How Gisele Bündchen Feels About Ex Tom Brady's Budding Romance With Much-Younger Woman, Alix Earle

Sources claim Gisele Bündchen "doesn't care" about who Tom Brady is dating so long as he prioritizes their children whenever he has them.

Tom Brady is reportedly "hooking up" with influencer Alix Earle after sparking relationship rumors when they rang in the new year at a party in St. Barts.

Now, according to sources, the football legend's ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, "doesn't care" about who he's dating so long as he prioritizes their children whenever he has them.

Gisele Bündchen is also understood to have found peace with her new husband, Joaquim Valente, after they both welcomed their first child together.

Where Things Stand Between Tom Brady And Gisele Bündchen

Ever since Brady and Bündchen ended their 13-year marriage in October 2022, the pair have seemingly embraced completely different lives than their former status as one of Hollywood's power couples.

The former Victoria's Secret angel remarried her Jiu-Jitsu trainer, Joaquim Valente, in a private ceremony back in December 2025, after welcoming their first child together months before.

Meanwhile, the seven-time Super Bowl winner has been linked to some of Hollywood's A-listers, including Kim Kardashian and Irina Shayk, but that was before he sent the internet into a frenzy after he was seen flirting with influencer Alix Earle while they danced and partied together at a New Year's Eve party in St. Barts.

Reports suggest both Brady and Bündchen are quite satisfied with where things are in their private life.

"Tom is genuinely enjoying this chapter," a source close to Brady told Us Weekly. "He sees himself as a single dad who finally has some freedom and is enjoying his life without overthinking it."

Another insider shared that "for the most part," Bündchen is "happy being at home," living a low-key life.

The Supermodel 'Doesn't Care' Who Her Ex-Husband Is Dating

According to US Weekly, Brady and Bündchen's kids are the only reason they still talk sometimes as their coparenting journey continues.

"Tom and Gisele only communicate when it comes to the kids," the first source said. "The dust has settled, but he tries not to meddle in her personal life. He hears things from the kids here and there, but tries to stay neutral. They have a good coparenting schedule."

Bündchen also "doesn't care" who Brady gets with, so long as he prioritizes their children whenever he has them.

"Gisele doesn't care about who Tom's dating," the third source shared. "She's all about letting go. As long as Tom's making the kids a priority when he has them, she's not concerned."

Gisele Bündchen No Longer Socializes With Her And Tom Brady's Mutual Friends

Reports also claim Bündchen's relationship with the mutual friends they shared while they were married has also been rocked, showing just how much things have changed with her.

"Tom and Gisele shared some mutual friends from the time they were married, but she doesn't really socialize with them anymore. Her life has really changed," the insider noted.

They continued, "[Brady and Bündchen] share children and will always have that connection, but the divorce was not easy for either of them."

The Supermodel Is 'At Peace' With Her New Family

Reports suggest that the supermodel is far more compatible with Valente than she was with Brady.

The pair used to be one of the most formidable couples in Hollywood, and seemed to share the perfect family with their children, Vivian and Benjamin, as well as Brady's son, Jack, from his previous relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan.

However, sources told the news outlet that she prefers the slow-paced life her relationship with the trainer offers and was not aligned with the fast-paced celebrity lifestyle she had to live with the star quarterback.

"Gisele's life now is much more private. It's more in line with who she is. It's a life she dreamed of," the second source told Us Weekly, while a third added that "she always envisioned this slower-paced lifestyle for herself and her children, surrounded by nature and removed from 'the business.' She's at peace."

Tom Brady Didn't Want To 'Wind Down' The Way Gisele Bündchen Wanted

Talks of trouble in paradise first came up sometime in 2020 when Brady claimed Bündchen felt he was more dedicated to his football career than he was to their family.

They had been getting along just fine, up until he decided to come out of retirement just 40 days after announcing he was closing the chapter on his career.

According to the publication, Brady "didn't want to get divorced" and was totally "heartbroken" when it came up, but he had to let go as he "wasn't ready to [wind down] the way Gisele wanted to."

At the time, he continued his football but remained in the mix even after he finally retired as he was named the lead NFL analyst for Fox Sports in a 10-year deal believed to be worth around $375 million.

It wasn't easy for Bündchen, as the source said she "felt so broken down by the emotional roller coaster of trying to make [her marriage] work, then realizing it was over and finally separating her family."
