After 16 years of celebrating her special day with the presence of the NFL legend in her life, this year marks a significant change for the Victoria’s Secret angel. Gisele Bündchen and the NFL superstar first crossed paths on a memorable blind date in 2006, and their whirlwind romance has been the talk of the town ever since.

However, on October 28 last year, the couple decided to go their separate ways. While Tom Brady continued his game and eventually retired from football, Gisele, now the world’s second richest model after Kathy Ireland, devoted herself to philanthropic work and collaborations with luxurious brands. However, this year holds a poignant significance for Gisele Bündchen as she commemorates her big day without her former partner by her side.

It’s Gisele’s birthday today!

Born on July 20, 1980, Gisele Bündchen, the woman who kickstarted her remarkable career at the tender age of 16, has shattered barriers and achieved extraordinary success. As her birthday approaches, anticipation builds to see if Tom Brady will delight fans with his presence or a heartfelt tribute. While she is undoubtedly celebrating her big day in Brazil with her family, according to People Magazine, “Gisele Bündchen is keeping it low-key for her birthday this year.”

Turning 43 today, she is joined by her twin sister Patricia and the rest of her family for the festivities. The supermodel has planned multiple visits to Brazil this summer, with her mother’s birthday coinciding with her celebrations. As Gisele’s admirers eagerly await a possible reunion with Brady, they hope for a touching birthday wish from him, much like last year. But still, the question lingers: Will Tom Brady join the party?

Will this year’s birthdays have the emotional touch of last year?

Although divorced, the question remains whether they will acknowledge each other’s birthdays this year. The catwalk queen’s big day is today, while the former New England Patriots QB’s birthday is just around the corner on August 3. Last year, Tom Brady posted a heartfelt message for Gisele on her 42nd birthday, expressing his admiration and gratitude. He captioned Gisele’s smiling photo with, “Enjoy your special day and I know this year will be your best year yet ❤️”

He continued, “Thank you for inspiring me with your honesty and authenticity.” Furthermore, the glamour diva also shared a long heartfelt Instagram post, extending birthday wishes to the NFL legend last year. However, their approach to Mother’s Day and Father’s Day this year took different paths after their separation. Brady extended wishes to his exes, including Gisele, on Mother’s Day, but the fashion queen did not pay tribute to him on Father’s Day.
