Gisele Bündchen has so much love for her husband, Joaquim Valente, on Father’s Day 2026.
“Happy Father’s Day @joaquimvalente! Thank you for leading by example, and for the values you embody, love, humility, integrity, discipline, kindness and consistency,” Bündchen, 45, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, June 21, alongside rare family photos of the couple and their infant son. “You are an incredible role model. We are all so grateful for you, and we love you so much.”
Bündchen and Valente, 38, welcomed their first baby together in February 2025. (The supermodel also shares son Benjamin, 16, and daughter Vivian, 13, with her ex-husband, Tom Brady.)
In Bündchen’s Sunday roundup, she also uploaded photos of Valente cuddling his son and two stepchildren.
“And dad, thank you for your unconditional love, wisdom and support through every stage of my life,” she concluded her post, referring to her own father. “Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there. ❤️.”
Bündchen married Valente in December 2025 after nearly three years together. They started dating one year after Bündchen’s 2022 divorce from Brady, 48.
“This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first,” she recalled to The New York Times in 2024 of her then-newfound relationship with the jiu-jitsu instructor. “It’s very different. It is very honest, and it’s very transparent.”
At the time, Bündchen firmly denied any overlap between her relationships.
“That is a lie. This is something that happens to a lot of women who get blamed when they have the courage to leave an unhealthy relationship and are labeled as being unfaithful,” she stated, referring to then-rampant affair speculation. “They have to deal with their communities. They have to deal with their family. Of course for me, it just happens to be a little bit amplified.”
Bündchen and Brady, meanwhile, now coparent Benjamin and Vivian. (Brady is also the father of son Jack, 18, whom he shares with ex Bridget Moynahan.)
“Tom and Gisele only communicate when it comes to the kids,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in March. “The dust has settled, but he tries not to meddle in her personal life. He hears things from the kids here and there, but tries to stay neutral. They have a good coparenting schedule.”
As for Brady, he rang in Father’s Day by thinking of his own dad.
“Happy Father’s Day to my hero,” the retired NFL quarterback wrote via his Instagram Stories on Sunday. “The best example I could have ever asked for. We love you, Dad. Don’t worry, I’ll let you win a few [golf] holes this week. 😉.”
