Supermodel Gisele Bündchen is among the top models in the world. She earned a lot of fame with her talent. However, Gisele grabbed even more attention when she began dating NFL legend Tom Brady. The 43-year-old model stayed in the limelight, throughout the time she was with Brady. However, she continues to grab attention even after their divorce, and now she’s making headlines with her recent Instagram story.
Born in July 1980, Gisele Bündchen has reportedly become a purple belt in jiu-jitsu. She took to Instagram to share this news with her fans. The Brazilian beauty posted a series of stories, including a video of her getting the purple belt. However, it was the name of the Valente brothers that caught everyone’s attention.
“I’m now a purple belt in jiu-jitsu!!! Thank you @valentebrother,” she wrote. In her second story, Gisele even posted a picture of the three Valente brothers. The picture included Joaquim Valente as well. She congratulated the brothers on completing 30 years. “Congratulations @valentebrothers on 30 years! Your discipline and values are inspiring,” she wrote.
It’s worth noting that Gisele Bündchen is reportedly dating Joaquim Valente. He is one of the 3 brothers who teach jiu-jitsu at their academy. With them, she has come a long way in jiu-jitsu and has now become a purple belt.
How did Gisele Bündchen meet Joaquim Valente?
Gisele Bündchen and Joaquim Valente met for the first time before her divorce from Tom Brady. The duo reportedly crossed paths when the model admitted her son to the martial arts classes of the Valente brothers. After that, she herself began taking jiu-jitsu classes at their academy in December 2021.
The Ex-wife of the NFL legend made headlines with Joaquim for the first time in February 2022. It happened after she posted a video of her training session at the academy, thanking Joaquim and his brothers. “Awesome teachers,” she wrote at that time.
The media captured Gisele Bündchen and the jiu-jitsu instructor together for the first time in November 2022. It was only 2 weeks after her divorce from the New England Patriots star. She went to Provincia de Puntarenas at that time along with her kids, their school teacher, and Joaquim.
