Gisele Bündchen marked her 46th birthday on July 20 with a masterclass in backyard relaxation. The Brazilian supermodel gave followers an intimate look at her sun-soaked celebration via Instagram.
Leopard Prints and Walnut Cake
The slideshow featured Bündchen lounging on a steamer chair, dressed in a striking leopard-print bikini. She also shared images of her birthday treats, highlighting a heart-shaped cake topped with walnuts and an array of pink-and-white balloons.
“Thank you all for the love and birthday wishes,” she wrote in the caption. “I feel so grateful for this new cycle that is beginning and for all the adventures that lie ahead.”
She concluded the message by wishing her followers well. “May the love and kindness you share return to each of you a thousandfold. ❤️✨,” she added.
A Subtle Nod to Motherhood
Amid the birthday festivities, Bündchen slipped in a subtle update on her growing family. The post included a rare, partial look at her third child, a baby boy she welcomed with husband Joaquim Valente back in February 2025.
While the couple has kept his name private, the young toddler made a brief cameo in the photo carousel. One slide captured his tiny hand reaching up for his mother’s birthday balloons.
A subsequent photo showed one of the baby’s toys resting quietly in the grass.
Building a Life in Surfside
Bündchen and Valente’s romance began in 2023. The pair initially connected after she began taking classes at the jiu-jitsu academy he operates alongside his brothers.
Following the birth of their son early in 2025, the couple officially tied the knot in December of that same year. They exchanged vows during an intimate backyard ceremony at their home in Surfside, Florida.
