Gisele Bündchen's Jiu-Jitsu instructor turned husband Joaquim Valente has a reported net worth of $1 million to $5 million as of 2026. The couple married in December 2025 after welcoming a child earlier that year.
Joaquim Valente, 38, hails from Rio de Janeiro and runs Valente Brothers Jiu-Jitsu in Miami with his siblings. He met Gisele when her son Benjamin started classes, and the pair began dating quietly in mid-2023 after her 2022 divorce from Tom Brady.
The couple welcomed their first child together in early 2025 and tied the knot in December 2025. Gisele praised Valente in a June 2026 Father's Day post as an “incredible role model” bringing “love, humility, integrity, discipline, kindness and consistency” to the family.
Valente studied criminology at Barry University and earned a professors’ diploma from Grandmaster Hélio Gracie. Sources describe him as down to earth and a steady presence for Gisele in Miami.
