Gisele Bündchen Praises “Incredible” Joaquim Valente for Father's Day

Gisele Bündchen Shares Rare Photo of All 3 Kids Together

Gisele Bündchen is celebrating Joaquim Valente.

The supermodel—who shares kids Benjamin, 16, and Vivian, 13, with ex Tom Brady as well as a 16-month-old son with Valente—honored her husband in a sweet Father’s Day tribute, noticeably leaving off any mention of the retired NFL star.

“Happy Father’s Day @joaquimvalente!” Bündchen captioned a June 21 Instagram post featuring family photos with Valente. “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,” she added. “We are all so grateful for you, and we love you so much.”

In one photo from the post, Bündchen and Valente—who tied the knot in December 2025—embraced their little one while posing on the beach in front of a rainbow. Meanwhile, in another pic, the runway star’s eldest son showed off how tall he’s getting as he stood back-to-back with Valente.

Though Bündchen made no mention of Brady, she went on to show her own father Valdir Bündchen some love.

“And dad, thank you for your unconditional love, wisdom, and support through every stage of my life,” she added. “Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there.”

Bündchen’s tribute comes one month after Brady gave her and ex Bridget Moynahan—with whom he also shares 18-year-old son Jack—sweet Mother’s Day tributes.

Indeed, the seven-time Super Bowl champ shared a picture of Bündchen and Moynahan posing with Jack, followed by a solo shot of the Victoria's Secret alum with all three of his children.

As he wrote on Instagram Stories May 10, “Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mothers in this world…”

Since welcoming her third baby, Bündchen—who finalized her divorce from Brady in 2022—has been open about how her new chapter of motherhood has impacted her life for the better.

"This year brought deep lessons and profound growth," she wrote on Instagram last December alongside several photos of her pregnancy journey. "Becoming a mother again reshaped everything—my time, my priorities, my heart."

“I’m grateful for these sacred moments,” she added, "that changed me in ways words can’t fully hold.”
