Gisele Bundchen is pregnant and expecting her first child with jiu-jitsu pro partner Joaquim Valente, People has confirmed.
The supermodel, 44, has been dating Valente, 35, since June 2023 shortly after her divorce from Tom Brady, and this will be her third child and his first.
A source close to the star said: 'Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life and they're looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family.'
DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for Gisele for comment.
The star was pictured on October 23 covering up her stomach in a baggy sweater. She appeared to have a slight bump and kept her handbag shielding her stomach.
The star is already mom to son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11 from her marriage to NFL GOAT Tom Brady.

Joaquim, who is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor, owns a jiujitsu studio with his brothers Pedro and Gui Valente in Miami.
They started dating in June 2023, after first meeting in December 2021 when she sought out jiu-jitsu training for her son and then decided to take classes too.
In early July, the lovebirds enjoyed a summer vacation to Costa Rica with her two children.
She told Dust Magazine: 'Initially, I wasn't even considering it for myself. But when I brought [her son Ben] to the first class and started talking to Joaquim, I realized that it was much more than self defense.'
Adding that the jiu-jitsu philosophy interested her the most: 'It felt very much in line with what I believe in and look for in my life, and how I have a path to develop and become the best version of myself.'
The duo sparked romance rumors when they were seen together in November 2022 in Costa Rica, two weeks after her divorce from Tom Brady was finalized.
Gisele denied they were romantically involved.
