Tom Brady's Ex-Wife Gisele Bündchen Gets Married 3 Years After Their Divorce

This marks the 45-year-old supermodel and activist's second marriage, three years after her divorce from former football quarterback.

Gisele Bündchen has taken the next step in her personal life, quietly marrying Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente in a private ceremony at their Surfside, Florida home.

The wedding comes nearly three years after her high-profile split from former National Football League (NFL) star Tom Brady.

TMZ confirmed the couple wed on December 3, 2025, just two days after receiving their marriage license on December 1. The ceremony was small and intimate, attended only by close friends and family.

Though the couple kept the celebration off social media and didn't make a public announcement, sources reportedly said it wasn’t a "secret" wedding. Close friends and family were aware of their plans.

News of the wedding sparked mixed reactions online. One person commented, "She married now to down to earth guy with kind eyes,who fathered her new born baby , originally from her own native country .Good choice ,perfect fit ! One thing ,hopefully, there is a iron clad prenuptial agreement, just in case [sic]."

Another wrote, "Well he's no tom Brady but ok [sic]." A different commenter said, "He's more handsome than tom Brady . And prob more pleasant to live with . Congrats to both [sic]!" And one added simply, "Way better choice in my opinion😍."

A fourth criticized the situation, saying it shows a lack of respect towards Brady. Another suggested that Gisele is clearly thriving and enjoying her life now that she's no longer with the former athlete.

A short comment dismissed Valente as a step down from Brady, implying a negative comparison. One person argued that relationships are about emotional connection, not physical appearance or wealth.

Another observed that Bündchen seems happier since her divorce, adding that she made the right choice by leaving someone who no longer wanted her.

While online reactions were divided, those close to Bündchen say the wedding marked a deeply personal moment in her life. A source shared that she didn't feel the need to share the ceremony beyond her family circle, and that the intimate setting reflected her current values.

"After the baby was born, it felt natural to get married. It wasn't about outside pressure, or expectations. It was something she wanted for personal reasons and for her family. She's very, very happy," the insider explained.

Those close to the supermodel say her new life in Florida has become a sanctuary of calm. Bündchen is reportedly focused on home, wellness, and raising her children in a peaceful environment. She shares two older children, Benjamin Rein and Vivian Lake, with Brady.

Valente is said to be in sync with this slower, more grounded pace. Friends note that the couple were close long before romance entered the picture. The connection, they say, grew naturally over time.

Tom Brady Posts Hoodie and Football Snaps After Wedding News Breaks

Shortly after news of the wedding broke, Bündchen's ex-husband Brady posted two Instagram Stories.

In the first image, he appeared to be sitting in a car wearing a white hoodie with the phrase "Forever Young" printed on it. The Story was set to the song "1-800-273-8255" by Logic, featuring Alessia Cara and Khalid. Brady added the caption: "Yupppppp 💯."

In the second photo, Brady was shown outdoors on a grassy field, dressed in black athletic gear and holding a football. He tagged the brand Nobull and wrote "LFG" in bold white letters across the image.

Tom Brady and Bündchen finalized their divorce in 2022, following 13 years of marriage. Shortly after the split, Bündchen was seen spending time with Valente.

In late 2022, Valente joined her and her children on a trip to Costa Rica, sparking speculation about their relationship. In February 2025, the couple welcomed a baby boy together.

Bündchen and Valente have since built a life together out of the spotlight, balancing parenthood and privacy while continuing to quietly grow their relationship.
