Supermodel Gisele Bündchen became a mom of three in 2025, welcoming a son with Joaquim Valente and later marrying him in a quiet Florida ceremony. The new baby joins siblings Benjamin and Vivian, whom she shares with ex-husband Tom Brady.
A New Arrival in February 2025
Bündchen and Valente’s son arrived in February 2025, with TMZ first to report the birth. A source later confirmed to News Of Los Angeles that the newborn was a boy and revealed his middle name: River.
The couple kept details private at first, choosing not to share the baby’s first name or sex publicly. The water-themed middle name continues a family pattern-Vivian Lake and Benjamin Rein also have aquatic-inspired middle names.
First Photos and Mother’s Day Debut
In May 2025, Bündchen posted the first photos of her baby boy on Instagram to mark Mother’s Day.

Life Update: Sleep, Routine, and Gratitude
Speaking to Vogue France in May 2025, Bündchen reflected on her first three months as a mom of three.

She emphasized feeling “truly grateful” to be home with her children and called the experience “priceless.”
From Dating to Marriage
Bündchen and Valente, a third-generation Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor, began dating in June 2023 after training together post-divorce. Romance rumors had surfaced a year earlier, but the relationship became official mid-2023.
In October 2024, News Of Los Angeles confirmed the couple was expecting. Ten months after their son’s birth, they wed in an intimate ceremony in Surfside, Florida.
