Gisele Bündchen and Joaquim Valente reportedly called things off due to added scrutiny on their romance after Tom Brady’s highly talked about Netflix roast.
A source said Thursday that the ‘spotlight was too much’ for Valente, who was Bünchen’s jiu-jitsu trainer before their relationship turned romantic last year.
‘Joaquim’s a regular guy,’ the source said. ‘He’s not used to all the attention he was getting,’ per InTouch Weekly.
While it’s unclear exactly when Bündchen, 43, and Valente, 34, split, they haven’t been photographed together since late April.
THE TURNING POINT
The source said things took a turn for the worse following Brady’s Netflix special, which included several jabs at the pair’s romance.
‘Joaquim became part of the joke. People actually started asking him if he was the reason for their divorce,’ the source added. ‘He hated that.’

HOW TOM ALLEGEDLY CAUSED THE SPLIT
The Brazilian beauty reportedly ‘blames the break on Tom,’ whom she divorced in 2022.
‘By agreeing to do the roast, he basically put a target on Joaquim’s back,’ they said.
During the roast, comedians Kevin Hart and Nikki Glaser brought up Bündchen and Valente’s romance on numerous occasions.
ABOUT THE ROAST
‘How much would it suck for Tom… omg, just knowing your ex-wife’s new boyfriend could beat your a— while eating hers,’ Glaser joked during the live broadcast.
She also joked that the only thing ‘dumber’ than him agreeing to do the roast was telling Bündchen to ‘try jiu-jitsu.’
