Gisele Bündchen gave a rare look at how her 8-month-old son is bonding with his older siblings.
“There’s only one thing more precious than our time… It’s who we choose to spend it with,” the 45-year-old supermodel captioned an Instagram slideshow on Sunday, October 12, alongside snapshots of special moments with her family.
One photo showed Bündchen posing in front of a mirror with a dog during a workout. In another pic, Bündchen’s son Benjamin, 15, played piano with his baby brother on his lap. A third slide featured a sweet moment between Bündchen and daughter Vivian, 12.
Bündchen shares her older kids with ex-husband Tom Brady, to whom she was married for 13 years from 2009 to 2022. Following her divorce, Bündchen moved on with Joaquim Valente. News broke last fall that the couple were expecting their first baby together.
Gisele Bundchen Shares Rare Insight Into Life With Newborn Son
“When Gisele told the kids about her pregnancy, she made sure to let Tom know as well,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly at the time. “This happened a few months ago. She wanted to give him that courtesy and knew the kids would tell him either way.”
According to the insider, Brady, 48, was “shocked” by his ex-wife’s pregnancy but was “ultimately happy” for her. “It was hard to digest at first,” the source added. “He knows Gisele is a great mom and was destined to be a mom.”
While Bündchen expanded her family, Brady’s main priority was Benjamin and Vivian. (The retired NFL quarterback also shares son Jack, 18, with ex Bridget Moynahan.)
“Tom has moved on and is in the mindset of keeping the peace for the kids,” the insider told Us. “He wants everyone to be happy and healthy.”
A second source emphasized that Brady knew about the pregnancy well before the news went public, adding, “Tom lets Gisele live her own life and isn’t involved in her personal decisions anymore — he lets her live her life.”

Bündchen gave birth in February. While the baby boy’s first name has not been revealed, People reported that his middle name is River.
In May, Bündchen shared a glimpse of her postpartum life at home. “Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I’m back in control of my routine,” she said in an interview for Vogue France. “As any new mom knows, it’s incredible how much sleep — or lack of it — can change everything! But once again, I feel truly grateful: being able to be home with my kids and enjoy every moment with them is priceless.”
When asked to describe how she would spend an ideal day, the Brazil native replied, “Being with my family, especially when we can do outdoor activities together. Spending time with them is what makes me happiest.”
Since her son’s arrival, Bündchen has posted a few rare photos of her baby boy. In August, she posted a makeup-free selfie with the infant while recapping her summer. Another photo showed her rocking a bright orange bathing suit while riding in a golf cart.
“Thank you, summer, you’ve been so good to us! 💛 Obrigada, verão, você foi tão bom conosco,” she wrote in the caption.
