Relatives of supermodel Gisele Bündchen have reportedly expressed dissatisfaction with her recent marriage to personal trainer Joaquim Valente, with whom she has had a third child. The significant income disparity between the spouses is cited as the cause for concern.
According to sources close to the 45-year-old model, the Bündchen family has been skeptical about her relationship with Joaquim Valente from the very beginning. They believe that the financial gap between the spouses could become a source of serious problems in the future. Insiders claim that her relatives have directly warned Gisele about the risks of marrying someone who does not have comparable wealth.
Despite Joaquim Valente not only working as a Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach but also owning his own martial arts academy in Miami, those close to the model believe that the couple is in "different financial weight classes." At the same time, Bündchen herself, according to sources, holds traditional views and decided to legalize their relationship after the birth of their child, considering it an important step for the family.
It is also reported that the couple signed a prenuptial agreement before the wedding. However, the model's relatives doubt its reliability and believe that the document contains legal loopholes that could allow Valente to claim financial compensation in the event of a divorce.
The news that Gisele Bündchen secretly married 35-year-old Joaquim Valente became known at the end of December. Previously, insiders claimed that the model did not plan to formalize their relationship and preferred to simply live with her partner.
Recall that Bündchen was previously married to NFL star Tom Brady for 13 years. Their divorce was finalized in 2022. The former couple has two children — son Benjamin and daughter Vivian. Brady himself has reportedly recently rekindled his relationship with Irina Shayk.
