In a post shared today, June 21, Bündchen wished her new husband a Happy Father's Day, accompanying the message with several photos of the fitness instructor holding their baby and spending time with his other children from his marriage to Brady.
The first photo shows Valente and Bündchen hugging the baby, who is strapped to the model's chest, posing barefoot on the beach against a backdrop of rainbows and lush mangrove swamps.
The model did a great job, accompanying the caption in both English and Portuguese with a thank you to her husband for his example and the values he embodies. Bündchen emphasized his positive qualities, such as "love, humility, honesty, discipline, kindness, and consistency.".
She praised him for being an incredible role model, noting that their entire family is grateful for his presence. Bündchen concluded her post by expressing gratitude to her father for his unconditional love, wisdom, and support at every stage of her life.
The model's last Father's Day greeting to Tom Brady was in 2022.
Bündchen extended her streak of not wishing Brady a Happy Father's Day for another year, making it four years since she last wished the football player a happy Father's Day.
In 2022, Bündchen dedicated a touching message to Brady, posting a photo on Instagram of Brady tenderly kissing their daughter Vivian on the cheek.
The model gushed about Brady's role as a father to their two children, Benjamin and Vivian, as well as his firstborn, Jack, from a previous marriage. Bündchen's post came just months before the couple finalized their divorce in 2022.
She also skipped all Father's Day posts in 2023 and 2025, choosing to dedicate her 2024 Father's Day post solely to their own father, Valdir Bündchen.
In 2026, Bündchen, as always, did not mention Brady in the Father's Day ceremony, completely omitting the NFL champion from her congratulations to Valente and her father.
Gisele Bündchen's marriage to Joaquim Valente has reportedly strengthened her belief in fairy tales.
It is reported that their wedding, which took place almost a year ago, left a pleasant impression on her, and now everything seems more meaningful and important to her.
According to The Blast, a source noted that Bündchen is incredibly happy and feels that everything in her life has worked out well, and now she is happy to be a mother and watch her children grow up.
The model currently embraces a mindfulness- and physical activity-based lifestyle, spending plenty of time outdoors in Florida and engaging in wellness activities.
A source close to the actress added that work has never left her heart, but she has adjusted her schedule to suit herself, putting her family first.
Valente and Bündchen received their marriage license on December 1st and exchanged vows on December 3rd, 2025, in the presence of only friends and family.
The NFL champion defended his passion for the sport last July, prioritizing time spent with family.
Last July, Brady's response to past criticism from his ex-wife seemed to be a subtle nod to parenting and family life issues.
Brady and Bündchen reportedly had several disagreements over his decision to continue playing football rather than retire to spend more time at home.
According to The Blast, Brady said his football career was a way for him to be a father and breadwinner, as all his hours of training and intense focus were directed towards providing for his family.
He continued, saying he also hopes to teach his children the importance of discipline, responsibility, teamwork, and keeping their word, guided by their work ethic. He emphasized that raising children means something different to everyone, and being present during everyday life is not the measure of a good parent, nor is career success in and of itself.
Brady continued by reminding people to always exercise grace because no one can do everything perfectly, but sticking to personal values and priorities gives life meaning and purpose.
Gisele Bündchen's ex-husband is not interested in a serious relationship.
While Bündchen has found love in the arms of a new man, Brady, on the contrary, prefers to remain single. Despite his determination, he has been linked to several celebrities, including Kim Kardashian, after they were both spotted at Lauren and Jeff Bezos's lavish wedding in Italy.
Besides the SKIMS founder, Kardashian also briefly dated actress Sofia Vergara. However, sources close to him have denied rumors of any romantic relationship between him and the actress.
The footballer's inability to find new romantic relationships is reportedly due to his reluctance to commit to a serious relationship, as he prefers to be single and not be emotionally attached to anyone.
A source said, "He's not looking for a serious relationship right now. He just wants to have fun. Casual flings and hookups are fine, but if anyone thinks they can get into anything more with him right now, they're in trouble!"«
