Gisele Bundchen is embracing the new mom life one step at a time
Gisele Bundchen and her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, recently welcomed their first child. The supermodel officially started dating Valente in June 2023 and announced their pregnancy in October 2024. In February, PEOPLE reported that Bundchen had a baby boy, and his middle name was River. The outlet exclusively dropped news on Bundchen’s well-being and whereabouts on March 12, quoting an insider who told the platform she was “doing well.”
While the mother of three opened up about the challenges of raising and co-parenting in an interview with Robin Roberts for ABC News, she is taking one step at a time in the new journey. She took her sweet time to focus on resting and fostering a deep attachment with the infant in the first month after delivery. Come March, PEOPLE reported she was gradually returning to her old routine. As such, the runway icon was balancing motherhood with self-care routines. Moreover, the publishing house noted she ensured she spent quality time with Benjamin and Vivian — the two kids she shares with Tom Brady.
As per the source, the former Victoria’s Secret Angel “tears up when she sees all the kids together.” Furthermore, Bundchen still can’t wrap her mind around the fact that “she has a newborn” and “feels very blessed.” The devoted mom has been pacing slowly, embracing every moment with quiet gratitude. With Valente and her elder kids by her side to help with baby no. 3, Gisele Bundchen has surrounded herself with love and support, offering a peaceful and quiet transition into the new chapter.
