectly set the tone for the intimate photos.
The shared images showed different facets of her busy life. One picture caught Gisele striking a pose in front of a mirror with a dog nearby, hinting at a workout session. Another tender scene featured her 15-year-old son, Benjamin, seated at a piano. Resting comfortably on his lap was his baby brother, a clear sign of sibling bonding. A third slide melted hearts, showing a cozy moment between Gisele and her 12-year-old daughter, Vivian.
A New Chapter for the Family
Benjamin and Vivian are Gisele’s children from her previous marriage to Tom Brady. The couple was married for 13 years, from 2009 until their divorce in 2022. Since then, Gisele has found new love and moved forward with Joaquim Valente. Last autumn, the exciting news broke that the couple was expecting their first child together.
When Gisele decided to share her pregnancy news, she made sure everyone was in the loop. A source close to the situation revealed to a well-known entertainment publication that Gisele told her children first. Then, she extended the courtesy of informing Tom Brady about the upcoming arrival. She knew it was only a matter of time before the kids would share the news themselves.
Tom, who is 48, was reportedly surprised by the pregnancy, but ultimately happy for his ex-wife. The source noted that the news was "hard to digest" at first. However, he quickly acknowledged that Gisele is an amazing mother, and this new chapter was meant for her. Tom’s primary focus continued to be on their children, Benjamin and Vivian. He also shares an 18-year-old son, Jack, with his former partner, Bridget Moynahan.
Another insider shared with the same magazine that Tom is committed to maintaining peace for their children. He simply wants everyone to be happy and healthy. It was also clarified that Tom knew about Gisele’s pregnancy long before it became public knowledge. He respects Gisele’s independence, allowing her to live her life and make her own personal choices.
Life with the Little One
Gisele welcomed her baby in February. While the baby’s full name hasn’t been publicly revealed, a report from People magazine indicated that the middle name is River. It’s a subtle detail that adds to the charm of her growing family.
In May, Gisele offered a glimpse into her postpartum routine during an interview with Vogue France. She shared how much her life had changed. "Now that my little one sleeps through the night, I’ve regained control of my routine," she explained. "As any new mother knows, it’s incredible how much sleep — or lack of sleep — can change everything. But, once again, I feel truly grateful: being able to be home with my children and enjoy every moment with them is priceless."
When asked about her perfect day, the Brazilian supermodel’s answer was simple and heartfelt. She said it would involve "being with my family, especially when we can do outdoor activities together. Spending time with them is what makes me happiest." This philosophy clearly guides her life choices.
Gisele tends to keep photos of her youngest child somewhat private. However, she did share a no-makeup selfie with the baby in August. This post was part of a look back at her summer adventures. Another photo showed her enjoying a ride on a golf cart, sporting a bright orange swimsuit. Her caption for the summer recap was sweet: "Thank you, summer, you’ve been so good to us! 💛 Obrigada, verão, você foi tão bom conosco."
