The supermodel credits personality, spirituality and smart choices for her staying power. In fresh W Magazine chats she spills on ditching the yes-every-time grind. Ex Tom Brady gets a mention but the focus stays on her glow-up.
Gisele Bundchen told W Magazine she feels lucky she can now pick projects and only work with people she genuinely enjoys. The 45-year-old said her spiritual practice helped shift her from chasing every opportunity to protecting her peace.
She explained that personality played a bigger role in her success than looks alone. "What people responded to wasn’t only my look, but also my personality," the Brazilian beauty noted, adding she embodied a healthier, energetic spirit on runways.
Bundchen, now married to Joaquim Valente, posted on Instagram at the start of 2026 wishing everyone love, health and new adventures. The former Mrs. Brady was married to the quarterback from 2009 until 2022.
So… is the runway queen finally living her own advice, or just serving more wisdom?
