Gisele Bündchen is making headlines as she shares a rare glimpse of her newborn baby while celebrating her 45th birthday. The Brazilian supermodel took to Instagram on July 23 to express her gratitude and showcase precious moments with her little one, whom she welcomed with boyfriend Joaquim Valente in February.
In her heartfelt post, Bündchen shared several snapshots featuring her baby and family enjoying nature. One particularly touching image captured a thoughtful birthday gift—a footprint of her baby alongside the words “Feliz aniversario Mamae!!!” (Happy Birthday, Mommy!!!). In her caption, she expressed, “Haven’t been around here much, but I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all the warm birthday wishes. I’m so grateful for another trip around the sun and even more grateful to have spent it in nature, surrounded by love and my family.”
Bündchen’s birthday celebration comes just three months after giving birth, and she has been candid about her journey into motherhood. In a profile for Vogue France, she shared that her baby is now sleeping through the night, allowing her to regain control of her routine. “As any new mom knows, it can be quite a challenge, but I’m finding my rhythm again,” she noted.
On this special day, she also took a moment to remember her late mother, saying, “Today is also my mom’s birthday. We miss her deeply, but we know she’s always with us.” Her reflective words continue, “I continue to trust and welcome life with an open heart, holding gratitude for all that is still to come.”
Bündchen and Valente welcomed their first child together earlier this year, adding to her family, which includes two children from her previous marriage to NFL superstar Tom Brady—son Benjamin, 15, and daughter Vivian, 12. While she has shared glimpses of her newborn on social media, she has yet to reveal the baby’s name or gender.
In a previous Mother’s Day post, Bündchen shared the first photo of her newborn, holding the baby while wearing an “I [Heart] Mom” onesie, further emphasizing her joy and pride in motherhood. “I’ve been quiet over here but very busy living life,” she wrote. “Sometimes, the most beautiful moments aren’t shared—they’re simply lived. Lately, I’ve been embracing the slower rhythms, the real connections, the beauty in the lessons that come with being present.”
Her words resonate with many fans who appreciate her openness about the challenges and joys of motherhood. As a public figure, Bündchen continues to inspire countless fans around the world, showcasing the beauty of family and the importance of cherishing each moment.
As she embarks on this new chapter of her life, Gisele Bündchen remains a beloved figure in the celebrity world, balancing her career and family life with grace and authenticity. Her recent birthday celebration serves as a reminder of the joy and love that comes with motherhood, and her fans eagerly await more updates from the supermodel as she navigates this exciting journey.
