Gisele Bundchen expects son Gabriel

According to a report in American tabloid 'The National Enquirer', Brazilian model Gisele Bündchen (29), wife of American football player for the New England Patriots Tom Brady (32) is expecting a boy who will be called Gabriel.

A source told the magazine: "One of Gisele's five sisters is named Gabriela, and she's always thought it was a beautiful name. Gisele was brought up a Roman Catholic, and Gabriel is an archangel, a messenger from God, in the New Testament.

She's also friends with Brazilian singer-songwriter Gabriel Guerra. They met in Rio de Janeiro last year, and he wrote the song 'Tribute to Gisele' for her. She liked it so much she put it on her website.

Tom and Gisele didn't care if they had a boy or a girl, just as long as everything was OK with the child. But now that Gisele knows it's a boy, she's so excited, she can't stop telling people."
