The speculated romance between Gisele Bündchen and her jiu-jitsu coach Joaquim Valente has yet to die down, with a new source claiming the pair made out on Valentine’s Day.
Romance rumors have been swirling since the former Victoria’s Secret Angel ended her marriage to NFL superstar Tom Brady in 2022. Although she previously denied being romantically involved with Valente, the pair were reportedly spotted locking lips on Wednesday.

According to the source, “They are very much in love” and often spend time together. During their V-Day outing, the couple flaunted their rumored relationship by sharing a steamy kiss, an insider claims. Another informant claimed that “[They’ve been] have secretly been seeing each other since the summer.”
Valente has been photographed regularly with Bündchen and her children on several trips to Costa Rica and their home country of Brazil. He has also been seen with his family on their vacations, enjoying intimate activities such as rowing, strolling on the beach, jogging, and horseback riding, among other scenes.
A few weeks after the announcement of Bündchen and Brady’s divorce, Valente was spotted with the model and her children on a trip to Costa Rica. However, a source at the time said: “[Joaquim] and her two older brothers are Gisele and the children’s martial arts teacher. They are not dating.”
Likewise, Bündchen denied dating rumors with a cryptic Instagram post in 2023 following a viral fling with a jiu-jitsu instructor. He dropped the quote: “Everything we hear is opinion, not fact. Everything we see is perspective, not truth.”
Still, the dating rumors persisted, with another insider telling Page Six the pair had allegedly been together for at least a year. The source claimed the couple had been spotted leaving their respective places and taking their dog with them.

Inside Gisele Bündchen’s Relationship With Her Jiu-Jitsu Coach
Before their alleged Valentine’s Day kiss, Bündchen and Valente were last seen enjoying a trip in Costa Rica ahead of Thanksgiving in November 2023. The group was pictured having a casual lunch in a beautiful tropical setting.
As noted, Valente is Bündchen’s jiu-jitsu coach, and they first met when she signed her kids up for lessons at her family’s gym in Miami. She eventually joined the class and raved about her excitement to practice self-defense in an Instagram post.
He shared a video of himself training with Valente with the caption: “I believe the more tools we have in our toolbox, the better. I feel stronger, more confident and energetic since I started practicing self-defense. I think it’s an important skill for everyone, but especially for us women.”
“Thank you, @ValenteBrothers, for being such a great teacher and making training so much fun,” Bündchen concluded. This isn’t the first time he’s raved about Valente’s classes, as he previously admitted he inspired him to start studying jiu-jitsu.
“At first, I didn’t consider it for myself, to be honest with you,” he said in a 2022 interview, adding: “But when I brought it to the first class and started talking to Joaquim, I realized that it was more than self-defense and became interested in philosophy.”
“It felt very much in line with what I believed in and was looking for in my life and how I had a path to develop and become the best version of myself … then I was hooked,” he declared.

His jiu-jitsu lessons lead to more sightings with Valente and, eventually, dating rumors. However, she refuted the speculation in a 2023 cover story for Vanity Fair, describing Valente as someone she enjoyed spending time with. In his words:
“He is our teacher and, most importantly, he is someone I admire and I trust. It’s great to have that kind of energy, to have my kids around that kind of energy.”
Regarding dating speculation, Bündchen lamented: “I think, at this point, unfortunately, because I’m divorced, I’m sure that they’ll try to hook me up with anything.” He stated he was grateful to know Valente and his brothers, declaring, “They have been good friends, and Joaquim especially.”
