How Gisele Bündchen celebrated first Christmas since Tom Brady divorce

Gisele Bündchen prioritized family on her first Christmas without Tom Brady.

The former Victoria’s Secret Angel flew down to her home country of Brazil with her kids to visit her parents and documented their adventures in multiple photos posted to her Instagram account Tuesday.

“Where everything that is planted grows and what blooms the most is love,” she wrote in a message translated from Portuguese.

“Always so good to be back home❤️.”

Bündchen, 42, son Benjamin, 13, and daughter Vivian, 10, can be seen in the photos enjoying a bit of horseback riding, feeding farm animals, bike riding, fishing and picnicking with family while in South America.

Brady, 45, opened up earlier this month about his “new experience” of Christmas without his kids since he and Bündchen divorced.

“I’m gonna learn how to deal with Christmas Eve in a hotel, and I’m gonna have to learn how to deal with Christmas and Christmas night and still go out there and be a professional,” he said.

“It’ll be a new experience that I’ve never had before that I’m gonna learn how to deal with. … I think that’s what life’s about.”

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback, who beat the Arizona Cardinals on Christmas Day, spent time with his kids on Dec. 26 this year.

“[I] look forward to celebrating Christmas with my kids the day after, which is, you know, just part of what football season has been for a long time,” he continued.
