Tom Brady has broken his silence after ex-wife Gisele Bundchen welcomed her first child with new boyfriend Joaquim Valente.
Bundchen, who split from Brady in 2022 after 13 years of marriage, recently gave birth to her third baby, TMZ reported on Wednesday, with mother and child both said to be ‘happy and healthy.’
One day after the news was announced, Brady, 47, shared a cryptic post from another user on his Instagram story, which includes an emotional message about ‘being loved’ and ‘having a friend’.
‘I really think the secret to being loved is to love,’ the post reads. ‘And the secret to being interesting is to be interested. And the secret to having others find beauty in you is to find beauty in others. And the secret to having a friend is being a friend.’
The legendary quarterback wrote alongside it on his story: ‘Love this’.
It remains unclear when Gisele, also 47, welcomed her new bundle of joy with jiujitsu instructor Joaquim, while the gender and name have also not yet been revealed.

DailyMail.com has reached out to reps for Bundchen and is yet to hear back.
Brady already shares daughter Vivian Lake, 11, and son Benjamin Rein, 15, with the Brazilian model. He is also father to 17-year-old son Jack, who he welcomed with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan shortly after their 2006 split.
Bundchen considered herself a ‘bonus’ parent to his mini-me and they appear to maintain a close relationship even after they announced their divorce in October 2022.
Less than a year later, Gisele was linked with Joaquim while her former husband was rumored to be dating model Irina Shayk.
Brady’s romance with Shayk was never publicly confirmed, yet Bundchen has continued to go from strength to strength with Valente before they eventually welcomed their first child together this year.
Despite his emotional post on Instagram, the NFL legend, who is preparing to call his first Super Bowl this weekend, is happy for his ex-wife and ‘wishes her nothing but the best’ after her baby news this week, a source told Page Six.
