Gisele Bündchen Has Given Birth to Her 3rd Child After Divorcing Tom Brady — Who’s the Father?

Gisele Bündchen has given birth to her third child, her first with her boyfriend—a relationship she initially downplayed amid public speculation. This joyful news comes more than two years after her high-profile divorce from football star Tom Brady.

According to TMZ, the Brazilian model is very happy, and both she and her baby are healthy. The baby’s date of birth and gender have not been revealed. It was previously reported that the couple chose not to learn the baby’s gender before birth.

Gisele and Tom first met in 2006 and married three years later in 2009, building a family with their two children, Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12.

Tom also has an older son, Jack, from his previous relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan, whom Gisele warmly refers to as her “bonus child.” Though Gisele had already achieved career success by age 26, she felt prepared to embrace family life.

However, her marriage to Tom grew tense as his career continued to overshadow family commitments. In 2020, Tom admitted that Gisele felt he wasn’t doing his “part for the family,” feeling sidelined as he focused on football.

After initially retiring in 2022, the former football quarterback’s decision to return to the NFL reportedly left Gisele feeling “frustrated” and “hurt,” with sources noting that she wanted more family time.

By October 2022, after 13 years of marriage, they filed for divorce. The former couple finalized both custody and property arrangements, bringing their marriage to an official close.

Over a year later in June 2023, Gisele began dating fitness trainer Joaquim Valente, with a source confirming their relationship in February 2024.

“[…] They’re taking it slow. They started out as great friends first. She’s very private about this and wanted to keep it quiet while they got to know each other,” the insider added.

Although rumors suggested a longer history, insiders clarified that they met in December 2021. The supermodel first addressed speculations about Joaquim in March 2023, expressing her gratitude for him and his brothers, Pedro and Gui, who run a self-defense training program.

“I’m so grateful to know all of them, because not only have they helped me and helped my kids, but they have become great friends, and Joaquim especially,” said the mother of two.

“He’s our teacher and, most importantly, he’s a person that I admire and that I trust. It’s so good to have that kind of energy, to have my kids around that type of energy,” Gisele continued.

She and Joaquim were first seen together in Costa Rica in November 2022, though she initially denied any romance. Their friendship eventually blossomed into a relationship as he was a “huge comfort” for the fashion model amid her divorce, said a source.

However, their romance sparked rumors of cheating on her part after her split from Tom. Gisele denied the accusations, calling them “a lie” and pointing out the unfair scrutiny women often face when leaving “unhealthy” relationships.

Nearly 18 months post-divorce, she confirmed she was dating someone, noting, “This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first. It’s very different. It is very honest, and it’s very transparent.”

Joaquim, who, like Gisele, is originally from Brazil and holds a criminology degree, shares many similarities with her. An insider described him as “down to earth, kind, and inspiring,” adding that dating Joaquim has felt natural for Gisele, who was initially hesitant to enter a new relationship.

The two share a love for Miami, travel, and healthy living, with the source noting, “Joaquim is perfect for her.” Gisele is reportedly in a great space and truly enjoying this new chapter in her life.

In June 2024, the lovebirds were seen together in Surfside, Florida, sparking curiosity amid rumors of a split. The two, dressed casually, looked cozy as they walked their dogs, with Gisele’s arm around Joaquim.

A fashion insider shared that the Brazilian native has been thriving since her split from Tom, feeling “secure and happy.” Reports suggested tension arose after a Netflix roast of Tom, which left Gisele “deeply disappointed” by its portrayal of her family. It reportedly added stress to her relationship with Joaquim.

However, just a few months later, in October 2024, exciting news emerged, revealing that Gisele and Joaquim were expecting their first child together.

A source shared, “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.”

That same day, Gisele, 44, was spotted in Miami with her German Shepherd, Alfie, dressed casually in a black cap, t-shirt, shorts, and white sneakers.

Wanting to ensure her family was informed personally, Gisele reportedly shared the news directly with Tom and their two children before it reached the media.

Sources revealed that the celebrity, sensitive to the potential impact, preferred Tom to hear it directly from her, ensuring openness within the family during this new chapter.

In November, Gisele and Joaquim enjoyed a lunch outing in Miami with her kids. The public figure dressed in a flowy beige top and cap, subtly covering her bump with a large tan handbag, while Joaquim kept it casual in a black T-shirt and shorts.

Gisele Bündchen‘s journey into this new chapter reflects her dedication to family and personal happiness, embracing life’s changes with grace and optimism. Congratulations to the new parents!
