Tom Brady, one of the most notable NFL players, called off his 13-year-long marriage with Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bündchen, last month. Per reports, the famed Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback’s ex-wife might be in a relationship with her long-time Jiu-Jitsu instructor, Joaquim Valente. However, it isn’t confirmed.

Reportedly, the former Victoria’s Secret angel had a recent outing with Valente in Costa Rica. Bündchen and Brady’s kids were also spotted alongside them.

Brady and Bündchen, who got separated in the past month, had apparently planned or were planning their divorce from February 2022 itself. It was clear when Brady posted a comment, which showcased a bit of regret from him about parting ways with his wife.

After the divorce, the diva seemed to cherish some time with her kids in Costa Rica. And reports suggested her martial arts instructor was also there.

Gisele Bundchen previously lauded Valente publicly

This bond between the model and her jiu-jitsu trainer is not a new thing. Even in 2021, the 42-year-old model took part in a martial arts picture session for Dust magazine alongside the BJJ trainer and his brothers.

In February 2022, Gisele Bündchen wrote in a social media post about developing her self-defense.

“I feel stronger, more confidence and empowered since I started practicing self-defense. I feel it’s an important skill for all, but specially for us women.”

She also had a few words for the Valente Brothers, stating, “Thank you @ValenteBrothers for being awesome teachers and for making training so much fun…”

Brady had also shared a video of his ex-wife and mother of his children on his Instagram handle with a caption, “You never cease to amaze me”. Additionally, he joked about it in a now-deleted tweet saying, “My days of leaving dishes in the sink are numbered…”.

While the duo seemed inseparable, Brady’s tussle between spending time with his wife and staying in the sport he played his entire life seemed too hard on him and his better half.

Did Tom Brady actually want to divorce Gisele Bündchen?

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen, one of the most noted American power couples in the last decade, got married in 2009. The pair have two kids together, a daughter of nine years named Vivian and a son of 12 years named Benjamin.

Previously, Brady has talked highly of Bundchen. While there are many interviews where the star NFL quarterback had nothing but admiration for his ex-partner, on ‘SiriusXM’ podcast ‘Let’s Go’ he talked about how his “wife was his biggest supporter”.
