LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady, who ended their 13-year marriage in 2022, had once considered expanding their family, a source has now revealed. This revelation comes just days after news broke that Bundchen is expecting a baby with her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente.

Following the announcement of Bundchen's pregnancy, Tom Brady posted two cryptic messages on his Instagram, hinting at personal struggles.

In one post he reflected on "falling short", while in the other he seemed to express his feelings of the moment.

Meanwhile, Bundchen was spotted in Miami, proudly showing off her baby bump during a Pilates session, marking a new chapter in her life.

An insider revealed details about Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady's plans to expand their family before they decided to part ways.

"Gisele and Tom were open to having another child during their marriage," said the source. However, they added, "It wasn’t something they were actively trying to do." 

The couple, who share two children—son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11—also co-parent Brady’s 17-year-old son, Jack, from his previous relationship with Bridget Moynahan.

Their family plans were ultimately disrupted when they filed for divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage. Since then, Bundchen has been dating her jiu-jitsu instructor, Joaquim Valente, after first meeting him in December 2021.

Gisele Bundchen and Joaquim Valente, who have kept their relationship largely private, are now making headlines with the news that they’re expecting their first child together. 

A source told Page Six, "Gisele feels blessed to be having another baby and she’s soaking up every moment of this pregnancy." 

The source also spoke about Gisele’s long-standing dream of having a large family, saying, "Gisele has always known she’s wanted to have a large family. She comes from a big family herself and it’s something that she wants for her own children."

The insider added that Gisele’s close bond with her sisters, particularly her twin sister Pati, is a major influence on her family values.

"Gisele’s sisters are her best friends and she’s really close to all of them, especially her twin sister, Pati. So she’s happy to be able to give that to her own children."

As for their relationship and future plans, the source clarified that Gisele and Joaquim are not in a rush to marry. They are not forcing marriage "anytime soon" and are just focusing on living together and enjoying this new chapter in their lives, added the source.
