Inside ‘happy’ Gisele Bündchen’s affectionate date night with boyfriend Joaquim Valente
Gisele Bündchen didn’t shy away from showing PDA with her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, during a sweet date night in Miami, an insider tells Page Six exclusively.
The Brazilian supermodel, 43, and the jiu-jitsu instructor, 36, were joined by a few friends as they dined at Mediterranean hotspot Aba Miami on Sunday.
“She seemed happy during her dinner and affectionately put her arm around her boyfriend a few times,” the source tells us.

We’re told Bündchen “affectionately” put her arm around her boyfriend during the meal.
The insider adds that Bündchen took the lead with the menu and ordered for the table.
We’re told the lovebirds dined on delectable appetizers including crispy short rib hummus, Caesar salad and crispy potatoes.
“She was recognized by a few guests but wasn’t approached by anyone and was able to enjoy her meal with her friends,” our source says.

Just one day prior, the couple was spotted enjoying a day out in the coastal Florida city as they inspected Bündchen’s new property, which is under construction.
They were seen keeping close as they made their way through the worksite.
Bündchen — who shares son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11, with her ex-husband, Tom Brady — claimed in an interview last week that she had not cheated on the former NFL star with Valente.

When the New York Times asked her whether she had started dating her new beau before her October 2022 divorce from Brady, she replied, “That’s a lie.”
“This is something that happens to a lot of women who get blamed when they have the courage to leave an unhealthy relationship and are labeled as being unfaithful,” Bündchen continued. “They have to deal with their communities. They have to deal with their family. Of course for me, it just happens to be a little bit amplified.”

She explained that no one can really know what happens in someone’s relationship except the people in it.

The current pair met in December 2021, and while they sparked romance rumors after several public outings together beginning in November 2022, Bündchen initially shut down the gossip.
“He’s our teacher and, most importantly, he’s a person that I admire and that I trust,” she told Vanity Fair in March 2023. “It’s so good to have that kind of energy, to have my kids around that type of energy.”
But their friendship eventually turned into a romance, with sources telling Page Six they started dating in June 2023. This February, an insider close to the duo confirmed to us that they are “deeply in love.”

Bündchen — who has continued being a stepmother figure to Brady’s 16-year-old son, Jack, with his ex-partner Bridget Moynahan — has called her divorce painful and difficult.
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel and Brady, 46, famously ended their 13-year marriage after Page Six broke the news that they had an “epic fight” over his decision to briefly unretire from football.
Since their split, the athlete has been playing the field and enjoying single life. He also has been dating Irina Shayk on and off since last June.
