Gisele Bundchen is pregnant with her third child and first with her new partner and jiu jitsu coach, Joaquim Valente. The supermodel, 44, has been in a relationship with Valente, 37, since June 2023 – shortly after her divorce from Tom Brady. According to information, he is five or six months old.
“Gisele and Joaquim are happy with this new chapter in their lives and look forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the entire family,” a source tells PEOPLE in a statement. Gisele already has two children, Benjamin Rein, 14, and daughter Vivian Lake, 11, with ex-husband Tom Brady.
Bündchen, who was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 1999 to 2006, was notably absent from the much-talked-about October 15 Victoria’s Secret show, despite the return of several Angels before.
Bundchen and Valente were first spotted together in November 2022 when the couple visited Provincia de Puntarenas (a province located on the coast of Costa Rica) with their two children.
After initially denying the relationship with her trainer, which was later officially revealed to be between the couple until February 2024, a source confirmed to PEOPLE that Bündchen and Valente have been together since June 2023.
In June 2024, sources reported that the supermodel has been “blooming” since her split from Brady. “She’s safe and happy and so busy with her life that she doesn’t have time to deal with the negatives,” the source said. Brady and Bundchen divorced in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage. They agreed to joint custody of their children. At this point, let’s mention that Brady, 47, has another child, John “Jack” Edward Thomas, 17, with his former partner, actress Bridget Moynahan.
With the pandemic, Gisele switched to homeschooling her son Ben and her daughter with her ex-husband, ex-football icon Tom Brady. Now, he is settled in Miami, after finishing his divorce. Bundchen relied on meditation, daily exercise (“I work out every day,” she says, noting a combination of walks, yoga and weights), and a commitment to wellness through diet. She also gave up alcohol in an effort to sleep better and feel more present in her daily life.
