A source told The Daily Mail that Brady is trying to “the good” in Bündchen’s new relationship. “Tom has been dating and is all about growing from his relationship with Gisele,” the insider pointed out. “And moving it to a place where they are co-parent.”
However, the source also said that Tom Brady has accepted the relationship between Gisele Bündchen and Joaquim Valente began years ago. “If she wants to have people think she has been dating Joaquim only since June, so be it,” the insider continued. “But they have been together longer and they aren’t taking it slow. Tom has accepted it.”
Although Brady and Valente are not friends, Valente is around Brady and Bündchen’s children. “Tom has to find the good in him and does believe he is a good guy,” the source stated. “If Joaquim ever becomes a father figure to his kids, Tom will be able to adapt.”
Speaking about Tom Brady’s co-parenting skills, the source pointed out that before Gisele Bündchen, he was co-parenting with Bridget Moynahan. “People seem to forget Tom has a lot of practice with all of this from his time with Bridget,” the insider shared. “They had a child, they moved on and figured it out. Stuff is working out with him and Gisele and if Joaquim is going to be in her life forever, then he will make it all work for the best for everyone, there is no other option.”
Brady and Bündchen got married in 2009 and share a son Benjamin and a daughter Vivian. The pair called it quits in 2022. Brady is currently rumored to be dating supermodel Irina Shayk.
Tom Brady Once Said His Divorce With Gisele Bündchen Was a ‘Very Amicable Situation’
In Nov. 2022, Tom Brady reflected on his divorce from Gisele Bündchen on his Let’s Go podcast.
“Obviously, the good news is it’s a very amicable situation,” he explained at the time. “And I’m really focused on two things: taking care of my family, and certainly my children, and secondly doing the best job I can to win football games. That’s what professionals do.”
Tom Brady noted that he was focusing on balancing his work/home life. “You focus at work when it’s time to work, and then when you come home, you focus on the priorities that are at home. All you can do is the best you can do. That’s what I’ll just continue to do as long as I’m working and as long as I’m being a dad.”
