The Brazilian model celebrated her special day with her loved ones at home. She shared photos from the intimate festivities alongside a heartfelt, reflective message.
Gisele Bündchen is celebrating yet another trip around the sun. The activist turned 45 on Sunday, July 20, 2025. She flew back home to Rio Grande do Sul for the occasion, where she spent some quality time with her family.
On Thursday, July 24, she shared an Instagram carousel documenting the highlights from her visit. Additionally, the images gave fans a glimpse of her youngest child — whom she welcomed with her partner Joaquim Valente — and just how much the little one has grown.

One picture showed her soaking in the sun outside with the little one — whose middle name is reportedly River — while sitting beside a male elderly relative. Another captured her gazing at a gorgeous waterfall with her baby baby snugly tucked into a cream-colored carrier.

A third photo featured a birthday card with the words, "Feliz Anivesario, mamãe," which is Portuguese for “Happy birthday, mama.” The sign-off is an adorable footprint painting of the toddler's foot.

"Haven't been around here much, but I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all the warm birthday wishes," Bündchen, who also shares daughter Vivian and son Benjamin with ex-husband Tom Brady, began.
"I'm so grateful for another trip around the sun and even more grateful to have spent it in nature, surrounded by love and my family," she continued. "Today is also my mom's birthday. We miss her deeply, but we know she's always with us."
Bündchen added that she continues to "trust and welcome life with an open heart," and expressed deep gratitude for everything that is still to come. "Sending love to everyone. ❤️," she concluded, and followed with a Portuguese translation of her message.
