Heidi Klum on Seal as a father
Model Heidi Klum, 34, was asked to describe her husband Seal, 44, as a father to their children Leni, 3 ½, Henry, 2, and Johan, 13 months. Here’s the piece she contributed to the latest issue of Us Weekly.
Seal is a wonderful dad. He knows how to have fun and really enjoy our family time together. The kids love his music! They always dance up a storm when their papa’s music comes on.
Henry and Leni learned how to swim this summer, which is huge for a 2- and a 3-year old. They just had their first skiing lesson. We’re so proud to see them ski: We’re the parents at the bottom of the bunny hill with the video camera.
And Johan is talking now. His first word was ‘roooaaww’ — he roars like a big lion. Then came ‘mama’ and ‘papa.’
Seal’s favorite activity with the kids is playing horsey. He crawls on the floor, they all hop on his back and he goes on all fours around the whole house!

I LOVE this family! I love how Seal claims Leni as his daughter and everytime I have seen Heidi and Seal on talk shows you can clearly see how devoted they are to their family and to each other! I wish them and their beautiful family ALL the best!

I can’t say how much I really like this family enough! Seal is a REAL man/father, especially for taking on another man’s child and raising her as his own. I wish them lasting love and happiness!

I really love this family. They doing great being famous and raising the kids still having a normal life. Its good to see that Seal doesnt make any differences between Leni and his own kids.

I really <3 this family!! The way he so effortless claims Leni as his own, how he doesn't discriminate between her and the boys, how when he looks at her you can tell by the love in his eyes that she's HIS daughter...just makes me melt! He is a true father in all aspects!
Where o where can I find a fine and upstanding man like Seal?

It is so obvious how much they love their 3 children and that is how I view them, as their 3 children!
Seal is British and in England there is a well known comedian called Lenny Henry I always wonder if that factored into the naming of the kids – Leni and Henry!
Sarah’s note: Leni is pronounced almost like Lay-knee though!

Seriously, Seal is another man I wouldn’t mind cloning. I love how he is with their children, and Johan’s first few words: cuteness.

Seal is a nice guy, seems to be a wonderful father and fabulous husband. But he is also an extremely talented singer. And Heidi is such a beautiful person inside and out. I would love to meet this family.
