Gisele Bundchen has married Joaquim Valente.
The 45-year-old model and the Jiu-Jitsu instructor — who were first spotted together on vacation back in November 2022 — have tied the knot in a ceremony in Surfside, Florida.
The wedding ceremony took place on Dec 3, according to marriage records reviewed by People. However, the couple had managed to keep the news under wraps until now.
TMZ has reported that Gisele and Joaquim married at their home in a small ceremony.
The couple welcomed a baby boy together earlier this year, and a source preciously claimed that they were embracing a new chapter in their relationship.
The insider told People earlier this year: “Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life and they’re looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family.”
Gisele and Joaquim initially started out as friends but their relationship eventually took a romantic turn.
A source told People in 2024: “They started out as great friends first. She’s very private about this and wanted to keep it quiet while they got to know each other.”
Gisele already has son Benjamin, 15, and daughter Vivian, 12, from her relationship with with ex-husband Tom Brady. However, the celebrity couple announced their split back in 2022.
Tom wrote on Instagram at the time: “In recent days, my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage. We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together.
“We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the centre of our world in every way. We will continue to work together as parents to always ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve. (sic)”
Meanwhile, Gisele explained that the celebrity duo had simply “grown apart”.
The blonde beauty said: “The decision to end a marriage is never easy but we have grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always.”
