For Heidi Klum, the modeling gene really works in the family.
Klum’s son Henry Samuel, whom she shares with former husband Seal, made her track debut at the Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week on Tuesday. The 19 -year -old young man, dressed in a black combination without back, opened the Lena Erziak Show in the French capital.
Klum, who obtained his departure from Showbiz as a model in his native Germany, shared a video of Samuel walking on the track on Instagram.
“If proud of you Henry – opening the Lena Erziak Haute Couture Show in Paris ❤️❤️❤️”, wrote Klum.
Samuel’s older sister, Leni Klum, also followed the modeling traces of their mother. The 20 -year -old started her fashion career in 2020, Klum playing her assistant in her very first magazine shoot for Vogue Germany.

Although Leni had several modeling opportunities as they grow up, Klum preferred to keep it out of the public’s eyes. However, when she was 16, Klum judged that Leni “old enough” to pursue a modeling career.

“It was only a matter of time before trying to become a model myself. The first offer came when I was only 12 or 13 years old, from a brand that I liked to wear: Brandy Melville.

The mother-daughter duo has collaborated on numerous campaigns over the years, including a photo shoot with the Italian lingerie brand Intimissimi in October 2024 and a family advertising campaign featuring Klum’s mother, Erna in November, of the same year.
In an interview with Vogue Germany published on Tuesday, Samuel shared the advice that his mother and sister gave him before his model debut.
“Leni advised me to look straight and walk as if I had balanced a book on my head,” Samuel said at the point of sale of fashion in a translated quote. “My mother told me to do my best and don’t forget to have fun doing it.”
