Wed Oct 30 09:50:00 UTC 2024: ## Gisele Bündchen Expecting Baby with Jiu-Jitsu Instructor Boyfriend
**Supermodel Gisele Bündchen is expecting her third child, her first with boyfriend Joaquim Valente, a source close to the couple confirmed to PEOPLE.**
Bündchen, 44, and Valente, 37, have been dating since June 2023. The pair were first spotted together in November 2022, sparking rumors of a relationship, which they initially denied.
The baby will join Bündchen’s two children from her marriage to Tom Brady: son Benjamin Rein, 14, and daughter Vivian Lake, 11. Brady and Bündchen divorced in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage.
A source close to the couple told PEOPLE that Bündchen and Valente are “happy for this new chapter in their life” and are “looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family.”
The news of Bündchen’s pregnancy comes amidst speculation surrounding her absence from the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, an event she was once a mainstay of. Bündchen served as a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 1999 until 2006.
Sources have described Bündchen as “blossomed” since her split from Brady, with a focus on her personal life and her two children. The couple are reportedly taking their relationship “slow” and have maintained a degree of privacy surrounding their romance.
