Gisele celebrates 46th birthday in a leopard bikini
Gisele Bündchen’s birthday suit came with spots.
The supermodel posted a birthday carousel to Instagram on Wednesday, reclining barefoot on a wooden deck chair in a leopard-print bikini with a fistful of pink and cream balloons.
She turned 46 on Monday.
“Thank you all for the love and birthday wishes. I feel so grateful for this new cycle that is beginning and for all the adventures that lie ahead,” Bündchen wrote. “May the love and kindness you share return to each of you a thousandfold.”
She opened the set with a photo of her face in profile with her chin raised to the sun, and showed off a heart-shaped cake topped with a pile of walnuts — no icing in sight.
That shot also came with a small cameo — the arm of her toddler son, whom she shares with husband Joaquim Valente.
Heidi Klum dropped a goat emoji and “Happy Birthday G❤️” in the comments, while Victoria’s Secret, the label that made Bündchen a household name in the early 2000s, added, “Happy birthday gorgeous 💖.”
The model and Valente, a jiu-jitsu instructor, married in an intimate ceremony at home in November 2025, Page Six exclusively reported. Their son, whose first name they have yet to share, arrived in February 2025.
Bündchen also shares Benjamin, 16, and Vivian, 13, with ex-husband Tom Brady, who filed for divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage.
Brady spent her birthday posting, too: his FIFA World Cup album, in which Vivian looked like her mother’s double, went up Monday.
Bündchen has offered several glimpses into her cozy family life in 2026, from January’s rare family photo dump to a Father’s Day tribute to Valente that left Brady unmentioned.
She also returned to the cover of W magazine in June, her first for the title in 19 years.
