Costa Rica, where Gisele has a home, is a place she has often visited with her ex Tom, 46, and his family over the years.
The couple’s day out comes after reports that they called things off due to scrutiny following Tom Brady’s comment, though they later confirmed their romance was still on.
An informant revealed to InTouch Weekly that ‘the spotlight was too much’ for Joaquim.
“Joaquim is a normal guy,” the source added. “He’s not used to all the attention he’s getting.”
During the Netflix special, The Roast of Tom Brady, several jokes were made at the expense of Gisele and Joaquim’s relationship, something the martial arts teacher did not take lightly.
“Joaquim became part of the joke,” the source shared. “People started asking him if he was the reason for the divorce. He hated that.”
At one point, comedian Nikki Glaser joked: “It would be so upsetting for Tom… Oh my God, just knowing that your ex-wife’s new boyfriend could slap your ass while eating hers.”

While that “doesn’t mean you don’t love the person,” the star said Vanity Fair in 2023“It just means that in order to be authentic and truly live the life that you want to live, you have to have someone who can meet you in the middle, right? It’s a dance. It’s a balance.”
Reflecting on her philosophy of being in a relationship, Gisele added: “When you love someone, you don’t put them in a prison and say, ‘You have to live this life.'”
“You free them to be who they are,” he continued, “and if you want to fly in the same direction, then that’s amazing.”

“I look at my life and I wouldn’t change it for anything,” he said. CBS News Sunday Morning‘I wouldn’t have another life.’
“It’s not what I dreamed of or expected,” Gisele added of her divorce. “My parents have been married for 50 years and I wanted that to happen. But I think you have to accept that sometimes when you’re in your 20s, sometimes you grow together and sometimes you grow apart.”
And even though she and Tom went their separate ways, they will always be connected.
“He’s the father of my children,” Gisele explained. “So I always wish him the best and I’m so grateful that he gave me wonderful children. I believe that when one door closes, other doors open.”
