Camille Kostek, longtime partner of NFL legend Rob Gronkowski, has shared her reaction to the news of Gisele Bundchen's pregnancy with her new partner, Joaquim Valente. Although Kostek and Gronkowski have a close connection with Tom Brady, she revealed that she, like everyone else, found out through the media.
Kostek, speaking at The Nights of the Jack event in Los Angeles, expressed her happiness for Bundchen's upcoming addition to the family.
"I'm really happy for her," Kostek said.
"Getting pregnant is such a beautiful blessing. And I'm happy for her."
Bundchen, who separated from Brady in 2022, shares two children, Benjamin and Vivian, with him. She began dating Valente shortly after the split, and is now about five to six months along in her pregnancy with Valente's child.
According to Kostek, Bundchen and Valente are waiting until the birth to find out the baby's gender, making this new journey even more special for the couple.
Brady's reaction
A source close to Page Six shared that Brady hadn't anticipated this development, though after the initial surprise, he has come to accept it and feels genuinely pleased for Bundchen.
"Tom knew that things were serious between Gisele and Joaquin but he never imagined they would be having a child together," the insider claimed.
"It just wasn't something that was on his radar. So when Gisele broke the news to him he was stunned, to say the least.
"At the end of the day, Tom's sole focus is on his children and his career. What Gisele decides to do with her own life is really none of his business."
Brady, who was married to Bundchen from 2009 until their split, also has an older son, Jack, 17, from his previous relationship with Bridget Moynahan.
