Gisele Bundchen broke down in tears as she reflected on her divorce from Tom Brady in a candid new interview.
The 43-year-old supermodel, who was recently spotted kissing her jitsu teacher boyfriend Joaquim Valente, broke down in tears in a teaser for her conversation with Robin Roberts on IMPACT x Nightline: Gisele Bündchen: Climbing the Mountain.
Bundchen began dating the 46-year-old soccer star in 2007 and dated him for more than a decade before they confirmed their divorce in October 2022. They have two children together, Benjamin, 14, and Vivian, 11.
The fashion icon became visibly emotional when Roberts mentioned that the star had described her split from Brady as “the death of a dream.”
Roberts then asked, “How are you?” Bundchen replies, “Well, if you say…” before breaking down.

She turned away from the camera and said, “Sorry, guys.” I don't know. Can I have a little moment?'
Roberts also asked Bundchen how she juggles co-parenting with Brady. The star said: “I think there are easier days than others and I can only control what I do.”
Bundchen, who has yet to speak publicly about her new romance, was asked, “Would you be able to open your heart to someone again?” and the star replied, “Um.”
She said, “Where my heart is now is where I am right now.” “I'm living my truth and making no apologies for it.”
She later said that her experiences with love made her realize “what I want and what I don't want.”
