Gisele Bündchen’s new necklace is more than a stylish accessory — it appears to be a heartfelt tribute to her family and a potential hint at her new baby boy’s name.
The model, 45, was seen wearing a yellow gold necklace with the letters “J, B, V and A,” in a photo posted alongside her sister Patricia via Instagram on Tuesday, January 13, just over a month after tying the knot with husband Joaquim Valente.
She seemingly wore “J” for Valente’s first name, a “B” for her 16-year-old son, Benjamin, and “V” for her 13-year-old daughter, Vivian — both shared with her ex Tom Brady — and the letter “A” which is believed to be the first initial of baby No. 3’s moniker, which has yet to be shared publicly. Bündchen wore the new necklace in a stack with other gold jewelry.
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel reportedly chose River as her son’s middle name, according to a February 2025 report from People. (Bündchen and Valente welcomed their first child that month).

“As the new year unfolds, my heart is full of gratitude for the moments spent recharging with my family. May this year bring you love, health, peace, and new adventures,” she captioned her latest series of portraits on Instagram, including more sweet moments with her family. “May you find the courage to honor your heart’s calling and to know and love yourself more deeply.”
Bündchen concluded her caption, “Wishing you endless blessings and a beautiful journey ahead. Here’s to making 2026 a truly joyful and meaningful year. Sending so much love. 🤍”
Gisele Bündchen brought a newlywed glow to the red carpet weeks after her wedding to Joaquim Valente. “Blooming night with @vivaraonline,” Bündchen, 45, wrote via Instagram on Friday, December 19. “Congratulations Marina, everything looked beautiful! ✨✨.” Bündchen attended the annual end-of-year dinner held by Vivara at the Brasileira Cinema, dressed in a golden gown with […]
Katharina Junkert made the necklace, which was first seen on the cover girl when Bündchen was spotted on a bike ride with her husband-to-be in September 2025. “Diamond initial necklace Melis, shipped to Miami this summer,” the jeweler wrote via Instagram on January 13.
In December, Bündchen and Valente officially tied the knot after nearly three years of dating.
According to a marriage certificate obtained by Us Weekly on December 19, 2025, the couple obtained their marriage license in Miami on December 1 and exchanged vows two days later on December 3.
Three months after giving birth, Gisele Bündchen is opening up about life with her and boyfriend Joaquim Valente’s baby boy. “Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I’m back in control of my routine,” Bündchen, 44, shared in a profile for Vogue France published on Monday, May 26. “As any new mom […]
Bündchen and Valente began dating in June 2023 following her divorce from the retired NFL quarterback. The model and Brady, 48, were married from 2009 to 2022, during which time they welcomed their two children. (Bündchen is also stepmother to Brady’s son Jack, 17, whom he welcomed with ex Bridget Moynahan.)
“This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first,” Bündchen shared about her romance with Valente in a March 2024 interview with the New York Times. “It’s very different. It is very honest, and it’s very transparent.”
More recently, she spoke about her home life and how she was soaking up all the time she could with her new addition. “Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I’m back in control of my routine,” she told Vogue France last May. “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.”
