Just days after rumors of Tom Brady dating Sports Illustrated supermodel Brooks Nader emerged, his ex-wife Gisele Bundchen has clapped back with a response of her own. Not a direct response to this but she has posted a picture of her Jiu-Jitsu trainer and boyfriend Joaquim Valente on her social media page for the first time since news of their relationship has been circulated.

Gisele Bundchen took a relaxing trip to the Bahia beach. The supermodel went along with her daughter Vivian, aged 11. Interestingly, amongst the many photos that she posted on her Instagram feed, one of them featured Joaquim Valente. After months of rumors and multiple pictures of them together in public, Gisele’s post has made it official that they are in a serious relationship.

Gisele posted images of her having fun with her daughter and her nieces on the beach. They made the most of the trip and indulged in activities such as playing with the sand, taking pictures in front of the natural beauty of the formations on the sands, and playing a game of beach volleyball.

In the image where all of them are enjoying a game of beach volleyball, Joaquim Valente can be spotted. Way to soft launch him to her followers!

Gisele Bundchen and Joaquim Valente nearly broke up after the roast of Tom Brady was released

The news of Gisele dating a new person for the first time after her divorce from Tom Brady emerged in March of 2024. She revealed the news via an interview with The New York Times. In this, the Brazilian supermodel admitted that “This was the first time (She) is seeing someone that was a friend of (hers) first.” She dismissed the notion that there was something romantic going on between her and Valente while she was married to Brady.

Joaquim Valente is a well-known expert in the art of Jiu-Jitsu, but it is a less-known fact that he has a criminology degree from Barry University. He is a man of many talents.

Bundchen has attempted to keep him as far away from the public spotlight as possible because he is a private person who does not enjoy being in the news. It was a rough time for their relationship after the roast of Tom Brady came out on Netflix. Valente was targeted by the celebrities and cited as the reason for Gisele breaking up with Brady.

Fortunately, the duo managed to work things out and they seem to be stronger than ever now. The timing of Gisele’s post does get one curious. After all, the news of Brady being romantically involved with a recently divorced Brooks Nader just emerged a few days earlier. While there are no concrete pictures to indicate that Brady and Nader have something going on between them, there is a possibility that the couple is keeping things under the radar for now.
