Heidi's smile sealed the attraction - Feb 12 2008
Seal was full of praise for his beautiful wife, supermodel Heidi Klum, at the Grammy Awards.

"I was first attracted to Heidi by her smile - her effervescent smile and her wonderful personality," he recalled.

"I look at her at different times of the day, and go 'Wow'."

The three-time Grammy-Award winner said he was the happiest man alive. "I've got a lot to be happy about," he revealed.

"I've got a wonderful wife, and three wonderful kids. And I love my job."

The couple tied the knot in May 2005, and the 44-year-old British singer-songwriter admitted fun was the key to their successful marriage.

"You have to remember to have fun," he said.

"People tend to get married and act too grown up too quickly. You have to remember that you still have to be a kid at times, albeit a kid with experience, but you have to try and have fun."

Heidi sued? - Jan 1 2008

Supermodel Heidi Klum is reportedly being sued by luxury jewellers Van Cleef and Arpels, who are apparently claiming she copied one of their designs.

According to Reuters the lawsuit, which was apparently filed in Manhattan federal court last week, accused the 34-year-old of infringing on Van Cleef and Arpels Inc’s copyright for its distinctive Alhambra collection - a custom-made clover design - for her own jewellery label, Mouawad.

The suit apparently said both Mouawad and Heidi Klum GmbH tried to benefit from Van Cleef’s esteemed reputation by creating and selling a similar clover design from Van Cleef’s vintage Alhambra jewellery line.

Van Cleef and Arpels Inc is owned by luxury goods group Richemont.

Heidi, who gained fame modelling lingerie for Victoria’s Secret and swimsuits, is married to singer Seal and has three children.

She hosts the TV show Project Runway, which features aspiring designers vying for a chance to get a start in the fashion world.

Heidi: Working with Seal ’intimidating’ - Nov 12 2007

Heidi Klum doesn’t seem like the type who would be easily intimidated. But the mother of three, who is the host of Project Runway in the US, admitted that it was her own husband, musician Seal, who brought out those feelings in her.

"It was fun but intimidating," said the 34-year-old supermodel to US Weekly, about recording duet Wedding Day with him for his new album, System.

"He is one of the best singers out there, he knows what he’s doing and then here I am! But I love the way that it came out. I’m very proud he asked me. I couldn’t believe it!"

Heidi also revealed the best thing about being a mum.

"Every day there are new things your kids say and do," she continued.

"Leni (her three-year-old daughter with ex, Flavio Briatore) just learned to cover her mouth when she burps. Now she does this "Whoops! Excuse me! thing. And the boys (two-year-old Henry and 11-month-old Johan) always surprise you."



Love at first sight for Heidi - Oct 25 2007

It seems like Cupid’s arrow struck Heidi Klum and Seal on their fated first meeting.

"I met him in a hotel lobby in New York City. He just came in from the gym and I was sitting there and I was like, wow," the German supermodel told host Oprah Winfrey on her TV show.

And she hints that the ’wow’ reaction was to the musician wearing bicycle shorts for his work-out.

"I pretty much saw everything. The whole package," Heidi added with a grin.
