Gisele Bündchen has given a rare look into her life as she enjoys a family getaway in Tahiti. The supermodel, 45, shared pictures of her one-year-old baby boy, along with her husband, Joaquim Valente, and her other children: Benjamin Rein, 16, and Vivian Lake, 13, whom she shares with ex Tom Brady.
When the supermodel just wants to be a mum
On Saturday, 18 July, Bündchen shared pictures of her tropical family getaway in Tahiti, an island in French Polynesia. As the Instagram carousel dropped, there she was, in the water, holding her toddler’s hand like any parent would on a beach day. No editorial lighting. No styled backdrop. Just a mother and her youngest in the Pacific, both of them looking on with pure joy. This small moment says everything about where she is now.

In the first picture, Bündchen is seen enjoying the ocean alongside her youngest son, 17 months old, whose name has not been publicly shared. The model is seen wearing a matching white bikini, facing the ocean and holding the toddler’s hand. The second is a picture of her older children, teenagers, looking at the ocean from a cliff. One of the photos shows Benjamin holding the toddler as they enjoy a boat ride. Vivian can also be seen having a great time with the toddler.“Nothing in this world fills my life with more meaning and joy than being a mum. I’m so grateful to experience life with them, learning and growing together every day,” the model said during Mother’s Day earlier this year.

Meanwhile, the family moved through activities together during the vacation, and she documented it the way millions of parents do: snapshots, not statements. In one of the pictures, she is also seen dancing with her husband, Valente, seemingly lost in the moment as a Tahitian band plays the drums. They also got up close and personal with some sea creatures. In one of the pictures, Valente can be seen holding his son above the water as a stingray swam by.
Sharing the photo on Instagram, Bündchen captioned, “What a special place! Que lugar especial!”Gisele Bündchen married Joaquim Valente, 38, a Miami-based jiu-jitsu instructor, in December 2025. The couple has been dating since June 2023. Last month, during Father’s Day, she penned a heartwarming note on how he has been an incredible father to their children. “Thank you for leading by example, and for the values you embody: love, humility, integrity, discipline, kindness and consistency. You are an incredible role model. We are all so grateful for you, and we love you so much,” she said.Bündchen was previously married to NFL quarterback Tom Brady. In 2022, the couple divorced, ending their 13-year marriage. “With much gratitude for our time together, Tom and I have amicably finalised our divorce. My priority has always been and will continue to be our children, whom I love with all my heart. We will continue co-parenting to give them the love, care and attention they greatly deserve,” she wrote in a statement. The exes agreed to joint custody of their children.
