Gisele Bündchen displays her figure in denim hot pants as she shares her plans to return to fashion

She’s known for storming the runways of some of fashion’s biggest brands, including Victoria’s Secret, Valentino and Christian Dior.

And Gisele Bündchen once again showed off her model credentials as she worked her camera magic for Elle Magazine’s October Issue – sporting a pair of denim hot pants as she went full-throttle biker chic.

The mother-of-three, 42, also detailed her juggle between family life and work, explaining: ‘ I’m a mommy and I can still be sexy.’

Posing for a slew of snaps during the Hamptons shoot, the supermodel added a white crop top and a patterned biker jacket on top of her shorts for one look.

Another showed the beauty clad in leather as she took to the open road on a motorbike – with dark leather trou

sers and a matching jacket.

Gisele’s golden locks were styled in a gorgeous curl as they fell towards one side, with the beauty striking a slew of poses as she draped herself over the bike.

Chatting to the publication, Gisele explained how she stays ‘sexy’ while being a mother and wife.

The fashion icon shares children Vivian Lake, nine, and Benjamin, 12, with her husband Tom Brady, while he also has a 14-year-old son named John Edward with ex Bridget Moynahan.

And after turning away from the catwalk to focus on being family, nature and mindfulness – the star explained the blend between this and her model lifestyle, telling Elle: ‘I never enjoy being put in a box because I think we can be anything we want to be. We have so many different sides to us. 

‘I feel very lucky I get to do that in my job, and I get to wear all these different hats and experience all these different aspects of myself.

Hoping to inspire other women too, she continued: ‘Let’s go, ‘I’m a mommy and I can still be sexy. Let’s do this.’

The star stepped down from major fashion jobs to spend time with her children, explaining that she is ‘fulfilled’ by being a mother and wife.

But gearing up to get her career back out there after years on the backburner, Gisele explained that it’s ‘my turn’ now – after years of supporting her husband’s career progression.

NFL player Tom made the U-turn decision to un-retire, returning to team Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the current season just 40 days after he announced his retirement.

But as it looks like the sportsman will be stepping down after this season, Gisele is taking the time to reignite her modelling career. 

‘I’ve done my part, which is [to] be there for [Tom]. I moved to Boston, and I focused on creating a cocoon and a loving environment for my children to grow up in and to be there supporting him and his dreams.

‘Seeing my children succeed and become the beautiful little humans that they are, seeing him succeed, and being fulfilled in his career—it makes me happy. At this point in my life, I feel like I’ve done a good job on that.’

Further explaining: ‘I have a huge list of things that I have to do, that I want to do. At 42, I feel more connected with my purpose.’

As Tom decided to rejoin the NFL for one more stint, rumours of tension between the couple began to circulate – with his wife noticeably absent from the first game of the season.

The pair wed in 2008, but have been hit by a wave of divorce claims recently – with Gisele allegedly living away from their home in Tampa, Florida. 

Admitting that she would ‘like him to be more present’ during the open interview, the model appeared to dismiss divorce rumours by continuing that she wanted him to be happy and ‘live his joy’.
