Gisele Bündchen Is Pregnant

Fame News/Abaca

Gisele Bündchen is expecting and “ecstatic,” sources tell PEOPLE. She is due early next year.

Speculation has grown since pictures showing the supermodel in Brazil this week surfaced showing what seems to be a perceptible bump. Gisele and New England Patriots quarterback husband Tom Brady were married twice this spring – first in a ceremony in Los Angeles Feb. 26, then exchanging vows before friends in early April at Gisele’s Costa Rica home.

“Gisele will be an excellent mother,” a source tells PEOPLE. “She’s always wanted kids.” Reps for Gisele reached by PEOPLE for confirmation refused to comment.

“Family is everything,” Gisele, who turns 29 next month, told PEOPLE two weeks ago. “I think family is the base to everything. I think that is one of the things I’m most grateful for. I have a lot to be grateful for but I think that’s definitely number one.”

Another source close to the couple says, “You know Gisele and Tom are just enjoying themselves, being married and just doing their thing … Gisele has been talking about it with friends. She says she’s ready for a family.”

This is her first child; Tom has a son, 21-month-old John Edward Thomas, with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.
