In early October 2026 domestic updates, sources confirmed that Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bündchen and jiu-jitsu master Joaquim Valente have established an exceptionally calm, grounded domestic rhythm in Surfside, Florida. Bündchen, 46, who finalized her high-profile divorce from NFL legend Tom Brady in late 2022, has integrated Valente into her holistic health and family lifestyle.

Valente, who originally trained Bündchen and her children in martial arts self-defense, brings a philosophy of physical discipline, mental presence, and quiet humility that directly supports Bündchen's wellness values. Partnering with someone whose profession is rooted in nervous-system regulation and physical respect has provided profound emotional restoration.

Close friends note that Bündchen feels deeply respected and emotionally safe, praising Valente's patience, gentle strength, and wonderful rapport with her children.
