Yesterday, news broke that supermodel Gisele Bündchen had given birth to her third baby, her first with her partner Joaquim Valente. At the time, no details were revealed about the couple’s baby. Today, a source close to the couple shared details about the newborn.
A source shared exclusive details with PEOPLE about the Victoria’s Secret model’s third baby. The couple reportedly welcomed a baby boy. While the baby’s first name wasn’t shared, the source revealed that the couple opted for a nature baby name. The little one’s middle name, however, was revealed to be River. This name choice follows a naming pattern for the model’s other two children.
The supermodel shares two children with her ex-husband Tom Brady, a retired NFL player. The couple have a son named Benjamin, 15, and a daughter named Vivian, 12. Both children have water-inspired middle names: Rein and Lake, respectively. If she follows a similar naming pattern for her third baby’s first name as she did with her first two children, the little one may have a more traditional moniker.
Gisele and the jiu-jitsu instuctor announced in October that they were expecting their first baby together. The couple have been friends for a while and even became the victim of dating rumors in November 2022, just one month after the model’s divorce from the former NFL player was finalized. They didn’t make their relationship public until February 2024 and revealed they had been dating since June 2023.
Congratulations again to Gisele and Joaquim on the birth of their first baby together! We look forward to learning more about their baby boy should they choose to share.
