Tom Brady Posts Telling Instagram Story on Day of Gisele Bündchen Pregnancy News
Model Gisele Bündchen and NFL star Tom Brady were a power couple. However, after 13 years, they could no longer make their marriage work. They divorced in 2022, with Bündchen moving on with Joaquim Valente a month after she and Brady finalized their split. Now, sources say Bündchen is pregnant — and Brady’s Instagram story post may be directly related to the news.
Tom Brady’s Instagram Stories post might be related to Gisele Bündchen’s pregnancy news
Gisele Bündchen and her Jiu-Jitsu instructor boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, are allegedly expecting their first child together.
“Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life, and they’re looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family,” a source close to Bündchen told People on Oct. 28, 2024.
Bündchen already has two children with her famous ex-husband, Tom Brady: Benjamin, 14, and Vivian, 11. The model has been officially dating Valente since June 2023. But they were first spotted together outside of Jiu-Jitsu class in November 2022. While Bündchen initially denied a romance between her and the athlete, sources close to her later confirmed the relationship.
Bündchen reportedly told Brady of the baby news before the source told People. She’s allegedly already five to six months along. The same day the pregnancy news hit the media, Brady posted a telling Instagram story. He added a sunset photo with The Chicks’ cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide” playing.
“Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?” the lyrics read on his post. “Can the child within my heart rise above? Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?”
Brady hasn’t directly publicly posted about Bündchen’s pregnancy. But given the timing of his post, the song and lyrics might cryptically reference her moving on.
The model was open to finding love after divorce
After divorcing Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen clarified that she wanted to put her children first. However, she was never opposed to finding love again.
“You know, I think right now, really, my priority is my kids and creating this beautiful sanctuary for our family. And then, yes, why not, right?” Bündchen told Robin Roberts on Good Morning America, according to Entertainment Tonight. “I think life is full of surprises. I don’t have a crystal ball about what’s going to happen tomorrow but, yeah.”
In February 2024, a source told Entertainment Tonight that Bündchen and Joaquim Valente had a “solid foundation” before pursuing a romance.
“Gisele trusts Joaquim because they had a solid foundation before things turned romantic,” the source claimed. “He has been there for her as she transitions through this new phase of life post-divorce, and it’s been a really nice change for her.” The source added that the couple connects “on a deep level” and shares many interests, including wellness and travel.
Gisele Bündchen talked about co-parenting difficulties with Tom Brady
Co-parenting hasn’t necessarily been easy for Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady post-divorce. “I think there are easier days than others, but I think it’s amazing that the kids … they’re super smart children,” Bündchen told People. “They know what they can get away with.”
The model added that her kids have learned to “adapt” to the different rules of each house. “And they’re going to try to do what they want,” she continued. “And I can only control what I do, and I think for me, now is really about the balance.”
She noted that co-parenting offers their two kids more “enrichment” in their lives. “Two different worlds, and they get to learn from two different worlds, and that’s wonderful for them, I think,” Bündchen added. They’re so big.”
