Heidi Klum and Seal renew vows in Indian-themed beach wedding


Heidi Klum, 34, and Seal, 45, return to Costa Careyes, Mexico every year to renew their vows at the same resort where they married in 2005. On May 10th they held an Indian-themed renewal ceremony and party attended by 50 guests. Heidi wore a red wedding sari for the day, according to this week’s edition of In Touch.

Last year the romantic couple held their commitment ceremony on May 13. Heidi and Seal’s first wedding on Costa Careyes was attended by just Heidi, Seal and her daughter Leni. They have since expanded their family to include boys Henry, two years and eight months, and Johan, 18 months.

Heidi revealed about two weeks ago that Seal proposed to her in a custom-made igloo he had built and outfitted in the Canadian Rockies in December, 2004. He arranged for both of them to be flown by helicopter up to the secluded igloo, which featured a bed, candles, and rose petals strewn around.

Can you imagine getting married every year? It seems like it might dilute the experience a little if you’re renewing your vows every year instead of every few years or at specific milestones in the relationship. At least it’s something incredible to look forward to. These two set the romantic bar incredibly high. If you had all that money at your disposal would you get married to your spouse every year? I think I might just go on vacation with my husband as much as possible. The honeymoon is the best part.

Seal proposed to Heidi Klum in a custom fitted igloo


I think about 90% of the women in the world wish their partner was more romantic. I tried to see if Cosmo magazine had a poll on this but I couldn’t find one. After reading this story, I suspect that closer to 100% will want their men to emulate Seal, and his big gesture to Heidi Klum.

“[Seal] took me by helicopter,” the Project Runway host, 34, tells Marie Claire’s June issue about their December 2004 vacation to the Canadian Rockies. “He had an igloo built there, and they’d brought up everything: a bed with sheets inside the igloo, rose petals everywhere, candles. Very, very romantic!”

As she goes on to describe, “There was food and champagne, and then the helicopter left. It was a little scary, too, because you’re so cut off from the world. No trees, nothing – it was hardcore. But I was ecstatic.”

People

That has to be a hard romantic gesture to top, and one of the best marriage proposals I’ve ever heard. Definitely better than TomKat’s cliché Eiffel Tower publicity stunt. Most of all, I’m impressed that Heidi managed to keep that story to herself for so long, as she and Seal were engaged in December 2004.

Seal calls paparazzi “scum” and says they “ruin people’s lives”


Seal was sure pissed off when he left Maestro’s restaurant with his wife Heidi Klum last night. He went off at the photographers trying to talk to them outside, refusing to shake a guy’s hand and calling him “scum” and a “cockroach.” As Seal is signing autographs the guy is talking to him and Seal gets more pissed off, saying the paps ruin peoples lives and that he wouldn’t want their job. Heidi seems uncomfortable and looks away while her husband is going off.

It seems to me that Seal knows this guy and has a grudge against him due to some kind of history they have together. I would bet he’s trailed Seal and Heidi before and that he has a good reason for being pissed off at this specific guy.

It’s got to suck to not be able to go out and live a normal life for some of these celebrities, and Seal gets it bad because his wife is so famous. They get photographed wherever they go and are usually very gracious and smiling for the paps. I would bet that the guy Seal is hating on has stepped over the line with him before and that he’s trying to provoke him. The photographer ended up getting footage that’s worth something because Seal got annoyed and mouthed off.

Late last year George Clooney talked about how the paparazzi were no longer content just to film celebrities and that they’re trying to create situations to get reactions. He called them “bounty hunters” and said:

“These people are being paid so much that they are willing to commit crimes, to break into your house, to cut you off in traffic, to run lights, to slam on the brakes in front of you, to get the money shot. It’s creating bounty hunters.”

He know that no one wants to hear a wealthy actor saying how rough his life is. “I am one and I don’t want to hear it. But these people are blowing through lights, driving like maniacs and they’re putting people’s lives in jeopardy, including innocent bystanders who are not participating but become part of the game.”

Seal probably isn’t just reacting to this guy yelling stupid shit to him outside a restaurant, he’s pissed because of the way that the paparazzi overstep their boundaries constantly. I hope that’s the case and that there’s nothing wrong with his relationship with Heidi. It’s also possible that he may have a different reason to be upset and is just taking it out on the photographer.

Here’s the video, thanks to Hollywood.tv.

Heidi Klum says that she was awed by Seal’s package

dbe-003880.jpg
Heidi Klum said she first met Seal after he came into a hotel lobby after working out - while he was wearing form-fitting bicycle shorts. She told Oprah in a joint interview with Seal that she saw “the whole package” and “was like, wow.”

Heidi and Seal have been married two years and have three children. They said that they keep their relationship hot by always making time for each other. Seal said “you’ve got to put each other first [before the kids]” and that “[Heidi] will always be number one for me.”

The couple recently renewed their wedding vows on May 13th at their home in Costa Careyes, Mexico. Their first wedding in Mexico in 2005 was just Heidi, Seal and Heidi’s daughter, Leni. They may have renewed their vows in order to make their commitment to each other in front of friends and family, who weren’t at the first ceremony.

Heidi and Seal work together every day in their home in California. They have a big two-person desk in a corner office that they share, and Heidi said in an earlier interview that they “spend the day working, or talking, or watch the children playing by the pool.” They have three nannies, one for each of their children: Leni, three and a half (with Heidi’s ex, Flavio Briatore), Henry, two, and Johan, 11 months.

They will soon bring their working relationship beyond their home office. Seal famously sung on the catwalk while Heidi debuted her post-baby body at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show in November, 2005. Now they’re set to sing a duet at the Victoria’s Secret show. They will perform “Wedding Day,” their duet off Seal’s upcoming album. Kanye West and the Spice Girls will also perform on the show, which will air on CBS on December 4th.

Details from People.com and USWeekly.

Heidi Klum’s Halloween Costume


Heidi Klum concealed her eight month’s pregnant belly beneath a big apple in an elaborate eve’s apple costume complete with green snake makeup. I love how she’s wearing one red boot and one snakeskin boot. Her husband Seal dressed up as Eve covered in leaves and wearing a blonde wig.

Heidi is seen at her 7th annual Halloween party at club Privilege in LA. Other attendees included Alyssa Milano, Elisha Cuthbert and Minnie Driver.
