“Thank you all for the love and birthday wishes,” Bündchen captioned a July 22 Instagram post featuring a sweet snap of her youngest son reaching for her birthday balloons. “I feel so grateful for this new cycle that is beginning and for all the adventures that lie ahead.

“Thank you for leading by example,” Bündchen—who married the jiu-jitsu instructor in December 2025—captioned a June 21 Instagram post featuring family photos with Valente, “and for the values you embody, love, humility, integrity, discipline, kindness and consistency.”

“You are an incredible role model,” she added. “We are all so grateful for you, and we love you so much.”
