Tom Brady's ex-wife Gisele Bündchen makes a radiant return to modeling with Vogue France's ethereal postpartum photoshoot
Supermodel Gisele Bündchen is back in front of the camera, and her return is nothing short of breathtaking. Just three months after welcoming her third child — her first with boyfriend Joaquim Valente — the 44-year-old icon is redefining postpartum beauty and proving that motherhood can be just as radiant as any runway moment. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now A comeback rooted in authenticity and quiet strength For the June/July 2025 issue of Vogue France, Bündchen collaborated with legendary photographer Mario Sorrenti in a dreamy editorial that blends ethereal fashion with emotional resonance. Draped in sheer lace gowns reminiscent of both Victorian elegance and forest fairy-tale magic, Gisele channels serenity, power, and femininity in every frame. It's a stark contrast to the high-drama fashion editorials of old, offering a softer, soul-rich vision of beauty. These images, which she described as part of a broader wellness message, aren't just about style — they're about presence. 'To me, wellness goes far beyond physical health. It's not just about what you eat or how you move, it's also about how you feel, think, and live,' Bündchen shared on Instagram. 'It's in your thoughts, your habits, the boundaries you honor, and the inner peace you protect. True wellness is about embracing, honoring, and nourishing every part of who you are. ' Post-baby glow with purpose and presence This isn't just a return to modeling for Gisele — it's a reintroduction of the woman she's become. After years devoted to raising her children with ex-husband Tom Brady, as well as helping co-parent his eldest, Bündchen's latest chapter is one of empowerment and earned peace. 'I feel more comfortable in my own skin and have a clearer understanding of my priorities,' she told Vogue France. 'I'm grateful for where I am. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now I feel like I've earned it.' Even the glamour of hair and makeup felt like a personal reward. 'Having my hair and make-up done makes me feel like I'm on vacation,' she joked, revealing that in the early weeks with her newborn, she 'hardly brushed [her] hair.' With her baby boy — whose middle name is reportedly River — now sleeping through the night, Gisele says she's finally regaining her rhythm. On Mother's Day, she shared a glimpse of her 'little angel' and opened up about 'embracing the slower rhythms' of life. Also Read: Whether she's wading through coastal waters or redefining wellness, Gisele Bündchen's return is a powerful reminder that beauty, strength, and self-love don't fade — they evolve.

Joel Le Scouarnec: A monster who lived among us and got away with it
There are so many aspects to the crimes of Joel Le Scouarnec that it can feel bewildering. Not just the volume of his offences, but also the failings that allowed him to get away with such horrendous abuse for so long. A monster who lived among us, and got away with it. There are the questions about whether French society puts some people on such a lofty pedestal they become beyond reproach. The way in which police treat victims, and the support those people get - or don't get - when they come to terms with offences that happened to them, and often changed their lives. But perhaps the most troubling side of this whole trial has been the relative indifference that has greeted it. You might imagine Le Scouarnec's crimes would lead to a searing national debate, a public inquiry and government soul-searching. That, after all, is what happened following the trial of Dominique Pelicot who was found guilty of inviting dozens of men to rape or sexually abuse his wife Gisele over the course of a decade. She, like many of Le Scouarnec's victims, was unaware of what had happened to her - Gisele was drugged; Le Scouarnec preyed on children still recovering from anaesthetic. In the Pelicot case, there was one victim and dozens of perpetrators. Le Scouarnec is the reverse - one man who attacked hundreds of people. And yet the reception has been so different. Pelicot's case was followed around the world, and its verdict echoed through French society. Le Scouarnec's victims have complained about being ignored and forgotten. 2:45 So what's happened? Perhaps Le Scouarnec's crimes are simply too horrendous - maybe we find his level of child abuse simply too dreadful to confront and instead turn away. Possibly there is the argument that child abuse is a crime with which we are all too familiar, whereas the actions of Dominique Pelicot - drugging his own wife to allow strangers to rape her - were something horrendously new. And then there is Gisele Pelicot - a totemic character who chose to reveal her identity and to own, and so mould, the story of what happened to her. For many, she is a heroic figure - a sign of hope amid the horror. In the case of Le Scouarnec, there is very little sign of redemption. Everything seems bleak. Or is it simply that the French establishment does not want to accept the crimes of Le Scouarnec were enabled by terrible mistakes - that opportunities to stop him were repeatedly missed. Whatever the reasons, far, far too many of Le Scouarnec's victims feel as if they have been left behind and forgotten; that their nation is ignoring their suffering. And that, if nothing else, should give France reason to pause and to think.

Nearly 3 Years After Her Divorce From Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen Said She Feels Like She's 'Earned' This New Phase Of Her Life
Gisele Bündchen is back in her new mom era and feeling better than ever. In February, the supermodel welcomed a new baby boy with her boyfriend of nearly two years, Joaquim Valente. She already shares two children, 15-year-old Benjamin and 12-year-old Vivian, with her ex-husband, Tom Brady, whom she divorced in October 2022 after nearly 14 years of marriage. Gisele also counts Tom's 17-year-old son Jack, whom he shares with Bridget Moynahan, as her 'bonus' child. Related: "It Was Not Right": Shailene Woodley Broke Her Silence About The Aaron Rodgers Breakup Since her pregnancy made headlines in October 2024, Gisele has maintained a pretty low profile. She's yet to confirm the new baby's name, but earlier this month, she celebrated Mother's Day on Instagram by sharing the first photographs of her baby boy, along with a heartfelt caption in which she explained that she's been 'very busy living life.' Now, Gisele has taken a moment out of her family bubble to stun on the cover of French Vogue (as you do), and in an accompanying interview, she answered a few questions about this new phase of her life, which she said is all about 'being with [her] family.'

But once again, I feel truly grateful: being able to be home with my kids and enjoy every moment with them is priceless.' Of course, a lot has changed in Gisele's life in the last few years since her divorce from Tom — something she previously described as 'the death of [her] dream.' 'You give everything you got to achieve your dream,' she told Vanity Fair in March 2023. 'You give a hundred percent of yourself, and it's heartbreaking when it doesn't end up the way you hoped for, and worked for, but you can only do your part.' Flash forward to today, and it sounds like she's finally happier than ever. 'I feel more comfortable in my own skin and have a clearer understanding of my priorities,' she told Vogue. 'I'm grateful for where I am. I feel like I've earned it.' Good for you, Gisele! You can find the French Vogue cover and interview here.

Gisele Bündchen feels ‘back in control' of her life
Gisele Bündchen feels 'back in control' of her life. The model made the statement while sharing a glimpse into her life as a new mother in a new chat, just three months after giving birth to her first child with boyfriend Joaquim Valente. The 44-year-old, speaking to Vogue France for its latest cover profile, said: 'Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I'm back in control of my routine. '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.' Gisele and Joaquim, 36, reportedly welcomed their baby boy in February 2025, following pregnancy reports confirmed in October 2024. While they have not publicly shared his full name, People magazine reported the couple selected River as their son's middle name. The couple began dating in 2023. Gisele is also mother to Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12, from her previous marriage to former American football quarterback Tom Brady, 46. She was also stepmother to Tom's eldest son, Jack, 17, from his relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan, 53. Gisele and Tom finalised their divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage. In her new interview, Gisele also spoke about the deep joy she finds in family life. 'Being with my family, especially when we can do outdoor activities together,' she said. The model added when asked to describe her perfect day: 'Spending time with (my children) is what makes me happiest.' Gisele's interview also marked a quiet return to work for her following a period of maternity leave. 'It's nice to see everyone again after this break,' she said, adding: 'Getting my hair and makeup done feels like I'm on vacation – with a baby, the nights are so short that I've barely brushed my hair in the last few months!' Reflecting on how motherhood has shaped her over the years, Gisele said: 'I feel more comfortable in my own skin and have a clearer understanding of my priorities. I'm grateful for where I am. I feel like I've earned it.' Gisele, who is typically private about her family life, shared her first photo of her newborn on Instagram earlier this month. The 11 May post featured a selfie of her cradling her son and was captioned: 'I've been quiet over here but very busy living life … Sometimes, the most beautiful moments aren't shared – they're simply lived.' She continued in the post: 'Today, on Mother's Day, I especially miss my mom, but my heart is full. 'Being a mother has been my greatest gift, a journey that humbles me, teaches me, and fills me with gratitude every single day. 'To all the mothers out there, your love shapes the world in ways words can't describe. I see you, I honour you. Happy Mother's Day! Sending so much love your way!' The post also included a group photo that appeared to show Gisele and Joaquim embracing Benjamin, Vivian and their baby boy in a family hug.
