And I want him to be happy. And if that makes him happy,  and he loves to do that, then I'm always gonna support him like I've always have. So I want him to be happy and fulfilled. So --

Charlie Rose: You've changed him, and he's changed you.

Bündchen: Yeah. I think that's what we've done. You know, we -- I think relationships kind of, like, that's -- we do most of our growing in relationships because we really kind of, like, they see all of us, right? All the sides of us.
