GISELE BUNDCHEN'S BUMPY START TO MARRIED LIFE


By Ian Markham-Smith - Posted on 23 June 2009

Supermodel Gisele Bundchen and her new husband appear to be enjoying a bumpy start to their married life.
She is sporting a baby bump while American football star Tom Brady's kayak hit a bump in the water which led to him having to be rescued from the drink, according to reports.
The Brazilian catwalk queen, who used to date Hollywood heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio, is due early next year, sources tell American celebrity news magazines. She is reportedly “ecstatic.”
Speculation has grown since pictures showing the 28-year-old Victoria's Secret model in Brazil last week surfaced showing what seems to be a perceptible bump.
"Gisele will be an excellent mother," a source told the magazine. "She's always wanted kids."
But Brady's mother, Galynn, and Bundchen's agent at IMG both said declined to comment.
Brady already has a son, Jack, born in 2007, with actress Bridget Moynahan.
In an interview with Vanity Fair magazine, Bundchen said she felt the boy was "100 percent" hers.
"I want him to have a great relationship with his mom, because that's important, but I love him the same way as if he were mine," she said.
"I feel grateful because I have a lot of love in my life. I found the person I'm sharing my life with. I have a good man," she continued.
Late last month, New England Patriots quarterback Brady denied early reports that his wife was pregnant.
"One is enough," Brady said in late May. "I have dogs, and that's all I need."
Bundchen was recently reported to have told friends she's pregnant.
The model hit the catwalk in a bump-hiding mini dress last Wednesday for Sao Paulo Fashion Week Spring-Summer 2010 in her native Brazil.
Meanwhile, the newlyweds, who married twice in the spring - in late February in California and again in April at the model's in Costa Rica home, were paddling down the Charles River in Massachusetts when the football stud fumbled and fell overboard.
"We were tying up our boat to a buoy and the boat boy came over and said, 'You are never going to guess who is on the Charles renting kayaks right now … Do you want to go check it out?' " local schoolteacher Robin Leeds told Boston's Channel 7 TV News. "I said, 'Yeah.'
Would-be stargazer Leeds was in the motorboat sailing around hoping to get a glimpse of the star couple when she only saw Bundchen in the kayak and Brady in the water.
Leeds came to his rescue, reaching down and pulling him into her boat.
"I actually asked him why he fell in," she said. "He said he was racing one of his friends. It was Tom, Gisele and his friend…so he was racing his friend."
The heroic teacher made sure to ask Brady for a picture.
"Of course, you saved my life," she claims he said.
Leeds found Brady “really friendly, really appreciative that we fished him out of the Charles. I talked with Gisele. We talked about how beautiful the weather was."
