Gisele Bundchen was one of the most popular supermodels of the 2000s and her name is still present in the fashion industry. But catwalks and fame were not the only important things in the life of the Brazilian model. None of them even compare to the love for the American football player, Tom Brady.
They started their relationship in 2006 and everything seemed perfect, but two months later, Brady is contacted by his ex-girlfriend. She was pregnant.
"Tom told me that his ex-girlfriend was pregnant. "The next day, the news spread everywhere and I felt as if the world had turned upside down," she recounts in her memoir, "Lessons: My Road to a Meaningful Life."
Although he did not expect it and, as he confessed, it was a difficult moment for him, the birth of John "Jack" Edward Thomas changed everything:
"It made my heart expand in ways I did not know were possible."
Gisele says he "learned how to be a mother", even though she is not his biological mother.
2 years later, Gisele and Tom got married and the family grew with the birth of Benjamin and later, Vivian.
Although she is not Jake's biological mother, she has felt like hers since day one:
"I understand that he has a mother and I respect that, but for me he remains my son. I feel 100% like that. I love him in the same way as if he were mine "
That's why she does not like the term "stepmother", but prefers to call herself "bonus mom".
"I like the word 'bonus mom' because I feel it's a blessing in my life. "I feel very lucky to have had a wonderful little angel in my life," she said.
With Jack's biological mother, actress Bridget Moynahan, they have a good relationship and from the beginning they shared parenting with good relationship.
