Heidi Klum and Tom Kaulitz: Love, Tattoos, and Defying Age!
GET READY FOR THE ULTIMATE LOVE STORY: HEIDI KLUM'S JOURNEY TO FINDING HER SOULMATE!
Heidi Klum, the stunning supermodel, is spilling all about her whirlwind romance with Tokio Hotel guitarist Tom Kaulitz! In a juicy new interview with The Scholarly Note, Heidi dished on how she almost didn't attend the party where they met - and what made it the "sliding door moment" that changed her life forever!
It was December 2018 when Heidi and Tom got engaged (just two months after meeting!), and now, seven years later, they're still going strong! But before we dive into their fairytale romance, let's take a trip down memory lane to explore Heidi's journey of self-discovery, love, and growth.
Heidi revealed that she was initially hesitant to attend the party where Tom was performing. "I really wanted to stay home," she confessed. "But then I gave myself a little kick in the butt!" Little did she know, that spontaneous decision would lead her to find the love of her life!
As we know, Heidi has been married twice before - first to celebrity hairstylist Ric Pipino and then to British singer-songwriter Seal. But Tom was different. He offered Heidi a "clean slate" and encouraged her to let go of her baggage. "At first I wanted to project what I had learned from different men I had been with...like 'Ooh, this reminds me of something that happened, is that a flag?'", she admitted.
But it wasn't until Tom told her, "Don't do this to me, because I'm not this person, I'm not that person. Scratch everything. I have to have a fair chance," that Heidi finally felt free to be herself! And boy, was it love at first sight!
Their relationship is filled with PDA-filled social media posts and red-carpet appearances that leave us all swooning! But what really makes their romance special is the shared activities they enjoy together - like shopping for lingerie (Tom loves when Heidi gets "all dolled up" in a miniskirt and pumps!)
The couple even got matching name tattoos, with Heidi joking, "His looks much better — so I'm the better tattoo artist!" And did you know that Tom is still swooning over Heidi's iconic supermodel status? "He loves sitting there, and I go into the changing room and I come out with a different outfit on," she shared.
Of course, marriage hasn't changed Heidi one bit! She's still loud, proud, and confident - just like we know her! What keeps their relationship fresh? Stolen weekends, handwritten notes, making time for each other...and a few things she can't share (wink-wink, nudge-nudge!)
As they navigate the world of marriage, Heidi and Tom have also had to deal with age-related scrutiny. But you know what? They're not bothered! "When our door closes at home, I don't really care so much what happens around us," Heidi said matter-of-factly.
The 17-year age gap between them doesn't faze her either. "I've learned things from my husband that I didn't know I was capable of doing," she added. And with that, Heidi solidified her status as an unapologetically sexy and confident icon at the ripe age of 52!
In a world where age-shaming is rampant, Heidi is on a mission to challenge outdated ideas about aging! "The biggest misconception [about] being in your 50s is that you are off the shelf. You're not off the shelf...We are very much on that shelf for everyone to see. Don't hide in your 50s. Beauty is ever-changing, and I'm here for the change. If it's always the same, life is boring!" she declared.
And let's be real - Heidi has been killing the game since her days as a supermodel in the 1990s! But now, with Instagram, social media, and the world at her fingertips, she's more empowered than ever!
As she looks to the future, Heidi welcomes the journey of aging - gray hair, laugh lines, and all! "Don't we all want to get old? I know we always say that, but it's the truth. I'm already looking at 60 and 70, hopefully 80 and 90. And if we're still kicking it then, let's celebrate!" she concluded.
In a nutshell, Heidi Klum is living her best life - and we can't help but be inspired! Whether she's rocking bikinis on island-hopping adventures with Tom or sharing her secrets to staying youthful and confident at 52, Heidi is the ultimate role model for women of all ages!
