This year in October, it would be two years since the hottest NFL couple, Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen’s divorce finalized. Though the NFL legend’s dating rumors began way back in May, last year. It wasn’t until February 2024 that the dating rumors of his former wife gained the day of light. 

After 13 years of marriage, Bundchen and Brady went through a messy divorce, which she even refers to as the ‘darkest period of her life.’ But with the new year, the former Victoria’s Secret model has entered a new phase of her life, which is spending quality time with her loved ones. Interestingly, a new name was added to the list of her loved ones–Joaquim Valente, whom she is rumored to be dating since June 2023.

Throughout their marriage, the former New England Patriots quarterback was at the peak of his career, which obviously means his personal life was also constantly in the limelight. In fact, the two had a highly published divorce, having every little bit of detail flashed on the headlines. Bundchen doesn’t want that to happen to a new relationship with her jiu-jitsu instructor, especially since her children are also involved.

A source close to InTouch revealed the supermodel wants her relationship with Valente more private, unlike her former relationship with Brady, saying she “wants to keep her personal life private.”

Gisele’s so grateful for Joaquim. They’ve been practically inseparable. He makes her feel happy and sexy and alive, and she’s having fun with him.

Gisele Bundchen reflects on life after divorce

Just recently, the NFL legend’s former wife opened up about her life post-divorce and the necessary changes she made to get through the toughest phase of her life, in an interview with the Wall Street Journal. 

To live in a state of gratitude is like a protection in your life. We can look at things like, why is this happening to me?

She referred to it as the most challenging period of her life but it also taught her how strong she was– something Bundchen never realised earlier. But she took it as an experience and sure learned a lot from it. 

Despite the messy divorce, the former celebrity couple managed to find a peaceful ground for the sake of their children. As they co-parent their children, they try to shield them from the nasty side of fame.
