AceShowbiz - Gisele Bundchen isn't rushing to the altar with her boyfriend Joaquim Valente while preparing for a new chapter in their relationship. The pregnant model reportedly has no plans to marry the jiu-jitsu instructor "anytime soon" despite currently expecting their first child together.
Friends of the 44-year-old beauty think the pair will just "live together for now." As to why marriage between the expecting couple is not on the table at this point, a source tells Page Six, "There is a huge difference between them net-worth wise. There is no point in tempting fate as far as Giselle is concerned."
While Joaquim owns a gym and runs a martial arts studio with his brothers, his net worth is pale in comparison to that of Gisele. The supermodel's net worth is estimated at $400 million in 2024, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Gisele and Joaquim were first rumored to be romantically linked to each other in November 2022 following her divorce from Tom Brady. After initially denying the dating rumors, she confirmed their relationship in March of this year.
"This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first," she told the New York Times at the time. "It's very different. It is very honest, and it's very transparent." She, however, denied she was cheating on Tom with Joaquim.
On Monday, October 28, PEOPLE reported that Gisele is pregnant with Joaquim's child. "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," a source told the site.
The model reportedly decided to keep the baby's sex a surprise until birth and plans to welcome the baby at home. "She's excited about the baby and feels good," the source shared. "She's planning a home birth." Insiders disclosed that she is five to six months along, with the baby expected to arrive at the start of 2025.
As to how her children, Benjamin, 14, and Vivian, 11, whom she shares with her ex Tom, react to her pregnancy, a source told Us Weekly that the kids "really like" Joaquim. The insider claimed that the jiu-jitsu instructor has been "living at [Gisele's] house in Miami for while."
The former Victoria's Secret Angel is reportedly "head over heels" with her partner - and her "friends haven't seen her like this before." The source gushed, "Their chemistry together has always been there and they have a lot in common. They've been in love for a while."
