Being a parent has its challenges, and Gisele knows this firsthand.
Gisele Bundchen recently shared her experience of what she described as “one of the worst days” in her life.
The iconic supermodel revealed that this challenging day occurred when her daughter suffered a serious injury at the age of 7, a moment she and her husband, Tom, had to navigate.
“She had a fall, and she broke her arm,” the legendary supermodel told People magazine. “I was there watching that whole thing in slow motion, and it was one of the worst days of my life.”
Bundchen went on to explain, “When she got up from the horse the first time she hurt herself, her arm was bent. And she was like, ‘Mom!’ And I’m like, ‘Oh my God.’ Imagine.”

Vivian, who is now 10 years old, needed to have a pin inserted into her arm to aid in her recovery.
“It was an intense experience,” the supermodel recounted. “She had to wear a cast, and there was another surgery to remove the pin.”
She added, “You might think that after going through all of that at seven years old, she wouldn’t want to do it anymore. However, a year after the pin was removed, we started riding horses again. Just the gentle Western kind. Riding on the beach made it feel easy.”
Despite the frightening injury, Vivian remains an enthusiastic horse rider. In fact, Bundchen recently acquired a property with horses and ample space for riding.
In times like these, having someone to lean on is crucial, and Tom and Gisele were very much on the same page during this challenging period.
