She and Valente announced they were expecting their first child together in October 2024, with outlets reporting their son was born in February 2025.
Following the birth of their son, Bundchen and Valente tied the knot during a private ceremony in Surfside, Florida in December 2025.
Just last month, the model shared a series of photos of Valente spending time with all three of her children, in honor of Father's Day, calling him "an incredible role model" in the caption.
"Happy Father’s Day @joaquimvalente !Thank you for leading by example, and for the values you embody, love, humility, integrity, discipline, kindness and consistency," she wrote. "You are an incredible role model. We are all so grateful for you, and we love you so much."
