Gisele Bundchen appeared to be in high spirits while attending a charity event on Thursday, shrugging off her ex-husband Tom Brady's headline-hitting new romance.

Bundchen, 46, had a bright smile across her face while attending Sparkles and Costumes Gala in Miami alongside her new spouse Joaquim 

At the event, which raised $1 million for the city's largest women and children's shelter Lotus House, both Bundchen and fellow supermodel Karlie Kloss were honored with the It Takes a Village award for their contributions.

Bundchen donned a cowgirl costume for the gala, which took place two days before Halloween, while Kloss turned heads by appearing as Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's.

Meanwhile, Bundchen's jiu-jitsu instructor husband Valente complemented his stunning spoise by dressing up as a cowboy. 

The couple's public appearance comes amid news that Brady's new flame is Candice Swanepoel, a Victoria's Secret Angel just like Bundchen.

Bundchen was previously married to Brady for 13 years before they called it quits and finalized their divorce in October 2022. 

The former couple share two children together: son Benjamin, 16, and daughter Vivian, 13. 

Brady is also father to 19-year-old son Jack from his past relationship with Bridget Moynahan. 

Bundchen subsequently began a relationship with Valente and welcomed a baby boy with him in February 2025. The couple tied the knot in December 2025. 

At the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show earlier this month, she made a stunning pre-taped lingerie cameo at the end of the show.

She skipped the live runway due to a foot injury that required a medical boot. 

Shortly thereafter, there were reports that fellow Victoria's Secret Angel and supermodel Swanepoel has been dating Brady 'for a while,' per Us Weekly. 

Sharing a profession, Bundchen and Swanepoel have moved in the same circles for years.

There have been recent reports that fellow Victoria's Secret Angel and supermodel Swanepoel has been dating Brady 'for a while.' Bundchen does not view the relationship as a 'betrayal,' insiders familiar with the situation revealed earlier this week

However, Bundchen reportedly does not view the romance as Swanepoel breaking girl code and sees no issue with her ex-husband's new flame. 

Bundchen does not view the relationship as a 'betrayal,' insiders familiar with the situation reportedly told TMZ earlier this week. 

While the two models have been supportive and friendly with one another throughout their careers, their professional relationship never developed into a close friendship, the sources added. 

They also reportedly have not been seen together in recent year, making suggestions of a feud over Brady a bit farfetched. 

The models never walked Victoria's Secret's iconic runway shows at the same time as Bundchen retired from her contract in 2006 — one year before Swanepoel would make her debut.
