Supermodel Gisele Bündchen has married longtime partner Joaquim Valente in an intimate ceremony at their Florida home, confirming their relationship status just months after welcoming their first child together.
The Wedding Details
Gisele Bündchen and Joaquim Valente exchanged vows earlier this month in a small, private ceremony at their Surfside, Florida residence. The marriage license confirms the couple obtained legal documentation on December 1st and officially married on December 3rd, 2025.
Contrary to initial reports suggesting a secret wedding, sources close to the couple confirm this was a deliberate choice for privacy rather than secrecy. Close family members and friends were aware of the wedding plans, reflecting the couple’s preference for intimacy over spectacle.
A Year of Major Milestones
2025 has been transformative for Bündchen and Valente, marking both the birth of their first child together and now their marriage. The supermodel gave birth to their baby boy in February, as first reported by TMZ.
This marriage represents Bündchen’s second trip down the aisle, following her highly publicized 13-year marriage to NFL legend Tom Brady. The former couple shares two children: son Benjamin and daughter Vivian. While Brady was notified about Bündchen’s pregnancy earlier this year, it remains unclear whether he received advance notice of her wedding plans.
The Relationship Timeline
Bündchen and Valente’s relationship began developing shortly after her divorce from Brady was finalized in October 2022. The jiu-jitsu instructor first appeared publicly with Bündchen during a family trip to Costa Rica in November 2022, signaling the beginning of their romantic involvement.
Valente, part of the renowned Valente Brothers jiu-jitsu family, has maintained a relatively low profile throughout the relationship. His connection to Bündchen initially stemmed from his role as a martial arts instructor to her children, which gradually evolved into a romantic partnership.
Why This Wedding Matters
The marriage signifies Bündchen’s full transition into her post-Brady life, establishing a stable family unit with Valente. Unlike her first wedding, which was a media spectacle covered extensively worldwide, this ceremony reflects Bündchen’s current priorities: privacy, family, and personal contentment.
For Valente, the marriage solidifies his position not just as Bündchen’s partner but as a central figure in her children’s lives. The timing—coming after the birth of their child—suggests a carefully planned approach to building their family foundation.
The couple’s decision to marry in Florida rather than pursuing a destination wedding aligns with their established pattern of keeping major life events within their closest circle. This approach contrasts sharply with the celebrity norm of elaborate, publicized weddings.
What’s Next for the Couple
With marriage and parenthood now established, industry observers anticipate Bündchen may gradually return to her modeling career, though likely with a reduced schedule that prioritizes family time. Valente continues to operate his martial arts academies while supporting Bündchen’s career and their growing family.
The couple’s approach to blending their family—including Bündchen’s children with Brady—appears to be working successfully, with sources indicating a harmonious household dynamic. Their continued residence in Florida provides stability for the children while allowing both parents to pursue their professional interests.
