The pair weren’t “actively trying” but they were receptive to the idea of expanding their family.
Bündchen and Brady already share son Benjamin and daughter Vivian.
The supermodel, 44, and Super Bowl champion, 47, already share son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11. They also co-parented Brady’s son with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan, Jack, 17.
But their potential plans came to an end when they filed for — and finalized — divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage.
Bündchen moved on with her jiu-jitsu instructor, Joaquim Valente, a few months later as the two began dating in June 2023.
And although the two have kept their relationship tightly under wraps, news broke last month that Bündchen and Valente, 37, were expecting their first child together.
“Gisele feels blessed to be having another baby and she’s soaking up every moment of this pregnancy,” the source tells us.
“Gisele has always known she’s wanted to have a large family. She comes from a big family herself and it’s something that she wants for her own children,” the source continued.
“Gisele’s sisters are her best friends and she’s really close to all of them, especially her twin sister, Pati. So she’s happy to be able to give that to her own children.”
