And did we mention she gave birth to two kids while juggling her professional life? As she gets older, Ambrosio has embraced her age and the ways the modeling world has changed.
“I think I’ve developed an inner confidence. I didn’t expect modelling to last, but here I am still doing it and loving it. So, that has made me feel that I can embrace my look at every stage of my life,” she told
Harper’s Bazaar when asked about her body, appearance and style changing through the decades since entering the industry.
Despite those changes, Ambrosio still lives in a bikini and spoke to
Forbes about creating her own swimsuit line
GAL Floripa.
“Well I think for me, it’s trying to do things like from when I started modeling – I wanted to do things that make me happy. I’m not going to promote or create something that I don’t identify with,” she said. “And being from Brazil, I grew up in a swimsuit, so that’s what I like to do, and that’s what I like to create.”
Lucky for us, she posts a ton of those bikini shots to her Instagram. Check out some of her hottest IG pictures below.
