### Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady Were Considering Expanding Their Family Before Split

Supermodel Gisele Bündchen and NFL legend Tom Brady contemplated adding another child to their family before parting ways in 2022, an insider exclusively revealed to Page Six. While the couple was open to the idea, they were not actively pursuing it. Bündchen, 44, and Brady, 47, already share two children together: son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11. Brady also has a 17-year-old son, Jack, from a previous relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan.

The former couple’s potential family expansion plans came to an abrupt halt when they filed for divorce in October 2022, ending their 13-year marriage. Following the split, Bündchen began dating her jiu-jitsu instructor, Joaquim Valente, in June 2023. Their relationship, kept private for months, became public when news broke in September that they were expecting their first child together.

The source disclosed that Bündchen is overjoyed about her pregnancy. “Gisele feels blessed to be having another baby and she's soaking up every moment of this pregnancy,” the insider shared. Bündchen, who hails from a large family, always envisioned having a sizable family of her own. "Gisele's sisters are her best friends. She’s particularly close to her twin, Pati, and is thrilled to provide her children with similar sibling bonds," the source added.

Despite the excitement of their upcoming addition, Bündchen and Valente do not have immediate plans to marry. They intend to live together for the time being, according to a different source. Representatives for Bündchen and Brady did not provide comments on the developing situation.

The Brazilian supermodel and the jiu-jitsu trainer were recently seen in public together for the first time since their pregnancy news became public. As they navigate this new chapter, the couple remains focused on their growing family while refraining from hastening into marriage.
