Tom Brady just reminded the world that single looks good on him.

The retired NFL legend, 48, dropped a couple of eyebrow-raising Instagram Stories on December 20 — just days after news broke that his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen quietly tied the knot with her jiu-jitsu instructor, Joaquim Valente.

First up: a thirst trap featuring Brady in a fitted black T-shirt and shorts, holding a football with the caption “LFG [Let’s F—— Go].” Then came a mirror selfie of the quarterback rocking a “Forever Young” hoodie, captioned simply, “Yuppppppp💯.” Both posts were soundtracked to Logic’s “1-800-273-8255,” a song linked to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — adding an unexpectedly emotional layer to the flex.

The timing? Impossible to miss.

According to marriage records, Bündchen, 45, officially married Valente, 38, on December 3 in an intimate ceremony at their Surfside, Florida home. The couple, who began dating in mid-2023, also welcomed a baby boy earlier this year.

Brady and Bündchen were married for 13 years before their 2022 divorce. They share two kids — Benjamin, 16, and Vivian, 13 — and Brady also has a son, Jack, with actress Bridget Moynahan.

In the months since Gisele’s new chapter began, Brady’s social media has doubled as a diary. When Bündchen’s pregnancy was revealed in 2024, he shared Theodore Roosevelt’s “Man in the Arena” quote. After her baby was born, he reposted a reflection on love: “The secret to being loved is to love.”

Now, he’s all about staying “Forever Young” — and maybe reminding everyone that he’s still the GOAT on and off the field.
