Gisele Bündchen and her hunky jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente hit the waves for a day of paddleboarding in Miami.
The supermodel’s rock-hard abs were on display Sunday as she paddled across the water wearing a black bikini.
The teeny bathing suit showcased her taut derriere, and she finished off her beachy look with a massive straw sun hat and black shades.
Trailing alongside Bündchen, 42, was Valente, who showed off his muscular physique in khaki board shorts and no shirt. He protected himself from the blazing sun with a baseball hat and rocked a scruffy beard.
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel and the martial arts pro were all smiles as they made their way along the sparkling blue water.
While their flirty outing could be construed as a romantic date, Bündchen claimed she and Valente were just friends in a candid interview with Vanity Fair in March.
“I think, at this point, unfortunately, because I’m divorced, I’m sure that [the press is] going to try to attach me to anything,” she told the magazine. “I’m so grateful to know [Valente and his brothers], because not only have they helped me and helped my kids, but they have become great friends, and Joaquim especially.”
She added, “He’s our teacher and, most importantly, he’s a person that I admire and that I trust. It’s so good to have that kind of energy, to have my kids around that type of energy.”
Bündchen also shut down rumors that she was dating her ex-husband Tom Brady’s pal Jeffrey Soffer.
“I have zero relationship with him in any way,” she said, explaining they had not crossed paths for more than six months. “He’s Tom’s friend, not my friend.”
Bündchen and Valente first sparked dating rumors in November 2022, just one month after she finalized her divorce from Brady, to whom she was married for 13 years.
Pvnew broke the news that she had left the former quarterback, 45, after having an “epic” fight over his NFL career.
Bündchen later clarified that football was only one factor in the divorce and insisted she never gave Brady, 45, an ultimatum to choose their marriage over his job.
The exes share two children together: Benjamin, 13, and Vivian, 10. Brady also shares son Jack, 15, with his ex Bridget Moynahan.
Bündchen and her kids have repeatedly been spotted spending time with Valente despite her maintaining that they are just friends.
Meanwhile, sources told Pvnew in February that Brady was not ready to get back on the dating scene, though he did post a thirst trap days later.
