tion that more could be done with a new show on a new
network.
Being a semi-retired model still requires a great
deal of dedication and focus on her physical well-
being. Klum takes a balanced approach that al-
lows her to eat reasonably well, and doesn’t kill
herself working out every day of the week.
STAYING ACTIVE
For the most part, she relies on cardio like running, a bit
of weight training and then yoga as her stretching and
resistance regimen (which helps her keep her impressive
abs and core looking like a 20-year-old’s). She’s also
been known to jump on trampolines and dabble in circuit
training to keep her heart rate up. Klum’s motto is that
working out is easier with an accountability partner. Gym
partners are friends and motivators in one. “My best
advice,” Klum dished to Glamour, “is to workout with a
buddy. They keep you motivated and get you out of bed.”
Klum admittedly eats a generous amount of food, but she
eats nutritious foods that help fill her up (fruits and veg-
gies for fiber), eggs and skinless chicken for protein, and
watches her portions around dinnertime, careful not to eat
too much before bed, as she explained to US Weekly.
FINDING LOVE
As far as her personal life, Heidi has been thrice
married, famously to the pop singer Seal, with whom
she had children, and most recently to musician
Tom Kaulitz. He is a guitarist, singer-songwriter and
keyboard player in the bestselling rock band Tokio
Hotel. He also just happens to be 16 years her junior!
But while double standards may raise eyebrows for
these age gaps among women who are the senior
partner, Klum doesn’t sweat the questioning looks.
The couple hardly seems to care about the age difference;
but the public, especially in Hollywood, can be shallow.
“Lately, I’m being reminded more about my age
by people other than myself,” Klum recently ex-
plained to InStyle. “My boyfriend is many years
younger than me, but I don’t see the big deal.”
When asked about her recent nuptials, Klum told
USA Today, “So far, so good!” Which would
hardly count as a ringing endorsement, save
for the fact that she was ribbing us with a coy
smile and her trademark sense of humor.
Klum and Kaulitz get along famously, for several rea-
sons. Both are German natives and, on top of that,
they both have been married before. Not to mention,
they are both multifaceted entertainers with a pas-
