LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Supermodel Gisele Bundchen and Patriots quarterback husband Tom Brady are expecting, People reported.

The Brazilian beauty is “ecstatic” and due early next year, according to multiple sources.

“Gisele will be an excellent mother,” another People source said of the 28-year-old. “She’s always wanted kids.”

“Family is everything,” Gisele told the mag 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 No. 1.”

Another source said, “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.”

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Gisele and Tom were married twice this spring. They first walked down the aisle in a very private ceremony on February 26 at St. Monica Catholic Church in Los Angeles and then again in early April in the Nicoya Peninsula region of Costa Rica, where the Brazilian beauty owns a home.

This will be Gisele’s first child. The New England Patriots quarterback has a son, John, with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.
