Tom Brady Shares Cryptic Message After Gisele Bündchen Marriage Reveal

by

Tom Brady is laying it all out on the field.

Just days after Gisele Bündchen appeared to be wearing a wedding ring from her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, at an event in São Paolo, Brazil on December 18th, former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady offered a look at how he’s doing.

Tom Brady, 48, posted a puzzling photo on Instagram Stories. It was a close-up of him wearing a white hoodie with the words “Forever Young” printed on it. Brady shares three children: 16-year-old Benjamin and 13-year-old Vivian with Gisele, and 18-year-old Jack with his ex-wife, Bridget Moynahan.

The seven-time Super Bowl winner confirmed he agreed with the message on his sweatshirt, simply writing “Yuppppppp” in the caption of his December 20th post.

Tom’s music selection for the post seemed to reveal how he’s been feeling. He chose “1-800-273-8255” by Logic, a well-known and impactful song about mental health.

In his new song, Logic reflects on feeling lost and disconnected, singing about taking time to himself and questioning his own life. He asks listeners if they can relate to these feelings.

Gisele and jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente got married in Surfside, Florida, on December 3rd, according to official records obtained by TopMob News. This comes three years after Gisele’s divorce from Tom, and after she and Joaquim welcomed their first child together in February.

The couple started dating in June 2023, shortly after the model’s divorce was finalized. Their fast-moving relationship suggests they share a very strong connection.

You know, I recently shared with The New York Times that dating someone I was friends with first is a totally new experience for me. It’s been surprisingly refreshing – so much more open and honest than anything I’ve known before. It feels good to build a relationship on a foundation of genuine connection and transparency.

Although Gisele and Joaquim generally keep their relationship private, Gisele has occasionally shared small details about their life at home.

Things are finally starting to feel manageable now that my baby is sleeping through the night! I was telling Vogue France recently just how much a difference it makes – seriously, other moms will understand, sleep (or the lack of it!) changes everything. But honestly, I feel so lucky to be able to stay home with my kids and really soak up all these precious moments. It’s truly priceless.

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve always been fascinated by people who redefine success, and Tom Brady is a prime example. His 23-year football career was legendary – seven Super Bowl wins, 20 seasons with the Patriots, and three with the Buccaneers. He even surprised us all with a brief retirement and unretirement before finally stepping away for good. But beyond the championships, what truly shines is his dedication to family. Tom is a proud dad to four children: Jack, with Bridget Moynahan, and Benjamin and Vivian with Gisele Bündchen. After a long marriage, he and Gisele divorced in 2022. He’s spoken so beautifully about how much joy his kids bring to his life, and how important it is for him to be there to support their growth. As he shared with TopMob News, being a dad is ‘a great thing’ and he cherishes watching them mature.

Bridget Moynahan, known for her role on the TV show Blue Bloods, experienced intense media scrutiny in 2007 when it became public that she was pregnant with Tom Brady’s child. This happened shortly after their relationship ended and he began dating Gisele Bündchen.

In a 2019 interview with People magazine, Moynahan described being followed by cars and having strangers lurking near her home. As a new mother, she felt this attention was a real danger to her child.

Eventually, Moynahan, Brady, and Bündchen established a cooperative co-parenting relationship.

Moynahan shared that they all agreed to raise their son together, and both Brady and Bündchen found partners who loved and supported him as if he were their own. “I don’t think you can ask for more than that,” she said. “My son is surrounded by love.”

Bridget considers Andrew Frankel her closest partner. The actress, known for her role in I, Robot, married the businessman in 2015 and became a stepmother to his three sons.

As they say, sometimes you need to look for something new, and that’s what I did,” Bridget shared with Glamour in 2021. “I used to date people within the entertainment industry, but I found someone genuinely good – a kind and down-to-earth person without all the usual superficiality. He’s a wonderful person and a great partner. I don’t think I fully appreciated what that meant in real life when I was younger.

John Edward Thomas Moynahan, known as Jack, was born in August 2007. His father, Tom, celebrated Jack’s 16th birthday in 2023 with a heartfelt Instagram post, saying Jack has brought joy and blessings to everyone who knows him since the day he was born. Gisele, who considers Jack her “bonus child,” has explained that his birth prompted her and Tom to reconsider their plans for expanding their family. In her 2018 book, Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life, she wrote that Jack helped them both mature and realize they wanted siblings for him who were closer in age. Jack shares his father’s athletic ability, but his parents are committed to letting him find his own interests and career path. Bridget mentioned in a 2023 interview that Jack is still figuring things out, and they want to avoid putting any pressure on him to follow in their footsteps.

Gisele and Tom met on a blind date in December 2006 and married in February 2009. They soon started a family, welcoming their son Benjamin later that year and their daughter Vivian in 2012. After a successful modeling career, Gisele prioritized raising her children. As she told Vanity Fair in 2023, she cherished being fully present for them – breastfeeding for almost two years, making meals, and taking them to school.

Though their marriage ended in divorce in October 2022, Gisele clarified that reports of a split due to Tom’s un-retirement from football were inaccurate. She explained they had simply grown apart.

Following the breakup, Gisele became closer to her jiu-jitsu instructor, Joaquim Valente, and in February 2025, they welcomed their first child together.

Born in December 2009, Benjamin Rein Brady, known as Benny, is the son of Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen. On Benny’s 15th birthday in 2024, Tom shared on Instagram how proud he was of the young man Benny had become. He praised Benny’s dedication to his many pursuits – as a student, artist, athlete, and musician – but especially highlighted him as a wonderful brother and son, noting how his hard work inspires those around him.

Like his father, Benny has also taken up football. Tom mentioned on his podcast, Let’s Go! With Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray, in 2023 that he’s been practicing with Benny, predicting he’ll be a talented player. Tom also shared that Benny is a gifted musician and artist, and recently decided to try football.

Tom Brady considers his daughter, Vivian Lake Brady, born in December 2012, to be his “forever baby girl.” He shared on Instagram for her 12th birthday in 2024 that watching her grow and pursue her dreams has been the proudest part of his life. He also expressed how her kindness and happiness always brighten his day.

Vivian strongly resembles her mother, Gisele Bündchen – so much so that she can even unlock Gisele’s phone with Face ID! Gisele’s Instagram often features photos of the two of them enjoying activities together, like horseback riding and yoga.

Gisele posted in 2023 about how proud she is of Vivian and how much joy she brings to her life, adding a loving “Te amo muito” (I love you very much).

Gisele initially stated that her connection with Joaquim was purely friendly. She explained to Vanity Fair in 2023, anticipating scrutiny due to her divorce, that she was thankful for Joaquim and his brothers. They’ve been a support to her and her children, and have become close friends. She particularly praised Joaquim, describing him as a jiu-jitsu instructor she admires and trusts, and appreciating the positive influence he has on her family.

Their friendship eventually blossomed into a romantic relationship. In an interview with The New York Times in March 2024, she described dating a former friend as a unique experience, emphasizing the honesty and openness it brings. She firmly denied any claims of infidelity during her previous marriage, calling them false. Although Joaquim and Gisele are private about their relationship, they’ve been seen displaying affection publicly, and reports suggest they will marry in a small ceremony in Florida in December 2025.

Gisele and Joaquim have been keeping a significant part of their lives private: their new baby. Since welcoming the child in early 2025, they haven’t shared the baby’s name with the public. However, Gisele has given fans small glimpses, like a sweet Mother’s Day photo of the baby wearing an “I Heart Mom” onesie. She recently shared on Instagram that she’s been enjoying quiet moments with her family, embracing a slower pace of life and focusing on meaningful connections. She explained that some of the most precious moments are best experienced privately, rather than shared publicly.
