THE RUNDOWN
New details have emerged about Gisele Bündchen and Joaquim Valente’s wedding, which took place in a private backyard ceremony in Florida on December 3.
On Tuesday, a source told Entertainment Tonight that Bündchen and Valente kept the ceremony small and private as it was held at their Miami home. “It was simple and beautiful,” the source said, adding that Bündchen’s older children and extended family were present, along with Valente’s relatives and the couple’s baby son, whom they welcomed earlier this year.
The model has been focused on slowing down and embracing a quieter pace since her 2022 divorce from Tom Brady, ET reported. The insider told the outlet that Bündchen is “the happiest she’s been in a long time,” adding, “She is so in love and happy. Gisele has said Joaquim is her soulmate and best friend. She has the man of her dreams, plus a baby, and feels like she has it all.”
This echoes what sources previously shared with People, which reported earlier this month that Bündchen was intentional about keeping her wedding out of the public eye. “Gisele is tired of all of the attention on her private life,” a source told the publication at the time, explaining that a small, private ceremony was exactly what she wanted. Another insider emphasized that she didn’t want anything “over the top,” noting that the timing was right.
Bündchen, who shares son Benjamin, 16, and daughter Vivian, 13, with Brady, has been living in Miami, where she’s “incredibly happy,” according to People. She was first linked to Valente in 2022, and their relationship developed gradually from a friendship. They began dating in 2023.
In a March 2024 interview with The New York Times, Bündchen reflected on their romance, saying, “This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first. It’s very different. It is very honest, and it’s very transparent.”
