Heidi Klum’s daughter Leni Klum, who she shares with ex-husband Seal, surely got a leg up in the modeling world thanks to her famous parents’ connections in the biz, but her supermodel genetics definitely didn’t hurt either. Leni was photographed on the Shotgun Wedding premiere red carpet with her dad, looking as effortlessly modelesque as her mother ever has.
In photos published in Page Six, Leni wears a strapless black minidress with patent-leather platform pumps and matching leather clutch in hand. The 18-year-old wore her hair in a poker-straight lob, with cherry red lip and nails for a ladylike pop of color. Leni’s dad opted for a more low-key look, wearing a black bomber and relaxed black pants. Perhaps Leni is wearing the same Dior lipstick she modeled in a recent campaign for the label, which she posted to her own Instagram. “You can never go wrong with a classic Dior red 999 lipstick, simply iconic,” the young model wrote in the caption.
While Heidi Klum’s daughter clearly has a bright fashion future ahead of her (and how could she not), Heidi has confirmed that Leni’s current priority is college. “I am [so proud]. You know, she has her head screwed on right,” Heidi told Entertainment Tonight in August of 2022. “Right now, college is on top of the list. It’s not modeling and she’s really excited for that next chapter in her life.”
Seal, who officially adopted Leni after he and Heidi married, told ET in 2021 that he and his daughter have always had a close bond. “It’s everything and it has always been like that, from the day I met her mother. She was two weeks pregnant with this beautiful lady. We have always had that bond.”
