Gisele Bündchen gave her 22.9 million Instagram followers a rare glimpse of her baby son on Wednesday. She shares the tot, who is around five months old, with her Jiu-Jitsu instructor–turned–boyfriend, Joaquim Valente

GISELE BÜNDCHEN'S BIGGEST SECRET: SHE'S A SUPERMODEL MOM OF THREE - AND NOW SHE'S SHARING HER LITTLEST PRINCE WITH THE WORLD!

Get ready for a sneak peek into Gisele Bündchen's ultra-private world, folks! The catwalk queen has just given her 22.9 million Instagram followers an unprecedented glimpse of her adorable five-month-old baby boy - and we can't get enough!

This little bundle of joy is the result of Gisele's whirlwind romance with Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente, whom she met while taking classes at his center in 2021. The supermodel shares this tiny tot with her new beau, who's a whopping 15 years younger than her!

Gisele's son joined her as she celebrated her 45th birthday with family members. Among them was her fraternal twin sister Patricia (L), who beamed while posing with Gisele as they held matching birthday cakes

But what makes this post even more special is that it's not just a cute photo op - Gisele has been opening up about her journey as a mother of three (yes, you read that right!) in recent interviews. And let me tell you, it's been a wild ride! From navigating the challenges of single parenthood to embracing her new life as a stepmom to Joaquim's 17-year-old son Jack, Gisele is showing us all what it means to be strong, resilient, and utterly fabulous.

So, without further ado, let's dive into this juicy article and get all the deets on Gisele's latest adventure!

GISELE'S BIG BIRTHDAY BASH

Their birthday celebrations took place in the midst of a gorgeous forest, and the supermodel shared another stunning photo in which she held her young son harnessed to her chest as she explored the wilderness while gazing at a picturesque waterfall in the distance

To celebrate her 45th birthday (yes, you read that right - she's still looking like a radiant supermodel at 45!), Gisele gathered her closest family members for an intimate celebration in Rio Grande do Sul. And what better way to mark the occasion than with a sweet photo of her little one snuggled up on her lap?

But wait, there's more! The supermodel also shared another stunning snap of herself exploring the wilderness with her baby boy harnessed to her chest - and let me tell you, that bond is absolutely heartwarming!

A SNEAK PEEK INTO GISELE'S FAMILY LIFE

While Gisele's son — whose middle name is reportedly 'River' — wasn't old enough to get his mother a present, he was still able to give her a sweet birthday card after getting a bit of help

As we all know, family is everything to Gisele. And it's no surprise she's been sharing snippets of her life with her two older kids from her previous marriage to Tom Brady - Benjamin (15) and Vivian (12). In fact, it looks like little Vivian might be following in her mom's footsteps as a budding supermodel!

And did you know that Gisele's family trip wasn't just a celebration of her birthday? It was also a special nod to her late mother Vânia Nonnenmacher, who passed away at the tender age of 75 back in January 2024. Talk about honoring her legacy!

JOAQUIM AND GISELE: A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN?

Another photo from Gisele's nature explorations showed her grasping the arm of a young girl, who appeared from behind to be Vivian. They stopped to admire a smaller waterfall tucked away in the trees

Now that we've got a glimpse into Gisele's family life, let's talk about her budding romance with Joaquim. Their whirlwind relationship has been making headlines ever since they were spotted together in Costa Rica back in November 2022 - just two weeks after Gisele's divorce from Tom Brady was finalized!

But don't worry, folks; it seems like these two are meant to be! In a recent interview with thescholarlynote.com, Gisele gushed about her new beau: "He's an incredible human being... He's got such a kind heart and is so genuine. And I'm just grateful that we found each other."

A SUPERMODEL'S TAKE ON MOTHERHOOD

Gisele revealed that her boyfriend Joaquim had joined her for the family trip. He stood next to her and held their son, whose face was again covered up with a white heart, as they posed for a large family photo at an outdoor dining table on a wooden deck

As we all know, becoming a mother again at 45 (yes, you read that right!) can't be easy - especially when you're already juggling two older kids from your previous marriage! But Gisele's got it down to a science. In fact, she recently revealed to thescholarlynote.com that her life has been settling back into routine after welcoming her little one in February: "Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I'm back in control of my routine... As any new mom knows, it's incredible how much sleep — or lack of it — can change everything! But once again, I feel truly grateful: being able to be home with my kids and enjoy every moment with them is priceless."

GISELE'S PATH TO SELF-EMPOWERMENT

And that's not all, folks! As we celebrate Gisele's 45th birthday, let's take a moment to acknowledge her incredible journey of self-discovery. From retiring from the runway back in 2016 to embracing her new role as a single mother and stepmom - this supermodel is living proof that you're never too old to start anew!

So here's to Gisele Bündchen - a true supermodel mom, inside and out!

She and her ex Tom Brady also shared 15-year-old son Benjamin (bottom) and 12-year-old daughter Vivian (R). She was also the stepmom to his 17-year-old son Jack (L), whom she shares with his former partner Bridget Moynahan
