Gisele Bundchen is back on Instagram, and she brought the kids. A rare glimpse into her private life just dropped via a series of vacation photos. The setting? Tahiti, French Polynesia. It’s the kind of trip most people only dream about.
Family updates from Gisele Bundchen and Joaquim Valente’s new baby
The photos are a chaotic, sweet mix of family energy. There is a lot of swimming and dancing. Their one-year-old son is finally getting some screen time, showing off bright blonde hair. He spent the trip watching manta rays with his father, Joaquim Valente, and lounging on the sand with Gisele.
The supermodel opted for a white bikini, but the real highlight was a photo of her son cuddling with her daughter, Vivian. The resemblance is striking.
“What a special place!”
That was the caption. Short. Sweet. Simple. ☀️
How did Gisele Bundchen’s family structure change?
It is a lot to keep track of if you aren’t a superfan. Gisele shares two children, Benjamin (born Dec 2009) and Vivian (born Dec 2012), with her ex-husband Tom Brady. She also acted as a stepmother to Jack, Brady’s son with Bridget Moynahan.
Then things shifted.
Gisele and Joaquim Valente reportedly started dating in June 2013, though they had been “platonic friends” since 2021. They didn’t waste time. A baby announcement followed, and by February 2025, the couple welcomed a son.
Why is the new baby’s name River?
If you noticed a pattern with Gisele’s kids, you aren’t imagining it. Her son with Valente has the middle name River. It is a specific choice. This follows the water-themed naming tradition she started with Tom Brady for their older children.
Gisele and Joaquim officially tied the knot in December 2025. Now they are just living it up in French Polynesia, letting the toddlers run wild. 🏝️
