“Giselle is worried”: the model’s reaction to the ex-Tom Brady revelation

Gisele Bundchen may have moved on, but it looks like her past with Tom Brady will continue to haunt her for a long time to come. After scandalous parts of a new biography about her ex, Tom Brady, were revealed yesterday (Sunday), an insider claims that Gisele took it pretty hard and remains very worried.

The book, Brady: An American Story and the Price of Greatness, to be published tomorrow, gives dramatic details of the collapse of the former couple’s 13-year marriage. But according to someone close to the two, as the “Daily Mail” is now reporting, the disclosure really did not go over quietly with Gisele. “As much as Tom and Gisele would certainly like to put the difficult parts of their past behind them, they are forever connected through their children – and that makes the possibility of completely forgetting about the history of their relationship impossible,” the insider said.

“Now that new stories and details about their marriage and its end are resurfacing, Gisele is feeling the weight of it much more than Tom,” he continued, “Tom seems to have gotten better at ignoring the noise.”

According to him, “Her biggest concern is not what people say about her – but what her children will read, hear or have to deal with. She worries about how they will process all of this as they grow older, and especially how Joaquim (her husband, Joaquim Valente) will feel, when he sees his wife’s previous relationship repeatedly take center stage,” the source continued. “She would never want Hoakim to feel like he’s playing a secondary role to Tom, or that he’s somehow overshadowed by a relationship that ended years ago.

“That’s what makes it so difficult for Gisele. No matter how much she wants to move on, Tom is still a part of her life because of their children, and each new story has the potential to rekindle feelings she’s worked hard to leave behind. It’s a complicated balancing act — protecting her children and her current husband and their feelings, dealing with her feelings, and trying to leave the past behind.”

The recent revelations hit Gisele in a much more personal place than Tom according to the same insider, when the main focus of the Brazilian model today is on her children and her relationship with the 38-year-old Valente, whom she married in December 2025, a few months after they gave birth to a child together. Since the wedding, the two have been leading a quiet lifestyle away from the spotlight in South Florida.

Bündchen shares custody of her two children with Brady – Benjamin (16) and Vivian (13). Brady also has another son, Jack (19), from his previous relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan.
