Gisele Bündchen causes a riot after being spotted with another man
Bündchen and her children took a vacation to Costa Rica accompanied by a few others. The interesting individual they were spotted with was Joaquim Valente, a longtime friend and trainer. After their vacation, the former Victoria’s Secret model stopped by her and her ex-husband Tom Brady’s New York City townhouse before she headed to the airport. Her vacation in Costa Rica sent fans speculating about the nature of her relationship with Valente. The latter has trained Bündchen and her children in Jiu-jitsu. Bündchen has previously posted a video of the two of them training.
The model commented that taking up Jiu-jitsu has made her feel stronger, more confident and empowered. She captioned the video
saying, “I believe the more tools we have in our toolbox the better. I feel stronger, more confidence [sic] and empowered since I started practicing self-defense. I feel it’s an important skill for all, but specially for us women. .” Although media outlets have confirmed from sources close to the model that Valente and Bündchen were just friends, that has not stopped fans from making their own assumptions.ADVERTISEMENT

Brady and Bündchen end their 13-year-old marriage
On October 28, Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen announced the finalization of their divorce. The couple had been married for 13 years.

The former couple is parents to a son, Benjamin and a daughter, Vivian.

Even though many saw the divorce coming a mile away, fans continue to be inquisitive about the personal lives of these influential figures. That perhaps is an unfortunate consequence of being in the public eye.
