Gisele Bündchen talks about new romance and is accused of betrayal: learn more about the controversy
Model Gisele Bündchen, 43, revealed in an interview with The New York Times that she is in a new relationship. The relationship, according to the celebrity, is with someone who was already her friend, which makes the experience much more honest and transparent.
Although she hasn't revealed the name of her new partner, there is speculation that 35-year-old jiu-jitsu trainer Joaquim Valente could be the model's new affair. The two met in 2020, when Gisele and her children moved to Florida, in the United States, and Joaquim became the family's jiu-jitsu teacher.
Rumors of their romance began circulating in November 2022, shortly after Gisele and Tom Brady split up. The couple were spotted together in Costa Rica, during the model's vacation with her children, and have since been seen together on several occasions.
Sources close to the model told the Page Six news portal that Gisele and Joaquim are having an affair and no longer want to keep it a secret. According to the same sources, Gisele's children have already approved of their mother's new relationship.
Despite the happiness of her new romance, Gisele has been accused of cheating on Tom Brady, which would have led to the couple's divorce. The model vehemently denied the accusations and stressed that she doesn't want to turn her life into a tabloid. She also commented on the criticism she received after the end of her marriage, pointing out that people don't know the reality of a relationship apart from the two people involved.
Gisele and Tom Brady met in 2006 and married in 2009, having two children together. In October 2022, they announced their separation, claiming that they wanted different things. The model emphasized that the decision was taken by mutual agreement and that mutual respect remains.
Now, Gisele Bündchen is moving on with her new romance with Joaquim Valente and focusing on her family and career. The couple has been seen increasingly united and happy, showing that love can arise from the most sincere friendships.
