Gisele Bündchen’s birthday was a family affair.
Indeed, the Brazilian supermodel had a lowkey celebration for her 46th birthday with her and husband Joaquim Valente’s 16-month-old son.
“Thank you all for the love and birthday wishes,” Bündchen captioned a July 22 Instagram post. “I feel so grateful for this new cycle that is beginning and for all the adventures that lie ahead. May the love and kindness you share return to each of you a thousandfold.”
The former Victoria’s Secret angel’s post included photos of her heart-shaped cake and birthday balloons, showing a peek at her baby boy’s hand and toys.
Bündchen—who also shares kids Benjamin, 16, and Vivian, 13, with ex-husband Tom Brady—has had an eventful month. Ahead of her latest trip around the sun, she took a vacation to Tahiti with her husband and kids, showing off the tropical scenery and daring activities they enjoyed.
“What a special place!” Bündchen captioned her July 18 Instagram documenting the trip. “Que lugar especial!”

The Devil Wears Prada alum sported a white bikini and sun hat in one photo, coordinating with her toddler who wore cream trunks. In another, the tot was seen enjoying a boat ride with his older brother, with both boys looking out at the blue water.
That’s not the only sibling moment that the model shared, as Bündchen captured a sweet pic of Benjamin and Vivian enjoying the view of the island’s mountains.
And while Bündchen usually likes to keep her family life private, she is not shy about publicly praising her husband’s parenting skills. In fact, she celebrated Valente—whom she married in December 2025—as an “incredible role model” for her kids this past Father’s Day, posting sweet snaps of him with each of her children.
“Happy Father’s Day @joaquimvalente!” she captioned a June 21 Instagram. “Thank you for leading by example, and for the values you embody, love, humility, integrity, discipline, kindness and consistency.”
