While it was recently revealed that she's set to retire from the modelling world next month, Gisele Bundchen still appears keen to show why she's long been a dominant force in the field.
The Brazilian beauty, 34, gave her 4.3 million Instagram followers a treat when she uploaded a shot of herself leaping while wearing a white string bikini on a beach on Wednesday.
With the muscles in her arms, legs and abs rippling as she jumped, the star's dogs are seen relaxing along the perimeter of a heart drawn into the sand, containing the word 'grateful'. In a message written in both English and her native tongue of Portuguese, she said: 'Thank you to all my dear fans who dedicate their time to leave a message here. 'Thank you for all the love. A kiss in your heart and have a beautiful day!!!!'$
Last week, it was reportedly Brazilian news website Estadao that the mother-of-two, who is married to NFL quarterback Tom Brady, is set to retire from the runway after next month's São Paulo Fashion Week.
According to the website's sources, it has always been Gisele's dream to finish her catwalk career in her native Brazil, which is where her fashion career first began all those years ago.
Gisele has certainly dedicated much of her fashion focus to helping boost the profile of the São Paulo-based style event in recent years, most frequently walking for native brand Colcci.
However, while Gisele has remained dedicated to boosting the profile of designers in her home country, the supermodel has been cutting down on her catwalk-based work in recent years.
Her most notable recent runway appearance was during Chanel's 'feminist protest' catwalk show in Paris in September last year, when she walked alongside the likes of Kendall Jenner, Cara Delevingne and Gigi Hadid.
It certainly doesn't look like the stunning supermodel will be short of work when she retires; in recent months, Gisele has fronted a number of high profile campaigns including, to name but a few, Chanel No. 5 and Under Armour.
Gisele also spent many years strutting her stuff as a Victoria's Secret Angel at the lingerie giant's annual fashion shows.
The leggy beauty made her debut on the runway for the American underwear label in 1999, and went on to make more than eight catwalk appearances as a Victoria's Secret Angel.
She was even given the honor of wearing the brand's iconic Fantasy Bra on two occasions, in 2000 and 2005.
Although Gisele has not yet commented on the reports about her alleged retirement, many industry insiders are already speculating that her decision to take a step back from the catwalk has been motivated by her desire to spend more time at home with her husband and two children.
