Gisele Bundchen Makes Rare Appearance With Twin Sister Patricia
Gisele Bündchen rang in her birthday with some special ladies.
In fact, the supermodel—who turned 43 on July 20—embarked on a family girls' trip to Brazil for the occasion. As seen in vacation photos posted on Instagram July 24, Gisele celebrated her big day alongside her twin sister Patricia, as well as 10-year-old daughter Vivian—who she shares with ex-husband Tom Brady—and niece.
One image showed Gisele and her sister enjoying a birthday lunch on a boat, while the supermodel was pictured in another snap sharing a sweet moment by a waterfall during a family hike. In a third photo, Gisele and Patricia are seated across from their respective daughters during a cozy meal in a stone cabin.
"I wanted to thank everyone who took the time to congratulate and send good vibes on our birthday," Gisele captioned the snapshots. "I am so lucky I got to spend it with my twin sister and our girly girls."

She added, "I feel blessed to be surrounded by so much love."
This was Gisele's first birthday since her divorce from Tom, with whom she also shares 13-year-old son Benjamin, last fall. (Additionally, the retired NFL quarterback is dad to son Jack, 15, from his previous relationship with Bridget Moynahan.)
Her girls' trip comes amid speculation that Tom has moved on from their divorce with model Irina Shayk. The seven-time Super Bowl champion, 45, and Irina, 37, were spotted out in Los Angeles together over the weekend, a month after they both attended art dealer Joe Nahmad wedding to model Madison Headrick in Sardina.
Neither Tom or Irina—who is mom to 6-year-old daughter Lea with ex Bradley Cooper—have publicly commented on their relationship status. However, both Tom and Gisele have faced romance rumors with other people since their breakup in October.
Earlier this year, reports linked Gisele with family jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente, though she later denied that their relationship was anything more than platonic. "I think, at this point, unfortunately, because I'm divorced, I'm sure that they're going to try to attach me to anything," she said in a March interview with Vanity Fair. "He's our teacher and, most importantly, he's a person that I admire and that I trust. It's so good to have that kind of energy, to have my kids around that type of energy."
She had also denied "absurd" romance rumors involving billionaire developer Jeffrey Soffer. "I have zero relationship with him in any way," Gisele told the magazine. "He's Tom's friend, not my friend."
