Gisele Bündchen is a Brazilian fashion model, actress, and producer. She is a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Environment Programme. She is 5′11″.

Her parents, Vânia Maria Nonnenmacher and Valdir Reinoldo Bündchen, are both of German ancestry. Bundchen was born and raised in Horizontina, a southern region in Brazil, where there is a large ethnic German community. She is a sixth-generation German Brazilian, with ancestry in Rhineland-Palatinate, Baden-Württemberg, Saarland, Hesse, and Alsace-Lorraine, France. Gisele has two children with her former husband, American professional football player Tom Brady.

Despite being of German origin, Gisele does not speak German. She stated that she learned German in third grade, but forgot it all. Her parents still speak German to their siblings.

Gisele’s paternal grandfather was Walter Bündchen (the son of Reinoldo/Reinaldo Bündchen and Elsa Irena Hauschildt). Walter was born on March 15, 1926, in Lajeado, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. He was Mayor of Horizontina, Rio Grande do Sul, from 1971 to 1975. Horizontina’s airport is named after him. Reinoldo was also born in Rio Grande do Sul, the son of Henrique/Heinrich Bündchen/Bünchen, whose parents were German, from Rheinland-Palatinate, and of Rosaline Schwambach, who was the daughter of Jakob/Jacob Schwambach/Schvambach and Margaretha/Margarida Walber. Gisele’s great-grandmother Elsa was born in Rio Grande do Sul, the daughter of Johann/Joahnn “João” Hauschildt/Hauschild and Karolina/Carolina Hermann/Herrmann, who were also of German descent.

Gisele’s paternal grandmother was Lucila Lückemeyer/Lückmeyer (the daughter of Vicente Lückmeyer and Emilia Horst). Lucila was born in Tuparendi, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Vicente was the son of German parents, Anton Lükemeier/Lückemeier, from North Rhine-Westphalia, and Guilhermina/Wilhelmine Emilie Friederike Borchardt, from Cochem-Zell. Emilia was likely also of German descent.

Gisele’s maternal grandfather was João Theobaldo Nonnenmacher (the son of Jacob Nonnenmacher and Elisabetha/Elisabeth Schneider). João was born in Santa Clara do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul. Jacob was the son of Domminick Nonnenmacher, who was from Rhineland-Palatinate, and of Margarida Krieger/Krüger, whose parents were German. Elisabetha was the daughter of João Schneider and Ana Maria Mallmann, who were both of German origin, with Ana being from Blantenrat.

Gisele’s maternal grandmother was Maria Kolling (the daughter of Francisco Antônio Kolling and Maria Bohn). Gisle’s grandmother Maria was born in Santa Clara do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul. Francisco was the son of Pedro Heberle Kolling and Ana Maria Kieling, both of whom were the children of German parents. Gisele’s great-grandmother Maria Bohn was the daughter of Bernardo Bohn and Maria Dresch, who were born in Germany.

    If she did a test my bet would be 80% European 10% native 10% African

      I did not say anywhere Pascal is “100% white man” (and why are you so worried about whiteness? Because obviously you are not white either, white people don’t care about that).
      You can make a good couple with the nutcase “Urimnak”.

      • myfellowwhitepeople says:

        lol I’m definitely not going to argue with you anymore I think you’re a South American who really wants to be White, but you’re not lol Besides, I’m on an ethnic website and I always try to find the mix of some people who don’t seem to be entirely white.
        You’ve lived on this site for at least 10 years, you don’t have a life, do you?

        • andrew says:

          I like to have conversations with nutcases like you after a busy day. Seriously, unless some in her family cheated, she is 100% German.

        • Blahby says:

          I know you’re not talking to me, but I’m South American and I completely agree. I saw a picture of her son and came on this site to check what it said. I agree she is not completely white. I think she is also Native (and to a smaller extent) African. Or maybe you’re correct and about the same for each ..she is Brazilian. I just don’t understand why they lie. White people who are not mixed have distinct appearances. When you see it, you know. I am forever rolling my eyes when they claim these people are completely European.

          • andrew says:

            Her son looks a bit weird/atypical though her grandparents/great-grandparents and so on are fairly well documented as German, so unless someone cheated…that’s it.

          • Urimnak says:

            ann-drew being a Hispanic who doesn’t accept to be ngroid fantasizes to be purely white and keeps going on to deny the reality about itself and the Bundchends.

      • myfellowwhitepeople says:

        once again stop quoting me

        • Urimnak says:

          ann-drew is Hispanic like you feeling Finn and other races don’t give it nationalities and ethnicities that cunt poc doesn’t has.
          Say to this sh!t she’s down(not in the English meaning) can’t undestand what it means hahaha. And tell to her she is going to do the end of Rosaria Lopez.
