Vânia Nonnenmacher, the mother of Brazilian model Gisele Bündchen (43), is dead. This was announced by the Moinhos de Vento Hospital in Porto Alegre, where she was admitted a few days ago.
Bündchen’s mother was taken to the hospital on January 26, according to the statement signed by several doctors. She died on January 28, 2024 at the age of 75 as a result of cancer.
Gisele Bündchen is one of six daughters of Vânia Nonnenmacher and Valdir Bündchen. The supermodel has not yet commented on the sad news. Last September, Bündchen posted photos of her family on Instagram and wrote: “Always in my heart and my prayers.” Her own children Vivian (11) and Benjamin (14), her parents and sisters can be seen in the photos.
The ex-wife of American football star Tom Brady (46) had recently spoken to “People” magazine about the difficult last few years and her parents, who were in poor health. “It’s been very hard on my family. It’s been a lot – in every area of my life,” she said. “I feel like when it rains, it pours. With all the different twists and turns life takes, all we can do is make the best of what’s happening around us.”
