The Brazilian supermodel made a comeback on the runway at the age of 43, showing off her “slim” body transformation for the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
Adriana Lima’s appearance at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on October 15, 2024, was one of the best moments of the night. After retiring in 2018, after nearly 20 years with the lingerie brand, and having her third child in 2022, she amazed the crowd with her new look, which fans quickly noticed and praised.
Lima first shared her retirement in 2018 at the age of 37. In an Instagram post, which she has since deleted, she reflected on her long time with the brand. “Dear Victoria, thank you for showing me the world, sharing your secrets, and most importantly not just giving me wings but teaching me to fly,” she wrote.
When talking about her last walk, Lima told People, “This has been my 18th fashion show, and I am still as excited as I was from the first day. I think this year is going to be the highlight of my career.”
After leaving modeling, she was only seen at some events and on social media. In a TikTok video from February 2022, Lima shared that she was pregnant with her third child, her first with partner Andre Lemmers.
By April, the couple released a gender reveal video, announcing that a boy would join Lima’s daughters from her previous marriage, Valentina and Sienna. Her son, Cyan, was born in August 2022.
During her pregnancy, the retired supermodel looked amazing in stylish maternity outfits at important events, like the 75th Cannes Film Festival in May 2022. Wearing a mustard gown from Nicolas Jebran, she proudly showed off her baby bump on the red carpet, and while she looked great, it was different from her usual slimmer figure.
Fast forward to 2023, Lima attended the Venice International Film Festival in a Pinko gown with a plunging neckline and gold accents. At this event, her fuller face and body were still noticeable.
A few months later, the supermodel went to the Mon Cheri Barbara Tag event in Munich, Germany, in December 2023. She wore a form-fitting gray gown by Donna Karan and looked like she was losing her previous weight.
However, her October 2024 runway appearance showed her full transformation. During the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Brooklyn, Lima wowed the crowd not just with her outfits but also with her youthful appearance. A backstage photo captured her glowing skin and tight facial features.
Once ready, Lima hit the runway wearing a checker-striped outfit with a black bra and high-waisted pants, topped with a long-sleeved cut-out top for her first look. Her grunge-style angel wings added a cool touch to the outfit.
For her second appearance, she wore a red lace nightie with sparkling wings that showcased her renewed energy. This moment reminded everyone of her younger days as an angel for the brand, and fans quickly expressed their admiration for her physical change on social media.
One fan said, “She’s lost so much weight. She’s back .” Another wrote, “SHE LOOKS GREAT HER SLIM BODY IS BACK. GREAT JOB. I LIKE THIS OUTFIT TOO.”
Kiya Cole, the mother of actress Skai Jackson, added, “She worked hard in the gym this past year! I was a witness. No quick fix for her!” Another commenter expressed, “She is back with a vengeance, love her.”
Fans were also happy to see the show featuring a variety of healthier bodies, like Lima’s. One commented, “These bodies look healthier, and I like that, in different sizes but healthy, good for VS.”
A Man Must Make a Tough Choice: His Girlfriend or His Dog?
Moving in together is a big step in any relationship, but what happens if problems arise right away? One man found himself in a difficult predicament when his sweetheart gave him an ultimatum: it was either her or his pet beagle, Molly.
The only problem was that, although he genuinely cared for her and wanted to be with her, his fiancée hated his cute dog. She hated Molly so much that she forced him to decide between saying goodbye to her and giving up the puppy.
Rather than give up, the man decided to post on Craigslist about his predicament in the hopes of finding advice and perhaps even a new home for Molly. He stated in his article, “My girlfriend does not like my beagle Molly.” That means I have to find her a new home.
He went on to highlight Molly’s purebred ancestry and their four years of togetherness as he continued to describe her qualities. Despite her lack of training, he claimed she is enjoyable to be around and likes playing games. Although Molly loves to be spoiled, she does require some upkeep, especially for her long hair and nails.
The man also mentioned some of Molly’s less glamorous habits, such as her tendency to sleep throughout the day while he’s at work and yap all night. But he made it plain that Molly always brings him happiness and that she only ever eats the best, most expensive food.
However, the end of his post took a surprising turn. He quietly revealed his true motives by adding, “So… anyone interested in my 30-year-old, selfish, wicked, gold-digging girlfriend?,” rather than searching for Molly to move in with a new family. Come get her! I really want her to find a new home as quickly as possible, and so does my dog!
This unanticipated turn of events showed the man how committed he is to his loyal companion Molly. By lying to the readers, he quietly let them know that he didn’t respect his girlfriend’s ultimatum. Who, after all, makes someone choose between their cherished pet and a loving partner? Some others claim that his girlfriend got exactly what she deserved.
This story is a heartfelt reminder of the intimate bond that individuals have with their dogs. It’s hard to put into words how much dogs like Molly make our lives happier with their steadfast love and company. Urging someone to give up their animal companion may be extremely painful since animals become a part of our family.
Let’s give this man credit for acting morally and standing up for his loyal friend. With her tail wagging, Molly is a nice puppy who needs love and attention. Perhaps in the future, the man will come across someone who values Molly as a member of their family instead of just accepting her.
Let’s share this charming and funny story with our friends and family to honor the bond that exists between people and their beloved dogs. After all, we can all learn something from this man’s brave choice.
