Gisele Bündchen and Ivanka Trump seem to be becoming great friends. The two were spotted hanging out in Costa Rica on Wednesday, looking like total bikini besties during a relaxed sunset gathering at the Blue Mist.
The Brazilian supermodel looked radiant and super toned as she walked barefoot along the beach, just weeks after welcoming her third child on February 8, 2025.
Also spotted with them? Karlie Kloss, who happens to be married to Jared Kushner’s brother, Joshua. Kloss and Ivanka have been on a family vacation, skipping Easter at the White House.
The famous trio looked totally at ease, soaking in the tropical vibes and enjoying each other's company.
Costa Rica has become Bündchen's second home since her relationship with jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente began. The two now share a son, River, and Valente trains clients (and celebs) at his studio there. Ivanka’s even gotten in on the action—she shared a video last month of herself training with the Valente brothers.
Putting everything aside
What makes this new girl gang so interesting is the history. Back in 2017, there were rumors that Bündchen wasn’t too fond of Ivanka. Anthony Scaramucci—who briefly served as White House Communications Director—told TMZ that he believed Gisele didn’t want her ex-husband Tom Brady attending the Patriots' White House visit because she was “possessive” of him.
He didn’t claim inside info, but said, "I think she’s possessive of him and probably didn’t want him there." The man seemed to be talking out of a place of nonsense, though, as Brady said at the time, it was to spend time with his mom, who was battling cancer at the time.
To make things weirder, Donald Trump once publicly said Tom and Ivanka would be a “good combination.” In 2004, he even floated the idea that they’d make a cute couple. Spoiler: Ivanka ended up marrying Jared.
And as for Kloss, she's been very open about the liberal views she and her husband share, despite being part of the extended Trump family through marriage. There's been a rumored rift between her and Ivanka in the past, so if there’s one thing the group probably isn’t discussing on this beachy retreat, it’s politics.
