Nikki’s other jabs included: ‘Tom, the only thing dumber than you saying “yes” to this roast was when you said, “Hey babe, you should try jiu-jitsu.”‘

‘This is something that happens to a lot of women who get blamed when they have the courage to leave an unhealthy relationship and are labeled as being unfaithful,’ explained Bündchen.
She added, ‘They have to deal with their communities. They have to deal with their family. Of course for me, it just happens to be a little bit amplified.’
The interview came days before she and Valente made their public debut as a couple at the Miami launch of her cookbook Nourish.
