Gisele Bündchen Gives an Update on Life at Home After Welcoming Baby Boy with Joaquim Valente: 'Truly Grateful'
Gisele Bündchen is settling into being a mom of three.
Now that she's three months into life with her newborn baby boy, the supermodel, 44, is giving an update on how her transition into being a mom of three is going. Bündchen, who welcomed her baby son earlier this year, spoke with Vogue France about how her routine has shifted.
"Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I'm back in control of my routine," says Bündchen. "As any new mom knows, it's incredible how much sleep — or lack of it — can change everything!"
"But once again, I feel truly grateful: being able to be home with my kids and enjoy every moment with them is priceless," she adds.

Bündchen is also mom to daughter Vivian, 12, and son Benjamin, 15, whom she shares with ex Tom Brady.
For Mother's Day this year, the Brazilian supermodel marked the special holiday by sharing the first photos of her new baby boy on Instagram — though she still has not revealed his name. The mom of three also acknowledged that she has been "quiet" on social media since her son's birth was revealed in February, explaining that she's been living in the moment.
"I've been quiet over here but very busy living life ... Sometimes, the most beautiful moments aren't shared — they're simply lived," she began in her post, adding, "Lately, I've been embracing the slower rhythms, the real connections, the beauty in the lessons that come with being present."
Bündchen then shared several photos of herself with the new baby, the first of which featured her cradling the infant, who sported a white "I ❤️ Mom" onesie, against her chest. The second photo was a family affair, with the new baby held in a group embrace with Bündchen, her boyfriend and her two kids.
News of Bündchen's baby's arrival first broke on Feb. 5 and was initially reported by TMZ. At the end of January, a source told PEOPLE seemed the "happiest she's ever been" ahead of welcoming her son.
"Gisele's doing great," the insider said at the time. "She seems the happiest she's ever been. She's truly thriving."
"The baby has been a happy surprise," the source added. "Joaquim can't wait for the baby to arrive. They are planning a home birth."

She took a risk to launch an anime-inspired swimwear brand during the pandemic. Now the Netflix of anime is giving her a big break.
Jasmine James launched a small anime-inspired clothing brand in 2021. She was worried it wouldn't be viewed as a serious business. Now, Crunchyroll, the world's biggest anime streaming platform, is tapping her for a collaboration. In 2021, during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Atlanta-based game concept artist Jasmine James was trying to stay creative. James, who runs the Instagram cosplay account Cutiepiesensei with over 500,000 followers, realized there wasn't much practical, anime-inspired clothing in the market. Anime-inspired fashion, she told Business Insider, was largely restricted to huge men's jackets or merchandise items that weren't wearable on a daily basis. So James and her husband spent more than $30,000 of their savings to launch Fira X Wear, a swimwear brand that blends cosplay elements with practical apparel. Since its initial launch, the brand's product range has expanded to include leisurewear. James left her game concept art job last year to focus on the brand full time. Now, the Netflix of anime, streaming platform Crunchyroll, is collaborating with James to launch a clothing collection inspired by the "My Hero Academia" anime series. Crunchyroll has around 17 million subscribers globally, the platform told BI. Fira X Wear's first drop, which has been in the making for a year, includes four items: a cropped jacket, a romper, a sweatshirt, and a pair of sweatpants. Two more product drops will follow. "Anime fans love to wear their fandom on their sleeve — literally," Crunchyroll's global vice president of consumer products, Anna Songco Adamian, told BI. "Fira X Wear and this collaboration is the culmination of all of that: professional design, craftsmanship, and fandom, blended into a wearable collection," Adamian said. Running Fira X Wear James was initially worried people wouldn't consider her brand a "serious business," given its pop-culture and cosplay-inspired roots. But she hopes that'll change — and that people will see how commercially viable anime is. "I feel like people think it's kiddish or only a certain age group is into it, without realizing that a lot of us, especially people in my age group, grew up with anime," James, 32, said. James said she didn't have a traditional fashion design background when she started her brand, apart from putting together her cosplay outfits. But she had plenty of experience making skins — alternative outfits and designs — for characters in video games. "I had to learn what colors and what silhouettes are visible from across the map. Because when you're playing, you have to be able to know who it is and know what their abilities are," James said. "So it taught me just the importance of color and shape and how to kind of apply those things in interesting ways to real life," she added. She said having experience with character design allowed her to "create things that are a little bit more unique than the average fashion drop." When deciding on pricing, James said she wanted her brand to be premium but still affordable. "When you initially go into anime or pop cultural merch, a lot of it can feel very cheap. On the other hand, you'll see very expensive designer launches. But everybody can't afford a $30,000 Gucci outfit to look like their favorite anime character," James said. Fira X Wear's swimwear, including tops and bottoms, costs roughly $50 each, and the hoodies are around $110. James hopes to expand her brand globally and design a collection of high-end pieces with more detailing. "There are plenty of times where I'll go into full character concept artist mode, and I'm clearly creating something that would be extremely expensive to produce," James said. For now, she's excited about her collaboration with Crunchyroll. "To have them look at what I've been doing on social media and look at my designs and instantly be like, yeah, we want to put our names alongside that, it's a huge honor for me," James said.

Halle Berry takes on commenters ‘in their feelings' about her sexy Mother's Day post
Halle Berry has a message for those critical of her steamy Mother's Day post. Berry shared a video on Instagram in honor of the May holiday and used it as an opportunity to promote her Let's Spin intimacy gel, along with her boyfriend, musician Van Hunt. 'I'm going to tell you how my Mother's Day is going to end,' Berry said in the video with Hunt last month, adding that they were in Cannes and had some of her new product that they were about to…take for a spin. 'Happy Mother's Day once again, everybody,' she said. 'I hope all of you are somewhere spinning.' 'Oh my God. I ain't never been so happy to have Mother's Day come to an end,' Hunt joked. The post drew some criticism, which Berry was asked about by Jenna Bush Hager as she co-hosted an hour of 'Today' this week. 'Other women got in their feelings,' Berry said. 'They were saying, 'Should she be talking about that on Mother's Day? Shouldn't she be with her kids somewhere?,'' Berry added. 'First of all, it's not 'Kid's Day.' It's called Mother's Day. It's Kid's Day every day of the year. That's my day. If I want to be in bed and spin with my man, then that's what I'm going to do.' Berry is the mother of two children from former relationships: daughter Nahla, 17, with model Gabriel Aubry, and son Maceo, 11, with actor Olivier Martinez.

King Charles and Prince Harry at point of ‘no turning back' as monarch shuts door on reconciliation: report
King Charles' bitter rift with Prince Harry has now reached a breaking point — and a royal reconciliation may no longer be possible, The Post understands. The monarch, 76, has kept a stoic silence on top of a 5,459-mile-long distance from his estranged youngest son following his and wife Meghan Markle's decision to quit royal life in 2020. Relations between the father-son duo have become so fractured, that palace insiders no longer believe that a reconciliation is in the cards for the feuding royals. 4 King Charles' bitter rift with Prince Harry has now reached a breaking point, The Post understands. Samir Hussein/WireImage 'There is no turning back,' royal expert Hilary Fordwich told Fox News. 'King Charles remains tender towards his son but can't risk communication. Prince William now has absolutely no interest in mending fences.' Fordwich added that the king's inner circle says he 'shouldn't' make peace with his son 'in a way that would burden Prince William's future reign.' 'The animosity is so deep that William has shut the door on Harry. Charles is not willing to go against his heir's wishes,' she added. Indeed, trust — or lack thereof — remains at the heart of the rift. An palace insider told The Post that the king 'simply doesn't trust Harry' — citing the Duke of Sussex's explosive BBC interview, which is said to have shattered what little trust remained between them. 4 The monarch, 76, has been estranged from the Sussexes ever since they quit royal life in 2020. Getty Images 4 An palace insider told The Post that the king 'simply doesn't trust Harry.' / MEGA The Post has reached out to Buckingham Palace and reps for the Sussexes for comment. It comes after insiders told People that the cancer-stricken king is hesitant to mend bridges with the Invictus Games founder, 40. 'The king and William don't trust Harry and Meghan with any kind of confidential conversation,' royal biographer Sally Bedell Smith told People, adding that 'the underlying issue is trust.' 'It wasn't meant to be an attack, but it would be seen as one. It makes Charles reaching out even harder,' royal author Valentine Low told the outlet. What's more, sources added that Harry's estranged brother and future king, Prince William, has no interest in extending an olive branch. 'There is not a good angel in his ear to say, 'Be a good dad and make the first move,'' Low told the outlet. 4 Palace insiders no longer believe that a reconciliation is on the cards for the feuding royals. AFP via Getty Images In the midst of it all, palace insiders say Queen Camilla is doing her best to 'stay out' of the drama. Last month, a royal commentator weighed in on the discourse, saying the duke needed to keep a 'dignified silence' if he ever wanted a chance at a reconciliation with his estranged family members.
