Gisele Bündchen, 44, and boyfriend Joaquim Valente, 35, are expecting their first baby together, and her third child. Bündchen shares son Benjamin Rein, 14, and daughter Vivian Lake, 11, with her ex-husband. Tom Brady.
Sources told PEOPLE in a statement: “Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life and they’re looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family.”
Bündchen has been dating Valente, a Jiu-Jitsu instructor, since June 2023.The duo worked together in 2021 on a photo shoot for Dust magazine, and Valente went on to become Bündchen’s jiu-jitsu instructor. Bündchen and Brady announced their divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage.
While the two met platonically while Bündchen was still married to Brady, the supermodel has repeatedly denied rumors that she cheated on Brady, or was romantically involved with Valente during the course of her former marriage. Bündchen told The New York Times in March: “That is a lie. This is something that happens to a lot of women who get blamed when they have the courage to leave an unhealthy relationship and are labeled as being unfaithful. They have to deal with their communities. They have to deal with their family. Of course for me, it just happens to be a little bit amplified.”
