When news of Brady's reaction to his ex-wife's new baby surfaced online, fans had varied responses. One skeptical individual remarked, “What else is he going to say? Saving face."
Another kept it brief and surprised, simply writing, “Well, that was quick…” One fan took a neutral stance on Brady’s reaction, stating, “He’s happy for her and wishes her nothing but the best.”

Others reflected on how both individuals have moved forward. "People move on. They both seem content. They have beautiful children; congratulations to her and her boyfriend on their new baby," one comment read. Another added, "I'm sure they both lead fulfilling lives and even communicate occasionally."
Still, some couldn't resist speculating about Brady’s true emotions. “As he's crying in the shower 😂” one fan joked, while another suggested, “I'm sure it affects him in some way.”

One person pointedly recalled, "He gave up his wife and kids to play another year of football. Happy she'' moved on and he's still sulking in his misery." Meanwhile, one staunch supporter of Brady had a different take, simply stating, “It's her loss.”
Bündchen shares son Benjamin, 15, and daughter Vivian, 12, with Brady, whom she was married to from 2009 to 2022. She also referred to herself as a "bonus" mom to Brady’s 17-year-old son, Jack, from his previous relationship with Bridget Moynahan.

After parting ways with Brady, Bündchen began a fresh chapter with someone outside the limelight. Although rumors circulated that she might have been unfaithful to Brady with her current partner, the couple has continued to progress, and they have now welcomed their first child together.
Bundchen and Brady first crossed paths in 2006 and tied the knot three years later in 2009, starting a family with Benjamin and Vivian. Though Bundchen had already achieved professional success by age 26, she felt ready to embrace family life.

However, tensions arose in their marriage as Brady's career continued to demand more than family time. In 2020, Brady admitted that Bundchen felt he wasn't contributing enough to the family, feeling neglected as he prioritized football.
After initially retiring in 2022, the former quarterback's choice to return to the NFL reportedly left Bundchen feeling "frustrated" and "hurt," with sources noting that she desired more family time.

By October 2022, after 13 years of marriage, they officially filed for divorce. The former couple finalized custody and property agreements, concluding their marriage.

Over a year later, in June 2023, Bundchen started dating fitness trainer Valente, with a source confirming their relationship in February 2024. "[...] They're taking it slow. They began as close friends. She's very private about this and wanted to keep it quiet while they got to know each other," the insider added.
Although rumors hinted at a longer history, insiders clarified that they met in December 2021. The supermodel first addressed speculations about Valente in March 2023, expressing her gratitude for him and his brothers, Pedro and Gui, who run a self-defense training program.

"I'm so grateful to know all of them, because not only have they helped me and helped my kids, but they have become great friends, and Joaquim especially," said the mother of three.
"He's our teacher and, most importantly, he's a person that I admire and that I trust. It's so good to have that kind of energy, to have my kids around that type of energy," Bundchen continued.

She and Valente were first spotted together in Costa Rica in November 2022, though she initially denied any romance. Their friendship eventually evolved into a relationship as he provided "huge comfort” for the fashion model amid her divorce, said a source.
However, their romance sparked rumors of infidelity on her part following her split from Brady. Bundchen dismissed the accusations, calling them "a lie" and highlighting the unfair scrutiny women often endure when leaving "unhealthy" relationships.

Nearly 18 months post-divorce, she confirmed she is seeing someone, noting, "This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first. It's very different. It is very honest, and it's very transparent."
Valente, who, like Bundchen, hails from Brazil and holds a criminology degree, shares many commonalities with her. An insider described him as "down to earth, kind, and inspiring," adding that dating Valente has felt natural for Bundchen, who was initially hesitant to enter a new relationship.

The two share a passion for Miami, travel, and healthy living, with the source noting, "Joaquim is perfect for her." Bundchen is reportedly in a great place and thoroughly enjoying this new phase of her life.
In June 2024, the affectionate pair were seen together in Surfside, Florida, sparking curiosity amid rumors of a breakup. The two, dressed casually, appeared cozy as they walked their dogs, with Bundchen's arm around Valente.

A fashion insider shared that the Brazilian native has been thriving since her separation from Brady, feeling "secure and happy." Reports suggest tension arose after a Netflix roast of Brady, which left Bundchen "deeply disappointed" by its portrayal of her family. It reportedly added stress to her relationship with Valente.
However, just a few months later, in October 2024, exciting news emerged. Reports revealed that Bundchen and Valente are expecting their first child together, her third.
A source shared, "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."
That same day, Bundchen, now 44, was spotted in Miami with her German Shepherd, Alfie, dressed casually in a black cap, t-shirt, shorts, and white sneakers.

Wanting to ensure her family was informed personally, Bundchen reportedly shared the news directly with her ex-husband, Brady, and their two children before it reached the media.
Sources revealed that the celebrity, sensitive to the potential impact, preferred Brady to hear it directly from her, ensuring openness within the family during this new chapter.
Moreover, recently, Bundchen and Valente enjoyed a lunch outing in Miami with her kids. The public figure dressed in a flowy beige top and cap, subtly covering her bump with a large tan handbag, while Valente kept it casual in a black T-shirt and shorts.
