Supermodel Gisele Bündchen, 44, is reportedly preparing for an at-home birth as she anticipates the arrival of her third child, this time with her boyfriend, jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente. Sources close to the couple shared that Bündchen is “excited” about this new chapter and “very happy” with her life in Miami.
“Gisele feels very fortunate to have met Joaquim,” a source told People, revealing that their relationship began as a friendship and grew into a serious partnership over the past year. Bündchen is several months along and is embracing the plan for a home birth, with the couple choosing to keep the baby’s sex a surprise.
Bündchen, already mother to Benjamin, 14, and Vivian, 11, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Tom Brady, reportedly informed both her children and Brady of the pregnancy before the news broke publicly. While Brady has yet to comment directly, he shared a reflective Instagram Story featuring lyrics from The Chicks’ “Landslide” shortly after the announcement, sparking speculation among fans.
Bündchen and Valente have been linked romantically since early 2023, with sources describing them as “deeply in love.” The couple is reportedly eager to welcome their first child together, marking a meaningful step forward in their relationship.
