Gisele Bündchen gives birth third child two years after Tom Brady split

Gisele Bündchen has welcomed her first child with boyfriend Joaquim Valente - making her a proud mum of three. The 44-year-old supermodel has been linked to 37-year-old jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim since June 2023 - and reports emerged last October that they were expecting a baby together. The couple have been silent about their reported relationship - but have been snapped happy in each others' company while on beaches and out in public in the months since their romance was first discovered.

Gisele was previously married to American football superstar Tom Brady, 47, from 2009 until their divorce was finalised in 2022 and they share a son named Benjamin, 15, and a daughter named Vivian, 12. Tom has another son named John, 17, from a past relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan, 53. Now Gisele and Joaquim are said to be proud parents together having welcomed their first child together. It is unclear exactly when their baby arrived - and whether they are parents to a new son or daughter.

TMZ broke the news of the arrival on Thursday, writing: "We're told Gisele is super happy and mom and the baby are healthy. It's unclear when the new bundle arrived but we're told it was recently." It has previously been reported that the pair wanted to wait for their baby to arrive to discover its gender. The Mirror has contacted a spokesperson of Gisele for comment. The model has previously shared her pride in being a parent - saying it is her biggest role in life. She wrote in her memoir, Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life: “If I ever hear someone saying, ‘She’s just a mom,’ it makes me angry. Being ‘just a mom’ is the foundation of everything.

"Being ‘just a mom’ ensures that our children have the foundation and support they need to succeed not just at work but at life. Millions of ‘just moms’ are busy raising future men and women who will someday influence the world in either positive or negative ways. Our culture likes to treat the daily multitasking that women perform as something to be expected. They’re not. There are a lot of mothers out there who make everything possible and everything happen, and I think they’re amazing.”.

She also described the mum guilt she felt after welcoming her kids as she had to spend time away from them due to her busy schedule. She wrote: “I had all this horrible, self-imposed guilt. "I thought what a terrible mother I was for leaving my child even for like a day... I was feeling guilty for [taking them with her] too. Like, ‘Here we are on a plane and the baby is crying.’". She also told Vogue in 2017: "As a mother, you’re always giving. It’s important to give something to yourself, so you can give from a place of being full, instead of giving from a place of being depleted, which isn’t healthy for you or for the family.".
