Gisele Bündchen rang in her 46th birthday by embracing her signature effortless glamour and natural confidence, as reported by Page Six.

The supermodel shared a series of sun-drenched photos on Instagram on Wednesday, posing barefoot on a wooden deck chair in a leopard-print bikini while holding a cluster of pink and cream balloons.

“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 in the caption.

“May the love and kindness you share return to each of you a thousandfold.”

In the first image, Bündchen appeared serene with her face turned toward the sunlight, setting a calm and celebratory tone for the photo set.

She also included a shot of her birthday cake — a heart-shaped dessert topped with a pile of walnuts and notably free of icing.

An eagle-eyed detail caught fans’ attention in one of the photos: the tiny arm of her toddler son, who made a subtle cameo in the frame. Bündchen shares her son with her husband, Joaquim Valente.

The couple, who married in an intimate ceremony at home in November 2025, welcomed their first child together in February 2025. They have not yet revealed his name publicly.

Celebrity friends quickly flooded the comments to wish Bündchen well.

Heidi Klum left a goat emoji followed by “Happy Birthday G❤️,” while Victoria’s Secret, the brand that helped propel Bündchen to international fame in the early 2000s, commented, “Happy birthday gorgeous .”

While Bündchen soaked up love online, her ex-husband Tom Brady also shared his own social media moment that week.

The retired NFL star posted images from his FIFA World Cup album on Monday, featuring photos of their daughter Vivian, whom followers noted looked strikingly similar to her mother.

Bündchen and Brady share two children — Benjamin, 16, and Vivian, 13 — following their 2022 divorce, which ended a 13-year marriage.

In recent months, Bündchen has offered several looks into her family life. She posted a rare set of family photos in January and followed with a Father’s Day tribute to Valente that sparked attention for excluding any mention of Brady.

Professionally, she remains engaged in high-profile work. In June, she returned to the cover of W magazine, marking her first appearance on the publication in 19 years.

Her latest Instagram celebration captured the same balance of grounded simplicity and radiant confidence that has long defined her public persona.

As she begins what she calls a “new cycle,” Bündchen’s fans and peers clearly continue to celebrate both her career longevity and her joyful approach to life.
