Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady were once one of the most prominent couples in the worlds of sports and entertainment, and their divorce in October 2022 left many fans stunned. The separation marked the end of a high-profile relationship that had spanned over a decade, and both Bundchen and Brady have since moved forward with their individual lives.
Since their divorce, both Gisele and Tom have taken different paths. Brady has transitioned into a new career as an NFL broadcaster, signing a major deal with FOX, and also secured an ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders.
This new chapter has kept him in the sports industry but in a different role, far removed from his days as a player.
Despite the end of their marriage, Brady and Bundchen have found a way to co-parent their two children effectively, focusing on providing a stable environment for them.
However, it has been reported that Bundchen feels that she is in a much better place since leaving the seven-time Super Bowl champion, with a renewed sense of happiness and fulfillment.
According to a source who spoke with Life & Style, Gisele Bundchen’s new relationship with Joaquim Valente has brought her a deep sense of peace.
The source revealed that Valente “has felt right to her from the beginning,” noting that “everything seemed easy and organic” in their relationship. Bundchen’s bond with Valente seems to be a refreshing change, allowing her to feel something she wasn’t sure she would ever experience again after her split from Brady.
“She wasn’t sure she would ever have feelings like this again, and to have it happen so soon after her toxic divorce was a surprise,” the source shared, emphasizing the emotional rejuvenation Bundchen has felt in this new chapter of her life.

Most notably, the source mentioned that “Gisele finally feels seen,” implying that this was not always the case during her 13-year marriage with Tom Brady. This newfound sense of being understood and appreciated appears to be a significant factor in her happiness with Valente.
Currently, Bundchen is reportedly pregnant, and the source suggests that she has long-term plans with Valente. According to the insider, Bundchen intends to marry Valente after the baby is born, solidifying their commitment to each other. The source also added, “Friends are saying she calls Joaquim her soulmate,” highlighting just how deeply she feels about her new partner.
Meanwhile, Tom Brady appears to be fully immersed in his new broadcasting career. His first season as an NFL commentator has received mixed reviews, with some fans praising his insights while others feel he still has room for improvement.
However, Brady remains undeterred and focused on improving his craft as he gains more experience in the broadcast booth. In addition to his weekly commentary duties, Brady is also set to call the biggest game of the year—the Super Bowl. FOX, where Brady works as a broadcaster, will have the broadcasting rights for the Super Bowl, a setting that is all too familiar for the legendary quarterback.
Brady’s new venture as a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders also keeps him tied to the NFL, albeit in a different capacity. While the Raiders are unlikely to make an appearance in this year’s Super Bowl, Brady will still have a vested interest in the game, representing the team as a proud part-owner when February rolls around.
As for Gisele Bundchen, her focus seems to be on her growing family and her blossoming relationship with Valente.
While the future remains uncertain, it is clear that Bundchen and Valente are building a life together that brings her joy, and their plans to marry after the arrival of their child only underscore the seriousness of their relationship. It seems that both Gisele and Tom have moved on and found happiness in their respective paths, with their children being the key link that still connects them.
For those interested in Brady’s post-playing career, he will be seen and heard calling this Sunday’s NFL game on FOX at 1 PM ET, featuring a matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
It will be a familiar sight for fans, but this time, Brady will be in the broadcast booth rather than on the field.
