"Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter and looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the family."
The surf world was alit, last summer, and not because World Surf League Finals Day was going to be held at Lower Trestles. No, the frenzy came from Tom Brady and Giselle Bundchen announcing the end to their seemingly perfect union. Brady, winningest quarterback of all-time, and Bundchen, a very famous Brazilian supermodel, called it quits after multiple years and whilst the surf world tried to mourn the demise, hope began bubbling that Bundchen and her former BF Kelly Slater might relight their flame.
Yes, the winningest surfer of all-time and Bundchen were a couple during the aughts and a fine couple indeed. Alas, their reunion was not to be. Slater and his longtime girlfriend had a baby boy and Bundchen just announced she and her partner, Brazilian jiu-jitsuist Joaquim Valente, are expecting a bundle of their own and soon.
TMZ is reporting that Bundchen is “five or six months pregnant.” It will be her third child as she has two with Brady.
A source close to the couple told People Magazine, “Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life and they’re looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family.”
Very nice and whilst surf fans may have dreamed of a love match, might we be satisfied enough for a playdate? It could be hoped that Slater’s son will have a name by the time Bundchen’s child is of taking-to-the-park age and imagine how cute it would be?
Do you have any candles left over?
Light please?
