Gisele Bündchen is a prominent supermodel, celebrated for her appearances on major fashion magazine covers and runways. Her career took off in 1998 when she debuted in an Alexander McQueen show. Bündchen was married to NFL legend Tom Brady until their divorce in October 2022. They have two children, Benjamin Rein and Vivian Lake Brady, and she is stepmother to John’s son, John “Jack” Edward Thomas Moynahan.
Born on July 20, 1980, in Horizontina, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, Bündchen is one of six daughters, including her twin sister Patricia. Her modeling career began when a scout discovered her at a mall at age 14. Two years later, she moved to New York, initially struggling to find work but eventually securing roles with top fashion brands.
Bündchen became a major figure in fashion, gracing the covers of Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Elle, W, and Harper’s Bazaar. She was also known for her role as a Victoria’s Secret Angel.
In 2006, mutual friends introduced Bündchen to Brady on a blind date. They began dating soon after. In February 2007, Brady’s ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan announced she was expecting Brady’s child. John “Jack” Edward Thomas Moynahan was born on August 22, 2007. Bündchen and Brady got engaged in January 2009 and married the following month. They welcomed their first son, Benjamin Rein, on December 8, 2009. Their daughter, Vivian Lake, was born on December 5, 2012.
Brady’s career saw significant changes as well. In March 2020, he left the New England Patriots for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He announced his retirement in February 2022 but later reversed this decision.
By September 2022, rumors of marital issues surfaced, suggesting the couple was living apart. Soon after, reports emerged that both had hired divorce attorneys. In October 2022, Bündchen and Brady publicly announced their divorce via Instagram, ending their 13-year marriage.
