Gisele Bündchen's weekend had a double dose of birthday celebrations.

On Sunday, July 21, Bündchen shared a carousel of photos to Instagram, documenting her 44th birthday celebrations with twin sister Patricia. The first showed the two sharing a sweet embrace as they both smiled. In another, the sisters could each be seen blowing out number 44 birthday candles on their own cake.

"Grateful to be celebrating one more year around the sun with my super sis," Bündchen gushed in the caption, adding, "Thank you everyone for all the love and birthday wishes. Feeling blessed to be surrounded by so much love. Looking forward to what is ahead🙏❤️." The businesswoman shared the caption in English, and then also wrote it again in her native tongue, Portuguese.

It seemed the pair had an intimate birthday party, with another photo in Bündchen's Instagram post showing a beautifully decorated table with nine place settings. The table featured china covered in blue palm trees, coordinating glasses, and an array of flowers throughout.

The former Victoria's Secret model also shared a couple pictures of her daughter with ex Tom Brady, 11-year-old Vivian. The mother-daughter pair relax on a boat with beautiful views in one photo, and another shows them sharing an embrace while on the beach. Bündchen's famous friends shared birthday messages in the comments, like fellow model Karlie Kloss, who wrote, "Happy happy birthday you beautiful souls 🥰🙏❤️."

Though not pictured, Bündchen also shares 14-year-old son Benjamin with ex Brady, with whom she finalized her divorce in October 2022. The former power couple had met through a friend in December 2006, and the NFL quarterback proposed in January 2009. They quickly tied the knot in California in February 2009.

The birthday post comes just one day after Vogue published an ode to Bündchen, dubbing her the "Queen of Rich Mom Style." The piece lauded her perfectly curated wardrobe that consists of stylish athleisure wear for the morning and well-tailored business attire, like wide-legged trousers and suit sets. Describing this aesthetic, the publication wrote that the "Rich Mom" is "just as comfortable in loose white linen as she is in a Gala-friendly gown."
