Gisele Bündchen surprised fans last year when news surfaced that she and her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, were expecting a baby. Already a mom of two with ex-husband Tom Brady, Gisele has kept this pregnancy mostly under wraps—though that hasn’t stopped the paparazzi from snapping photos. But now, for the first time, the Brazilian supermodel is sharing her own photos, proudly showing off her growing baby bump on social media.
On January 29, one day after honoring the first anniversary of her mother’s passing, Gisele turned to social media to share a deeply personal message. “Happiness is an inside job. Remember, you are the only one who has the power to create the life you want to live. 🙏,” she wrote on Instagram.
Along with her post, Gisele shared a video featuring a voice-over with an uplifting take on happiness, quoting Nate Broskii’s Memories Don’t Fade Away. “One day, you’ll realize that happiness was never about your job, title, or being in a relationship. It was never about following in the footsteps of others or trying to fit in. One day, you’ll see that happiness has always been about self-discovery,” the narration says.
The video featured a montage of happy moments, with Gisele soaking up nature—especially dreamy beachside views. But one clip stood out the most. Though brief, it gave fans a clear glimpse of her growing baby bump.
In the photo, Gisele is captured in profile, tenderly cradling her baby bump. She paired a leopard-print skirt with a bikini top, showing off her effortless maternity glow. The backdrop was just as breathtaking—a golden sunset casting a fiery glow over the ocean. Instead of taking a moment to talk about her pregnancy, the supermodel focused on her powerful message, which appears to have become her guiding philosophy.
Gisele’s pregnancy with Joaquim Valente first made headlines in late October, with reports estimating she was about five or six months along. “Gisele and Joaquim are overjoyed about this new chapter and are eager to create a peaceful, loving home for their growing family,” a source told People. While her exact due date remains unknown, she’s expected to welcome her baby in early 2025.
Already a devoted mom to Benjamin and Vivian—her children with ex-husband Tom Brady—Gisele has been seen multiple times leaving the gym, proudly embracing her pregnancy. A People insider revealed that she’s “feeling great” and staying active with “Pilates and other exercises that will support her during childbirth.” The source added, “She’s always prioritized her health—she eats clean, meditates daily, and sticks to her wellness routine.”
