Gisele Bündchen has recently been seen in Miami, spending quality time with her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, a jiu-jitsu instructor. This meetup happened just days after she denied rumors of having an affair with Valente while still being in a marital relationship with Tom Brady, the celebrated footballer.
During their day out in Miami, Bündchen and Valente were seen exiting the property under construction. Images captured by paparazzi showed the couple spending quality time together, further fueling rumors about their relationship status.
For the casual day out, Bündchen chose a relaxed ensemble. She wore a pair of loose-fitting jeans with a beige button-down shirt tucked in. Adding a touch of luxury to her casual look, she carried a distressed YSL bag and wore a pair of brown slides. To complete her look, she pulled her highlighted hair back into a loose bun and appeared to be without any makeup.
Valente, on the other hand, went for sporty attire. He wore black shorts, a matching black t-shirt, and completed his look with a pair of gray trainers.
The Miami day out occurred a week after Bündchen publicly addressed her relationship with Valente for the first time. When questioned about rumors of her dating Valente before her divorce with Brady in October 2022, she firmly denied them in a New York Times interview.
“That’s a lie,” she said directly.
Bündchen expressed her disappointment over how women often bear the brunt of blame when they leave an unhealthy relationship. She empathized with those who face criticism from their communities and families, asserting that her situation is only amplified due to her public persona.
According to reports, Bündchen and Valente initially met in December 2021 but only began dating in mid-2023. By February 2024, a close source confirmed to Page Six that they were deeply in love.
In the past, Bündchen has been very discreet about her relationship with the jiu-jitsu expert. In a 2023 interview with Vanity Fair, she dismissed dating rumors, describing Valente as a trustworthy person and an admired teacher.
The Brazilian beauty ended her relationship with her ex-husband, Tom Brady, in late 2022. She has two children with Brady, son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11. Subsequently, she denied allegations of cheating on Brady.
