Part 2/5:
Brady's Instagram post emerges against a backdrop of personal changes. Just over a month prior, his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, welcomed her first child with her new boyfriend, 37-year-old Joaquim Valente. The couple finalized their divorce in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage, marking a significant transition in both of their lives.
Gisele's new relationship was made public shortly after her baby news, with details emerging that she began dating the Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor in June 2023. This rapid turn of events may have fueled Brady's emotional engagement with his sport, as he navigates his own path forward following the end of a long marriage.
