Gisele Bundchen gets emotional and tears up while giving a lecture at the VTEX event in Brazil

Gisele Bundchen was moved to tears while giving a lecture at the VTEX event in São Paulo, Brazil, on Monday. 

The supermodel, 42, got emotional and was pictured dabbing her eyes with a handkerchief while onstage at the event, which was held at the São Paulo Expo Exhibition & Convention Center, though it’s unclear what made her tear up.

The Vogue cover girl – who divorced Tom Brady last year – attended on the first day and was the highlight of the main stage, where subjects ranging from business, to software and e-commerce were discussed.

She spoke with the president and co-founder of VTEX, Mariano Gomide, and addressed ‘her challenges to conquer the world, her job in defense of nature and her journey of example in entrepreneurship’ according to a press release. 

It comes two days after her ex-husband, 45, got candid about co-parenting with Gisele, following their divorce in October, and said they have done ‘an amazing job.’

Gisele wowed in a skintight brown turtleneck dress which clung to her enviable physique.

She paired the dress with strappy nude heels and a number of gold accessories.

The beauty wore her golden tresses parted in the middle and cascading down in light waves.

Despite having the emotional moment, she appeared happy through the rest of the event and flashed her megawatt smile numerous times. 

The beauty seems to be settling into her new single life. Bundchen is said to be ‘back to herself’ after divorcing from Brady last year.

The star – who made her first solo appearance at the Met Gala last month – was married to former NFL star Tom from 2009 until 2022.

Together they share Benjamin, 13, and 10-year-old Vivian. Brady also has a 15-year-old son Jack with ex-partner and actress Bridget Moynahan.

Now an insider has claimed that she is just happy to be in ‘mom mode’ since parting ways with her ex-husband.

A source told People: ‘She’s back to herself, she’s good, she’s happy, she’s doing lots of good things.’

‘She’s back to work. [When she was with Tom,] she was just focusing on being a mom.’

‘With all their moves [because he changed teams] and everything, you have to be in mom mode.’

‘She’s really happy just enjoying her new chapter!’ 

In March, Gisele was asked about the speculation that she had become romantically involved with jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente, with whom she recently enjoyed a paddle boarding adventure. 

And although she was vague in her response, she admitted she is ‘so grateful’ to know the trainer and his brothers Pedro and Gui, who also teach martial arts.

She told Vanity Fair: ‘I think, at this point, unfortunately, because I’m divorced, I’m sure that they’re going to try to attach me to anything.

‘I’m so grateful to know all of them, because not only have they helped me and helped my kids, but they have become great friends, and Joaquim especially.’

Family: Together they share Benjamin, 13, and 10-year-old Vivian. Brady also has a 15-year-old son Jack with ex-partner and actress Bridget Moynahan

‘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.’

Meanwhile Brady recently complimented himself and Gisele, on their co-parenting skills In a new Zoom interview with Entertainment Tonight.

‘I think these kids that come up under your roof, you want to provide them with values, so that when they move forward in their life, they have a real solid base and foundation,’ he told ET’s Kevin Frazier.

Referencing Benjamin and Vivian’s mother, the athlete added, ‘And I think myself and their mom have done an amazing job of providing that, and I think that we’re just gonna keep doing it.’
