Gisele Bündchen gave a rare glimpse at her large family during a recent trip home to her native Brazil.
“Always in my heart and prayers ❤️,” the supermodel wrote via Instagram Tuesday alongside a carousel of photos from the vacation.
In one of the snaps, Gisele posed with mom Vânia and dad Valdir as well as her five sisters, Raquel, Graziela, Gabriela, Rafaela and Patricia, her fraternal twin.
The Brazilian bombshell, 43, gently rested her head on her mother’s while smiling for the camera.
Other pictures revealed Gisele’s two children with ex-husband Tom Brady — son Benjamin, 13, and daughter Vivian, 10 — were also present for the gathering.
Throughout the years, the former Victoria’s Secret Angel has mostly remained private about her family life before the spotlight.
However, she opened up about having the “best childhood in the world” in her 2018 memoir, “Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life.”

“When I was growing up in Horizontina, [Brazil], there were six of us girls at the dinner table, six voices rising up to talk or laugh or disagree at once,” she wrote, according to Us Weekly.
“One day my dad made a rule: if one of us had something to say, we needed to raise our hand.”
More recently, Gisele made a rare public appearance with her twin sister at a red carpet event in Miami in May.

At the time, she told People that she and Patricia are “very close.”
“I know she’s got my back like I got hers,” the supermodel said. “We trust each other and we always want the best for one another and that is priceless.”

The mom of two also described her tight bond with her other siblings, saying, “My family is everything to me and my sisters are my best friends even if sometimes we disagree.
“Family is what gives us our foundation, they are our greatest teachers, and they help us become who we are.”
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel recently opened up her “tough” divorce from Tom Brady.
Gisele’s quality time with her family comes after she recently got candid about her difficult divorce from the NFL star after 13 years of marriage.
“It’s been very tough on my family. It’s been a lot — in every area of my life,” she told People in an interview published last week.
Gisele, who had been dealing with her parents’ health issues, finalized her split from Brady, 46, in October 2022 — six months after he decided to return to football after a brief retirement.

However, before officially calling it quits, the former couple took a “family stabilization” course to help navigate their co-parenting relationship.
Since then, both Benjamin and Vivian have been spotted spending time with their parents, from a father-daughter trip to Africa to getaways in Costa Rica with their mom.
Back in June, Brady told People he had a “little calendar” to keep track of their children’s travel plans, admitting, “These kids have a really good summer lined up.”
