Who is Seal wife Heidi Klum?
Klum was born and raised in Bergisch Gladbach, a city near Cologne, West Germany. She is 49 years old and was born on June 1, 1973. She is the daughter of Erna Klum who was a hairdresser and Günther Klum a cosmetics company executive.
A friend convinced her to enroll in a national modeling contest called “Model 92”. Out of 25,000 contestants, Klum was voted the winner on 29 April 1992, and she was offered a modeling contract worth US$300,000 by Thomas Zeumer, CEO of Metropolitan Models New York.
After winning, she appeared on the Gottschalk Late Night Show, a German television show with host Thomas Gottschalk. She accepted the contract a few months later, after graduating from school, and decided not to try for an apprentice position at a fashion design school.
Klum began dating the musician Seal in February 2004 shortly after she announced her pregnancy and the end of her relationship with Italian Formula One team manager Flavio Briatore.
Klum and Seal got engaged in December 2004 on a glacier in Whistler, British Columbia and married on 10 May 2005 on a beach in Mexico. They have three biological children together, two sons born in September 2005 and November 2006, and a daughter born in October 2009.
On 21 November 2009, Klum officially adopted Seal’s surname and became legally known as Heidi Samuel. Soon after, in December 2009, Seal officially adopted Leni, and her last name was changed to Samuel. During their marriage, Klum and Seal renewed their vows to one another each year on their anniversary in front of family and friends.
On 22 January 2012, the couple announced that they were separating after almost seven years of marriage. She filed for divorce from Seal three months later on 6 April 2012. She also requested that her name be restored to her birth name Heidi Klum. Their divorce was finalized on 14 October 2014.
