Gisele Bundchen seemingly addressed the dating rumors surrounding her and the jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente in a cryptic post on Instagram on Wednesday, March 15. The post came after the two were seen together once again.
Rumors about Bundchen and Valente dating began when the former got divorced from her husband of 13 years, Tom Brady, last year. So, what does the supermodel have to say about it?
The Cryptic Post
"Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact," she captioned her outdoor photo on Instagram. "Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth."
The post also came with a Portuguese translation of her note.
Bundchen's message seemed to be about her recent outing with Valente on Monday, March 13. The pair was seen out and about in her home country of Costa Rica, taking a casual walk with a friend and two dogs.
Though the scene looked harmless, with a huge space between them as they walked together, it fueled the romance rumors more.

People reported that Bundchen first met Valente when he became her son Benjamin's instructor at his martial arts academy in Miami. From there, they became friends.
In fact, their latest outing wasn't the first time that they were seen together.
They were also spotted visiting Provincia de Puntarenas in Costa Rica in November, two weeks after the former Victoria's Secret Angel's divorce from Brady was finalized.

"Gisele adores and trusts [Joaquim] and has been spending a lot of time with him, but I don't think it's a traditional dating scenario," the source explained. "They have a deep personal relationship, and he is a teacher to her and the kids. Whether or not it will ever become more than that rests on the table."
