On Monday, Dec. 23, the pregnant supermodel, 44, enjoyed a sunset beach stroll during a holiday vacation in Costa Rica with her boyfriend Joaquim Valente.

Bündchen took her chic model-off-duty style to the outing, wearing a patterned bikini underneath a sheer, cream-colored crochet top and wrap skirt. The top was cropped just enough to show the star’s growing belly, which she cradled while posing for photos on the sand.

Her long, honey blonde hair was parted to the side and cascaded around her shoulders in soft waves. She also wore a pair of dark sunglasses.

Bündchen has “received many positive messages and congratulations,” says the insider, adding that while the soon-to-be mother of three “wanted to keep it private for as long as she could, doing so was starting to be a challenge.”

In February 2024, a source confirmed to PEOPLE that Bündchen and Valente have beendating since June 2023.

In July, a source told PEOPLE that the pair’s “friendship turned romantic after her divorce from Brady.

“It’s been very natural for her to date Joaquim,” the source added.
