After playing a little back and forth with the media, and maybe holding some crisis talks this weekend, Heidi Klum and Seal have officially announced their separation. It’s sad to hear of such a well liked celebrity couple with four kids splitting, especially one that seemed as solid and loving as these two. Here’s their statement, given to People, in which they confirm the news that they’re splitting:
In an exclusive statement to PEOPLE, the Project Runway host and the singer say:
“While we have enjoyed seven very loving, loyal and happy years of marriage, after much soul-searching we have decided to separate.
“We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart. This is an amicable process and protecting the well-being of our children remains our top priority, especially during this time of transition.
“We thank our family, friends, and fans for their kind words of support. And for our children’s sake, we appreciate you respecting our privacy.”
The couple are parents to Leni, 7, Henry, 6, Johan, 5, and Lou, 2.
[From People]
This leaves us wondering why, and assuming that something serious must have happened to break up what seemed from the outside to be a happy marriage. Seal has been on tour and Heidi has been working both in America and in Germany, which suggests too much time apart and also the possibility of infidelity. According to a new report in TMZ, which broke the story of Heidi and Seal’s impending divorce, there was no cheating going on and Heidi was just fed up with Seal’s temper:
Heidi Klum is divorcing Seal largely because she has had it with his volcanic temper … TMZ has learned.
Sources directly connected with the couple tell us … Heidi’s decision to divorce Seal has nothing to do with a third person. There is NO issue of infidelity.
But Seal’s inability to control his anger has become too much for Heidi to take, in no small part because it’s affecting their children.
TMZ broke the story that Heidi will divorce Seal, and we’ve learned this was not a snap decision. As one source said, “It was a long time in coming.”
We’re also told … their careers also played a part in Heidi’s decision. She has become a mega-entrepreneur and extremely rich, and that professional evolution has created a distance between them.
For his part, Seal has a new album coming out and he’s about to launch an international tour.
We’re told Heidi and Seal are still living under the same roof, but that will change very soon.
[From TMZ]
I believe that Seal has a nasty temper, because I remember reporting in 2008 about a video of him going off on the paparazzi and calling them “scum” for seemingly no reason. (You can still see the video here.) Seal was outside paparazzi hotspot Madeo with Heidi. Celebrities know they’ll be photographed there and it’s not like anyone was following those two or finding them at an out-of-the-way place. The photographers there were very respectful, telling Seal they liked his music and asking to shake his hand. Seal refused and said “why would I shake hands with scum?” He then got in an extended argument with the guys and claimed that paparazzi ruined lives. Heidi was kind of cowering there while Seal went off. To me it was a rare glimpse that all wasn’t as it seemed in their relationship.
British outlet The Sun points us to a recent interview with Seal in which he admits that he has issues with Heidi. He said “We certainly have differences of opinion. I mean, she’s German and I’m English, so if I said we didn’t have differences of opinion, no one would believe that.” He then went on to say they disagree about Christmas, as Heidi follows the German tradition of opening all the presents on Christmas Eve. “I just don’t see the logic in it, it’s Christmas, ie, Jesus Christ? And last time I checked, Christ was born on 25 December. But you know what, pick your battles. That’s one I don’t bother with.
“I’m going to make this T-Shirt up saying, ‘you can either be right or be happy’.”
We’ve also heard that Seal has been partying a lot and The Sun reported that he’s spent hardly any time with Heidi. They quote a source who claims “The marriage ended months ago in reality. They rarely saw each other and it wouldn’t be unusual for them to go months without spending any real quality time together. Ships that pass in the night would be an overstatement.”
Friday On Twitter, Seal posted a bizarre close-up photo of what looks like his arm with the caption “The End.” The Daily Mail mentions that Seal’s arm has a tattoo of angel wings on it, (It was such a strange picture that it was hard to see), which he probably got in honor of former Victoria’s Secret model Heidi. Tweeting that photo is the kind of douche move you would expect from someone like Ashton Kutcher, but it does suggest that Heidi pulled the plug, not Seal. So what happened exactly? Was Seal just too combative for Heidi as outlets are claiming? I’m thinking there’s probably more to it than that.

Why is Seal getting all the blame. I don’t know a lot of gossip about either one of them but anyone showing a temper to the paps I will give them a pass and not think that means they have a temper about everything. For some reason I get a feeling he is a good stand up guy and it is Heidi that is the one not happy anymore and he probably hasn’t been happy with her either. I tend to agree with the comments I read yesterday on here and she was running from the flavio disaster where she wanted to be the billionaire’s kept girl and decided to go in the extreme other way and Seal happened to be it and it worked for 7 years.

Honestly I got that vibe as well. I felt like she perhaps was the one who stepped out on the marriage and not because of anything he did. But I guess the truth will come out eventually.

ITA, I think that’s awesome insight that she probably went in exactly the opposite direction from her last relationship, that is actually a “real” thing.
Heidi has become pretty damn insufferable after her years on Project Runway. Seal may have a temper–and so it goes with testerone–but he’s hardly Sean Penn-ing it up out there, and he’s never said anything but wonderful things about his wife and family. I can’t help getting the impression, from Heidi herself, that she bores easily (and that may be mutual!). Her permanently-in-high-school behavior/speech makes me think he’s likely not the source of the problem.
It’s just so strange; when did they even have time to grow apart between the massive parties, constant outings and vow renewals and vacations?!
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Sounds like they basically saw each other 4 times per year: their vow renewal; Halloween; and their ski & beach vacations. (Not that hard to fathom.)
She’s working in Germany & the US; he’s preparing for a tour, was working on a new album, and is headed to Australia to work on some vocal/talent show.

I know, but on this site, 9 times out of 10, its going to be represented as the guy is a douchebag and the woman did no wrong. I think its both their faults, she IS a model after all and he a pop singer. I totally believe their both narcissistic and petty, it comes with the package of celebrity.

Oh, please with all this double standard bs. Racism and Sexism are the main things people start screaming when somebody is saying somebody about someone they don’t like. CB has wrote plenty of articles about Russell and Katy Perry splitting putting all the blame on Katy. I don’t remember seeing a bunch of ‘double standard’ talk then. Same thing with Kim Kardashian. In fact, all the comments were rightfully of people agreeing with her. But, now when she is saying Seal is the blame for this split, all the men want to play the victim card. Give me a effing break. Kaiser is pretty fair and balance which is why people love this site. But, in true idiots fashion, when somebody isn’t saying what they think they should, pull the racist/sexist card and call foul.

JC was born March 28th 4BC. Which makes no sense, but deal with it Seal!

Thank you, Tapioca. If I remember correctly, over 1500 years ago early Christians changed Christmas to Dec. 25 to coincide with the winter solstice festivals celebrated by Non-Christians. I suppose it was done to lessen the difficulty of converting the “pagan” populace.
You didn’t check hard enough, Seal.
Whatever happens, I hope these two behave maturely for their children’s sake.

Jesus was born around spring/summer but since all the celebrations where in the winter they decided to move it to December. When the Roman winter solstice would take place.

I don’t think it will be such a strain as long as the ‘adults’ play fair. They both work a lot, not just Seal. I think the kids will probably see him as much as they are already used to, summer, holidays, etc. Hopefully neither one of them neglects the kids. Also, Leni is much better off that she has no contact with her bio dad as he is SCUM, and Seal is her true father, as it was him who was the one present for her birth and has always raised her as his own.

i agree. and when they asked her bio dad about leni he said well she has a wonderful family now. idk why people wouldn’t want to see their own children no matter who their parent is. but since he is not interested in being her parent he doesn’t deserve to be anyway.

Bad temper? Hmmm. Is he violent or abusive? It’s just incredibly odd that, as people have mentioned, a couple who renews vows every year would suddenly break up. Can’t he work on his temper?

Well, someone can’t just “work on their temper” if they don’t think they have a problem with it. People act as if it’s no big deal if some has a anger issues, goes off into a ranting, horrible rage, as long as they aren’t physically violent. Just words, right?
Perhaps Heidi doesn’t want her daughters to think it is acceptable for a man to yell at them, just because he “has a temper”? And she wouldn’t want her sons to act that way either.

I agree TG, there is something that is not right with Seal getting the brunt of this. Also, that comment about money from a source was also a low blow(this is People, so it had to be approved by Heidi’s camp), I am pretty sure Heidi was worth more when they got together and it’s not like Seal is a slouchin the career dept. This one is sad one for sure.

People also tend to forget that Seal is hugely successful, many of us (me included) mistakenly think that if you aren’t as famous in the US) then you are nothing but there is a whole world out there and Seal is hugely popular elsewhere same for some of the B, C and D List celebs in this country we can’t believe it but in Japan or Europe, or elsewhere they are popular too.

I don’t blame Seal. His temper, maybe the last year because he wasn’t happy. That annual renewal every year was Heidi’s idea Seal said and he went along with it to make her happy.
People romanticize having babies back to back and a big family, but that many children under the age of six or so puts a strain on a marriage and then you load the house with nannies, cooks, security. Heidi is driven. She is building her business empire. I used to see her talking about her newest and latest business venture and wonder how she did it all with four little ones and kept a husband happy. Superwoman I thought. Seal toured way less in the beginning of his marriage. But last year and this year he is touring more. He should. He has a career that he has to keep alive and touring to promote his albums is part of it. So maybe he resented Heidi’s growing empire and the pressure of four children and he’s back on the road and she resents that.
It was only a matter of time really when you look at it. I believe they were madly in love, but Heidi still proclaiming their great marriage not too long ago irritates me. I hate people painting a perfect picture on their marriage when it’s not true.
Heidi’s first husband was older and nothing great. Then she dates that playboy ugly, much older wealthy man who gets her pregnant and dumps her. I believe Seal was the hottest and best thing that has ever happened to her. And for Seal, he always kept his life very private and never talked about his relationships, even the longtime one with the German model before Heidi. So to be so public with this one, I believe he was crazy about Heidi. Heidi is probably getting out because she sees the writing on the wall and doesn’t want to share any more of her wealth she is building, although, Seal is a millionaire also. I believe Seal has been passive aggressive and probably secretly wanted out.

I agree with all of that. They’re certainly both at fault here, and Seal seems like a great guy, especially looking at her exes. Things just fall apart sometimes, I guess.

Great songwriting. Seal is so talented.
Committment (Seal VI) had about four great songs. Otherwise, it was so sappy and generic adult contemporary. Get tortured Seal back out in the world and writing some great songs and working with Trevor Horn who brings out Seal’s brilliance.

Everyone keeps saying that they feel so bad for the kids. Staying together for kids isn’t always the best plan.
My parents have, and my brother and I have seen years and years of fighting and tears. They were never abusive towards each other or us, but it isn’t healthy for the kids to see their parents struggling to stay together for their sake either. It makes them feel like it’s their fault that they are unhappy. Things have gotten a lot better with my parents, but it’s taken a long time. My childhood was stressful, and in some ways it would have been better with a clean break.
I’m sure both parents will be involved with the children, and really with the way that these two travel so much, it probably won’t be too drastic a change.

If you’re going to divorce, it’s better when the children are young because past the initial pain, there’s not the awful memories of the breakup. My nephew with my sister divorcing when he was three, although, he had some problems in the beginning, doesn’t remember his parents ever being together. My friend’s parents divorced when she was 12, and it has really affected her.

I think their kids will be fine. It might be rough on the older kid, since she’s seven, but still. My parents separated when I was 3 or 4, my brother was 1 or 2. I can remember asking mom when we would all live together again almost every night, but I saw my dad all the time. We’d see him almost every day from what I remember. If they had just divorced then, I wouldn’t have realized that it was something different, and my brother certainly wouldn’t.
It was a lot of stress growing up to see them fighting, but again, now they’re pretty much fine. They have a squabble here and there, but they’re a lot better. In some ways it would have been better if they’d just divorced, but I know it was good for my bro (who’s autistic) to have them both around, I guess.

I know what you mean. Growing up, I thought my parents hated each other and for years I wished they would get divorced so that they could both find happiness. I’d cry every time they fought. Those years took a toll on me. The strange thing is, now that we’re all out of the house, they are blissfully happy (maybe we were little terrors). I am glad now that they are still together, 30+years. It’s really nice to have our whole family together for Christmas and other holidays, to feel like we have a real sense of “home.”
Report this comment as spam or abuse
And that’s what I appreciate, having a sense of home. I suspect some of my depression and anxiety comes from the years of crying over their fighting and panicking over what would happen, but I’m alright with that in the long run, I guess. But I do worry way too much over my long term relationship with my boyfriend, but luckily he’s a great guy and he tries to quell my worries. It’s one of those things that might have been healthier for me in some ways, but worse in others. I just appreciate the fact now that they’re doing so much better.
And I think I’m a stronger person for it in a lot of ways, too.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
I’m sorry for all of the fighting you had to endure growing up, and I completely understand. But my parents did divorce and it only got worse afterwards. Divorce doesn’t necessarily lessen the fighting and if the parents can’t get it together to fight when the kids aren’t around, you are still very much exposed to it. On the other hand, I have a friend who had a much more similar experience to yours and she says the same thing: that her parents should have just divorced, they were pretty much abusive to one another.
In any case, I completely agree that our early life experiences having made us stronger. And I wish you health and happiness!
Report this comment as spam or abuse
It’s really interesting to read that perspective. My parents were so ugly to each other that we used to hide out at the neighbours as much as we could. It was a huge relief all round when they divorced in my teens, and we were instantaneously a happy family post divorce. No traumas, no adult issues, no more fighting etc. They are now best friends, weird i know, but they are happily married to other people and acknowledge that marriage, to each other, was the worst idea they ever had.
And so based on my personal experience, i would say that staying in an unhappy marriage for the sake of the kids is not a good idea. However, based on your experience i would conclude that it depends on how the adults conduct themselves during and post marriage.

This is why I hope to raise my boys to understand that marrying for love is warm and fuzzy, but love is the last thing you need to be worried about when entering marriage. You need to understand, bar a very few major no-nos, marriage is and should be for life. It is always a work in progress and once the initial love-lust fades, you’ve got to be able to parlay that into different forms of commitment.
It’s a contract and before you have kids you’ve got to be sure that it’s a contract you’re willing to stick out. Touring, empire building, and all that other junk is just excuses. They were doing all this before they got married and new the deal as do all celebrities. I just wish people really thought these things through before they bring all these children into the equation.

Just my two cents, but Heidi is pretty horrid.

Killed our whole budget! And the proceeds of the campaign were for a much beloved health cause. Stank!

Anyway, I can totally buy this. Seal is a hot tempered DICK. I saw that video and there is no way he can turn that temper on and off and only use it for good. Especially when the paps weren’t even doing anything but asking questions. Is it hard to say no comment or not say anything? I am the last person to defend those paps but in that situation his reaction was over the top. He comes off as a loose canon that will snap w/o notice.

I guess I disagree. Being stalked by paps, light bulbs flashing in their faces, I can see on a bad day running into them losing it. He’s not the first guy to be irritated by paps bothering their children and losing it.
Someone once shot the on rush of paps from the star’s vantage point to show what it was like. It was assaulting. I couldn’t believe it.

I said I am the last one too defend the paps because I know how outrageous they can be. But, in that actual video, he was doing too much. It wasn’t called for.

Heidi probably has enough money now that she doesn’t need a rich husband anymore.
I remember when she dated that old ugly billionare. What did she see in him? Money. Which means she aint that far removed from a regular ho. Suddenly, a woman who up until then knew how to practice birth control, got pregnant. The billionaire who didn’t want kids, didn’t change his mind just because she got knocked up. So she went running to Seal.
She seems like a user, but the people being used have to have some value. As I said, my guess is, she just doesn’t need Seal anymore.

Heidi was already rich when she married him, so I don’t have a clue as to what you are going on about and I suspect you don’t either. If all she cared about was money, she would never have let Seal adopt her daughter thus cutting off those huge child support checks. Somebody obsessed w/superficial and materialistic crap would never have married someone that looked like that.

Heidi was probably as rich as Seal was. I don’t see her as a user. She was crazy about Seal. But she did fight with that older man, Flavio, over money for the girl and paternity. I thought they reached a big, lump sum settlement on the little girl, though he didn’t want to and wouldn’t be involved in her life. I can’t remember the details.

Real class act. Gets pregnant by an older billionaire(says a lot about her priorities). Total attention ho. Becomes way more wealthy and famous than Seal, so she thinks she’s too good for him. Pulls an Ashton Kutcher by leaking it to the press that it’s because of Seal’s temper. Poor innocent Heidi. Seal bent over backwards for her doing those stupid marriage vow renewals and all if her show off ” look at me” events. He’s better off without her. The kids will be better off not being raised to think that that is how a normal relationship functions.

When he dated that German super model (and I mean a real super model who was part of the Cindy Crawford crowd. Heidi was never a super model, a Victoria Secret’s model), he never talked about his private life and never discussed her even though they were together for years. He was very, very private. Heidi was effervescent and so outgoing, I think he fell in love with that part of her and embraced their super star couple status, but maybe as the years went by he was tired of the publicity on his private life and reverted back to who he used to be. I don’t know. What you’re first attracted to in a person is sometimes what annoys you later.

Her name is Tatjana Patitz. She was the most exotic and unearthly blond beauties of the true supermodel era. One of my favorites. Her body was also unreal.

Like Heidi says in Project Runway, “Sometimes you’re in and sometimes you’re out…Auf Wiedersehen Seal!”

Back in the 90s, I thought of Seal as being an extremely gentle person, maybe he just had an awesome PR team at the time. However he overdid it with being a dick to that pap back in 06, a simple no and “f*** off” would have probably sufficed. I can see him having a temper in certain situations (like when his privacy is invaded)but I feel like this is Heidi hitting early because she has something to hide.

You cannot sustain a marriage whilst living in 5 different countries, rarely at the same time. And meeting up for your annual vow renewal, Halloween, and ski/beach vacations is not enough.
He’s going on tour (or so I’ve read), going to Australia to do some version AI or The Voice or whatever, and worked on a new album.
She’s doing shows in the US and Germany.
My opinion? They both wanted to be free during long separations for some strange, minus the “scandal” of still being married at the time.

Couldn’t agree more. Based on interview he gave to Ellen, and factoring in Celeb BS, i read it as they are simply taking a break from each other because Australia isn’t somewhere a person can commute to easily, and her work commitments are going to keep her in US and Germany.
Also in that break, possibly acknowledging possibility of cheating or other difficulties which would tear them apart should they remain married.
I bet once that tour and Australia are done, they will renew their wedding vows.

Did you flip through Seal’s photos on tadaa.net? Most of them seem quite personal, some have interesting captions, like this one from 28 days ago:
“Now It’s All About The Kids. (Xmas skiing holidays used to be about jumping out of helicopters. Now it’s all about getting kids into ski school. How great can life get?)”

Wow the end didn’t take long, thought they would have dragged it out for another few weeks to get more publicity like Demi and Ashton did, celebrities and the stupid games they play. Way to go TMZ you got the scoop on this one and before their stupid publicist could issue a statement to that celebrity ass kisser People magazine.

You can not fix a ragaholic, (many say he is) & the effect of his rages on their poor little kids souls has to end. Heidi can not change his behavior but she can remove/save herself and the kids from this kind of tyranny.

I smell a rat on this one. I think this might be a publicity stunt for promotion of his album. Most splits are announced on a Friday and not with a “we’re thinking about it” pre-official-announcement.
The excuse of temper is PERFECT because that leaves an easy reentry back in to the marriage. He can say he’s seeing therapy for his anger issues, rake in the cash and laugh all the way to the bank.

It’s funny how Celebitchy links a video from this site showing his anger at a paparazzi as proof of the anger story being true and that all wasn’t right even back then; yet, when you read Celebitchy’s take on the video back then CB was on Seal’s side and had a pretty good take on it, which I tend to agree with. It was probably a particular pap who bugged Seal all the time. Paps are the scum of the earth.

And during that video leaving the restaurant, it was shown today on an entertainment show that a pap yelled out to him, nobody would care about you if you weren’t with Heidi, trying to get a rise out of him. I guess they did.

I’d never fault ANYONE for chewing out a paparazzi, or even attacking one. The paps are scum. I didn’t realize how bad they were til that awful E show was on years ago; they were calling female celebrities the c-word and such to get a reaction.

I haven’t watched the “temper” video BUT I have to say if someone loses their temper, even disproportionately, in one instant it does not make them a rage-oholic! I don’t know much about Heidi or Seal but I’m certainly not going to condemn either one for this divorce without a better reason then “he’s said to have a bad temper”. That doesn’t seem fair or justified to me.
Lastly, the constant talk about how happy they were used to annoy me. The in-your-face over the top stuff just got on my nerves. So I was really surprised at how saddening I find their separation. Wish they would get back together and annoy me some more

They just struck me as a couple who were immature and childish, not to mention weird, especially with the annual renewal of their vows, as if they expire after 365 days.

I’m sorry, but I refuse to believe she does not also have a temper.
I’m part Irish (and a Taurus) and hubs is part Puerto Rican, and I’d say our tempers are pretty much evenly matched.
Though I am the more stubborn of us two.

I think “temper” issues could be code for violence issues. It sounds like a red flag. Not to start mayhem, but it looked like Leni had a bruise under her eye in one of the pics on Celebitchy recently. Is it possible the children are affected by his “temper” because he hits them?

not spending enough time together didn’t break up George and Barbara Bush when he was flying planes in the Pacific fighting the Japanese – the same goes for all the soldiers who were overseas for YEARS nevermind the months that Heidi Klum and Seal recently spent separately – marriages have survived concentration camps after all!

If it is because Seal has a volatile temper, then it’s been irresponsible of both to have kids, much less so many kids in such a short time.

Interesting article from a source. This sounds reasonable for the split.

I’m not surprised because I felt that Heidi Klum kept trying to push the relationship into the spolight too much. Relationships like that never last. Look at Eva Longoria who did the same thing with her relationship with Tony Parker. The real relationships are more low key.

I’ve seen a video where Seal went off, too…while Heidi just jumped and did what he said. From what I saw, he definitely did appear to have anger issues. That may only be a part of their problems, but living with someone who exhibits these traits can be difficult. You could grow apart, definitely. I’ve always witnessed Heidi as being fairly well balanced and easy going compared to him. She probably put up with a lot over time, but this kind of thing has an expiration date, sorry to say.

Wasn’t there a recent BI that could be those two? About a split being “amicable” because hubby knew a secret about wife’s Dad (allegedly a closeted angry bitter gay men)?

I believe that ny article about the personalities issue. I knew a couple like that and their marriage eventually imploded; two big strong personalities…sometimes that just doesn’t work and if you have kids, it can really stress them out, or make them neurotic or whatever. I guess there’s a differnce between big personalities and big egos, so maybe having big egos is where it gets bad for little kids being around.
anyway, all this trash talk about Seal just doesn’t seem right…it seems too calculated and mean and … I don’t know. but I can see Heidi being difficult too despite her personae.

I agree. Seal was set to be on Ellen. He didn’t cancel. She asked him about the split up and he sang one of his new songs off his Soul2 album. It will air tomorrow, but there’s a transcript of the interview online and he was very moving about the split-up and his love and respect for her and about their children.

They’ve at 7 years, there’s a timeline. 7 years, 17 years, many marriages crumble at these points. They can be worked through and come out stronger, depends on the couple. This couple doesn’t seem to be one of them. Sad.

boohoo..so selfish…they should have gotten a dog and cat instead of children. I’m so sick of people treating marriage as a casual arrangement..if you love and respect each other than do the hardwork and fix it.
