Gisele Bündchen doesn’t post much on Instagram these days, and has told fans it’s because she is enjoying time with her new son, who she shares with boyfriend Joaquim Valente, and taking in every moment.
The Brazilian supermodel, 45, has still shared some sweet family moments with fans this year, including a sneak peek at her newborn, and photos with the two children she shares with ex-husband Tom Brady, 48 – 15-year-old son Benjamin and 12-year-old daughter Vivian.

Gisele Bündchen Has Always Had A Strong Relationship With Stepson Jack: 'I Love Him So Very Much'
The former Victoria's Secret Angel is also stepmother to John Edward Thomas Moynahan, who goes by Jack, who the former New England Patriots quarterback shares with actress Bridget Moynahan.
She has always spoken highly of Jack, consistently referring to him as her "bonus child." In a 2024 interview with Robin Roberts about her bond with Jack, Gisele said: "I love him so very much." She added at the time: "I got to experience how it is to feel, to be a mom before I was even a mom. To be a bonus mom. So I got to experience how my heart could feel that love and just expand in ways I never thought were possible."
This was evident last year when she shared a heartfelt Instagram post for his 17th birthday, calling him a "beautiful, kind, and incredible young man." One year later, however, the Nourish cookbook author hasn't acknowledged her stepson's milestone 18th birthday on social media — something eagle-eyed fans have not overlooked.
Internet Reactions
"Gisele not only erased Jack, her so-called bonus child, I guess when it benefits her she also erased every picture [that] included her ex and their kids," wrote one person. They went on: "So the only photos Gisele acknowledges are her with her kids, wow… but not surprising, she has shown her complete selfishness." They added: "Women will destroy their family for their own happiness... truly sad, they all primarily live with Brady the kids always know who the better parent is."
Another fan commented: "Nothing to learn here. Just because someone is famous, wealthy, or successful in a particular field does not mean they are a better person. Many famous people have messy and wasted lives."
