Recent reports indicated that BJJ instructor Joaquim Valente, who was coaching supermodel & BJJ purple belt Gisele Bündchen and then started dating her after her divorce from Tom Brady, ended their relationship.

The pressures from the public and the lingering rumors about their controversial relationship seemed to prove to be too much for Valente, especially following the “Roast of Tom Brady”.

According to In-touch Weekly, Valente decided to break up with Bündchen due to the intense scrutiny he faced, making him realize that continuing the relationship was untenable.

The “Roast” allegedly made him a target of jokes and public attention, leading to the realization that their relationship was doomed.

Reports suggested that Bündchen held Tom Brady responsible for the breakup, believing that his decision to participate in the roast indirectly caused Valente to end their relationship.

However, it seems that the rumors were either unaccounted for – or that the two are now back together!

According to photos obtained by Page Six, the two were seen taking their dog out for a walk, hand-in-hand.
And, even though some sources said that Valente truly hated being blamed for Bündchen’s break-up with Brady, such as:

Joaquim became part of the joke. People actually started asking him if he was the reason for their divorce…
He hated that.

It seems that the two are now happily together again.
