In a video shared to Victoria’s Secret’s Instagram page, the model, 43, announced that she would be returning to the fashion show in a fun way. In the clip, Lima gets into a taxi cab, and tells the driver “I’m going home.”

The driver then says he doesn’t know where she lives, and Lima apologizes. “Can you drop me off at theVictoria’s Secretshow?” she asks, before facing the camera, announcing, “I’m back!”

“Hey, we’ve been keeping a secret, but we just can’t do it anymore!,” the video’s caption read.

“@adrianalima is returning to the runway—phew, it’s out there, we feel SO much better. Tomorrow, livestream the Pink Carpet at 6:30PM ET and the show at 7PM ET on Prime Video or our YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram. Busy then?

“I think this year is going to be the highlight of my career,” Lima said. “This has been my 18th fashion show and I am still as excited as I was from the first day. I always love to be on runways and being part of the Victoria’s Secret show. It’s my favorite to do.”

Lima attended aVictoria’s Secret event promoting their feature filmThe Tourin September 2023, which marked a new era for the brand. The film focused on “emerging global trailblazers from a range of artistic disciplines, creating on their own terms,” according to the brand. She told PEOPLE about the positive changes made at the time.

“I feel that as a woman, and still being in fashion — I’m 42 years old and a mom with five kids, so I feel that I’m still being celebrated in this stage of my life,” she said. “It’s great to see that no matter what stage you are [in life], for my kids and the new models coming up, it’s uplifting," she added at the time.
