Tom Brady Reportedly Felt His Ex-Wife Cheated On Him With Joaquim Valente
Although reports suggest that Bündchen and Valente started dating in June of last year, Brady insinuated that she was unfaithful in their marriage, and they started their relationship "years ago."
A source close to the NFL star told the Daily Mail in February that he has seemingly "accepted" that his ex-wife started her romance with Valente "years ago" and was already learning to "adapt" to his blended family after Bündchen and Valente's romance became public knowledge.
"Tom has been dating and is all about growing from his relationship with Gisele and moving it to a place where they can co-parent," a source told the outlet.
The source also weighed in on the supermodel and her jiu-jitsu trainer's relationship timeline, saying, "If she wants to have people think she has been dating Joaquim only since June, so be it, but they have been together longer, and they aren't taking it slow. Tom has accepted it."

The source revealed that Brady was determined to maintain a cordial relationship with Valente for the sake of his children.
"Tom and Joaquim are not friends — but Joaquim is around his kids, so Tom has to find the good in him and does believe he is a good guy," the source claimed.
They added, "If Joaquim ever becomes a father figure to his kids, Tom will be able to adapt."
While Bündchen has moved on with Valente, Brady has yet to be seriously linked to any woman and has remained single since his divorce from the supermodel.
Gisele Bündchen Denied The Infidelity Allegations
Meanwhile, Bündchen has since denied allegations that she was unfaithful before her marriage with Brady ended in October 2022.
The former Victoria Secret's angel told the New York Times that the allegations were "lies," adding that it was "something that happens to a lot of women who get blamed when they have the courage to leave an unhealthy relationship and are labeled as being unfaithful."
"They have to deal with their communities. They have to deal with their family," she continued. "Of course, for me, it just happens to be a little bit amplified."
Bündchen went on to note that "no one really knows what happens between two people, only the two people in the relationship."
