Gisele Bündchen, the former wife of NFL legend Tom Brady, is back in the spotlight for a beautiful message on Mother’s Day 2025.
The Brazilian supermodel, who’s been living life on her terms post-divorce with the NFL legend, posted a heartfelt note for her three children and her own mother, who shaped her life.
Brady’s Ex-Wife Gisele Bündchen Shares Heartfelt Note On Mother’s Day
Since her high-profile split from Brady in 2022, Bündchen has embraced a more grounded, intentional lifestyle. She has also started featuring in major modeling campaigns and uses her platform to promote wellness and environmental awareness.
“I’ve been quiet over here but very busy living life,” she wrote in her Mother’s Day post. “Sometimes, the most beautiful moments aren’t shared — they’re simply lived. Lately, I’ve been embracing the slower rhythms, the real connections, the beauty in the lessons that come with being present.”
Bündchen noted that she missed her mother dearly on the occasion before terming motherhood as the greatest gift in the world.
“Today, on Mother’s Day, I specially miss my mom, but my heart is full. Being a mother it’s been my greatest gift, a journey that humbles me, teaches me, and fills me with gratitude every single day. To all the mothers out there, your love shapes the world in ways words can’t describe. I see you, I honor you. Happy mother’s day! Sending so much love your way! ❤️,” she concluded.

Bündchen is the mother of Brady’s two elder children, son Benjamin, 15, and daughter Vivian, 12. The pair started dating in 2006 before tying the knot three years later. They finalized their divorce in 2022, and Bündchen welcomed her third child with Joaquim Valente, a jiu-jitsu instructor and her longtime friend-turned-partner, in February 2025.
While reports surfaced that Brady was initially “upset” about the pregnancy news, sources close to Bündchen claimed she held no hard feelings toward him. Instead, she’s focused on maintaining an agreeable co-parenting relationship while embracing this new chapter with Joaquim Valente.
The couple has reportedly been dating since June 2023, and their relationship seems to be growing stronger by the day. Valente is also a Brazilian native and manages the Valente Brothers jiu-jitsu studio in Miami alongside his siblings. Though he keeps a low public profile, he has become a steady presence in her life.
This new addition marks a beautiful chapter for Bündchen, balancing motherhood, a thriving modeling career, and a healthy relationship. She continues to show the world that she’s not just moving on post-divorce — she’s thriving.
