Gisele Bündchen spent her Thanksgiving in a tropical paradise with boyfriend Joaquim Valente.
RadarOnline.com can reveal an inside look at the pregnant supermodel and jiu-jitsu instructor's holiday in Costa Rica.
Gisele, 44, took her two kids – son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11, whom she shares with ex-husband Tom Brady – on vacation with her boyfriend while the former Super Bowl winner, 47, was sacked with working the NFL Thanksgiving Day game in Dallas, Texas.
The 44-year-old model has a lot to be thankful for this holiday season as she's expecting her first child with Valente, 36.
A source said: "Gisele took the kids and headed to Costa Rica with Joaquim to spend the holiday with each other."
Bündchen and Valente returned to Costa Rica, where they previously spent a summer vacation with her kids following her 2022 divorce from Brady.
She additionally owns a home in the sunny Central America paradise, making the destination a familiar favorite of hers and her growing family.
Brady was said to be "supportive" of his ex-wife taking their kids on vacation for the Thanksgiving holiday, as a source revealed that was "the arrangement he and Gisele agreed upon".
While the former NFL superstar was alone on Thanksgiving, the insider said he was "busy" with work and would have "plenty of time to spend with his children" over the upcoming holidays.
Meanwhile, the Brazilian beauty recently shared a snap of her relaxing in a luxury knit lounge set while sitting on a dock with a book, along with a cryptic caption seemingly hinting at her new chapter in life.
She wrote: "There’s no guide to life, no perfect roadmap to follow. But remember everything you are, is a choice!
"To feel good, to be healthy, and to cultivate a positive mindset are daily choices that only you can commit to.
"Each day presents the opportunity to choose habits that nourish your body, uplift your spirit, and guide you toward the life you truly want to live."
As Bündchen embraced her life post-divorce, insiders revealed Brady has been "struggling" – and was said to be "stunned" by his ex-wife's pregnancy news.
The source told RadarOnline.com: "Tom has been struggling to get his TV career off the ground after he was sent absolutely reeling by Gisele's pregnancy news.
"This holiday is going to be a sad, lonely period of reflection of him because he's single.
"He's wondering if he made a mistake letting his marriage crumble."
