She broke down in tears this week as she lifted the lid on life after divorce during an extremely candid sit-down interview with Robin Roberts.
Yet it was back to business as usual for Gisele Bundchen on Wednesday as she posed for a Hugo Boss photoshoot on the beach in Miami.
The 43-year-old Brazilian model looked incredible as she strutted her stuff in an array of jumpers and coats.
Yet despite layering up on her top half, the mother-of-two was lacking on her bottom half as she forwent trousers for the shoot.
She did remember her footwear, however, donning a pair of black calf high boots as she strolled across the sand.

Gisele was throwing herself into work after getting candid about her love life in a chat for Impact x Nightline.
She finally admitted that she’s open to finding love again following her split from Tom Brady – but stayed silent about her rumored new romance with jiu-jitsu trainer Joaquim Valente.
The model burst into tears discussing her divorce during the chat at her palatial Miami ranch, dishing on everything from how she and her ex co-parent their two kids to her hopes for ‘opening her heart’ again.
But she coyly avoided addressing the speculation that she’s dating fitness trainer Joaquim, who she was spotted passionately kissing last month.
Robin told the audience during the 30-minute special – entitled IMPACT x Nightline: Gisele Bundchen: Climbing the Mountain, which premiered on Hulu on Thursday – that Gisele refused to comment directly on the Joaquim rumors, stating that she ‘wants to keep her personal life private.’
But when she asked the Brazilian star if she thought she’d be ‘able to open up her heart again to someone,’ Gisele couldn’t contain her smile as she admitted that she was definitely not giving up on love.
‘Right now, really my priority is my kids and creating this beautiful sanctuary for my family but then yes, why not,’ she said.
‘Life is full of surprises. I don’t have a crystal ball that says what will happen tomorrow, but yes.’

Gisele started dating NFL star Brady, 46, in 2007 and was with him for more than a decade before they confirmed they were divorcing in October 2022.
They share two children Benjamin, 14, and Vivian, 11, while he also has an older son, Jack, 16, from his previous relationship with Bridget Moynahan.
Gisele bought her sprawling Florida ranch for $9 million in September 2023; the nine-bedroom property, which sits on 7.5 acres of land, comes with a full-size soccer field, tennis courts, and a hot tub.
Other amenities include an infinity pool and state-of-the-art equestrian rink, which includes 10 large horse stalls, a hibachi grill, pizza oven, BBQ pit, and a wine fridge.
During her interview with Robin, Gisele also spoke about how she and Tom are ‘co-parenting’ their kids, and she admitted that ‘there’s easier days than others.’
But she insisted that her children are ‘super smart’ and have ‘adapted’ to the changes in their lives.
‘They’re super smart children and they know what they can get away with,’ she explained.
‘I think it’s natural that [me and Tom each] have different rules. And kids just adapt. I can only control what I do. Now, it’s really about balance.
‘Tom has time with them and I have time with them. I think it’s amazing because it’s more enriching for their lives.
‘They get to experience two different worlds, and they get to learn from two different worlds and that’s wonderful for them.’

Gisele spoke candidly about her love life, family and future plans in the interview
While the catwalk queen may have moved on with her jiu-jitsu trainer, she couldn’t help but become emotional when Robin asked her about the split.
When Robin asked Gisele how she was holding up, she broke down as she turned away from the camera.
‘Sorry, guys. I don’t know. Can I have a little moment?’ she tearfully asked.
The Good Morning America host said that the supermodel had likened her divorce to ‘the death of a dream.’
‘It’s heartbreaking to go through that,’ Gisele admitted after taking a few seconds to gather herself.
‘It’s definitely a transition that had to take place. You don’t wish for it but sometimes in life things happen.’
But she added, ‘I wouldn’t change anything in my life because I had incredible experiences, I learned so much.
‘I have my children which are the biggest blessing in my life. And now I get to create a new season, a new chapter in my life and learn new things.
‘I get to walk my path in a different way and I’m grateful for all of it, for every lesson. Everything I’ve experienced, it made me realize what I want and don’t want.’
Her mind was firmly back on work as she settled in for her day of shooting

Gisele said that she used to care about ‘being liked’ and felt like she had to ‘act a certain way’ – but now, she’s focused on ‘living her authentic self.’
‘At the end of the day, if you’re not truthful to who you are it doesn’t work,’ she concluded.
‘I’m more committed to living my truth more than ever. That’s where my heart is now. I’m living my truth and I’m not apologizing for it.’
Rumors that Gisele and Joaquim were dating first erupted when the two were pictured holidaying together with her children in Costa Rica in November 2022 – just two weeks after she confirmed her divorce from Tom.
Gisele previously denied that they were dating, insisting to Vanity Fair in March 2023 that they were ‘great friends.’
She said of Joaquim and his brothers Pedro and Gui, who run the Valente Brothers Jiu-Jitsu studio with him: ‘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.
‘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.’

But in February 2024, the two seemed to confirm that they were an item when they were caught smooching after a dinner date.
Since the split, Tom has been linked to model Irina Shayk, and a source previously told DailyMail.com that Gisele is totally supportive of his new romance.
‘Gisele is unbothered by Tom and Irina, or anyone that Tom dates, so long as they treat their kids with love,’ the insider said.
‘Tom and Gisele are divorced, and she’s moved on. So long as Tom plays an active role in his kids’ lives like he does and continues to the wonderful father he is, Gisele is happy for him and whoever he chooses to fall in love with.’
