Word on the street is that Tom Brady got a little heads-up before the rest of us on his ex-wife’s baby news—still, that couldn’t have been an easy pill to swallow. Monday night, People magazine dropped the bombshell that Gisele Bündchen is expecting a little one with her boyfriend, jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente. And, get this, they’re over the moon!
“Gisele and Joaquim are thrilled for this new chapter in their lives,” a source close to the Brazilian lovebirds dished. “They’re already planning to create a calm, loving vibe for the whole family.” This bundle of joy will make baby number three for Bündchen, who already co-parents son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11, with Brady. The former power couple, who officially split in 2022, are practically neighbors in Miami Beach, making that coparenting thing a little smoother.
But just hours after the news broke, Brady, 47, posted something on his Instagram that’s got everyone talking—a moody sunset photo, soundtracked by The Chicks’ cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide.” He even layered on some soul-searching lyrics: “Oh mirror in the sky, what is love? Can the child inside my heart rise above? Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?” Come on, Tom, we see what you’re doing! While we can’t say for sure if this cryptic post is a nod to Gisele’s latest life chapter, it sure has that vibe, if you catch our drift.
Gisele, who lost her mom earlier this year, seems to be in high spirits, according to the insider, as she’s thrilled about the new addition. Apparently, she’s several months along, feeling fabulous, and even planning a home birth! Plus, life in Miami is treating her well—“Everyone’s thriving,” says the source, “Gisele’s genuinely happy, and Joaquim has been a blessing.” Seems like she’s got her happily-ever-after underway, while Tom’s left, well… reflecting.
