Seal’s Adoption of Heidi’s Daughter Leni is Complete

Seal is now officially  the legal father of Heidi Klum’s daughter Leni.

Although Seal is now officially Leni’s father, he says that not much has changed in their house. “It doesn’t make [Leni] any more or less my daughter,” he notes. “She always has been.”

Seal added, “All it means is that both Heidi and I wanted her to have the same last name as the rest of us…It was about Leni. I don’t want her to feel different because I know what that’s like, being a kind of stepson. And I don’t want that dynamic for my little girl.”

Leni’s bilogical father is Flavio Briatore who Seal calls a “gentleman” during the whole adoption process. Flavio has never been involved in Leni’s life. Seal also noted that he has  ”a tremendous amount of respect for him.”

Seal added that, “I certainly have nothing but good things to say about the way he’s been with us and he’s more than welcome to see Leni any time he wants to.”

Seal calls his family of six the “perfect life.” Heidi recently gave birth to the couple’s fourth child Lou and also have two son Henry,4 and Johan,3. “The harder you work … and visualize something, the luckier you get,” he notes. “The luck comes in the fact that Heidi and I have healthy children and we are relatively healthy, too.”

When it comes to Heidi Klum’s post-baby body and how she lost the weight so quickly he says that most of it is due to her genetics and she is a very balanced eater.  He added, ““And it’s not that she’s worked out like a fiend to get back in shape either. I find it really unattractive, women who do that. Heidi isn’t a gym buff. She’s like her mum who’s 65 and is more active than I am. I have no problem putting my feet up and watching football but my mother-in-law is always doing stuff. Heidi’s the same.”

The model spent the day with her two girls as they go shopping at the Grove mall in Los Angeles this weekend.

At only 8 weeks old Lou Samuel is already becoming an expert shopper. Heidi Klum took her newborn along with her other daughter Leni, 5, shopping at the mall. It was a girl’s day out for possibly some Christmas shopping?

Heidi held Lou close as the baby was wrapped in a pink fluffy blanket. Underneath you could see Lou was also wearing a pink hat and jumper.

Recently Heidi’s husband, singer Seal talked to Hello magazine about the arrival of their fourth child saying, “I found myself thinking, before she was born, “We’ve got three kids, how on earth am I going to find anymore love to give to another kid? ‘Then, of course she turned up at the hospital and the first time I held her in my arms, she looked up at me with this frown - which she’s definitely got from me - with a look on her face as if to say, “Oh my God, I’ve got a sneak suspicion that’s my father!”

He added, “I just fell in love at that point.”

Seal and Heidi, who recently changed her legal name from Klum to Samuel, have four children. Along with the two girls they have two boys, Henry,4 and Johan,3. Seal is currently in the process of adopting Heidi’s daughter Leni, who’s biological father is Flavio Briatore.

The couple has said that 4 kids is enough for them and they will not be having any more kids.

         

Seal Hoping to Adopt Heidi’s Daughter Leni by Christmas

Although Seal is the only father that Heidi Klum’s daughter Leni has ever known, he is not legally her father yet.

The singer is hoping to be able to adopt Leni, who’s biological father is Flavio Briatore, before Christmas this year. He has already started the legal proceedings to become her legal guardian.

Heidi and Seal have three other children together, Henry,4, Johan,3, and Lou, 2 months.

Heidi’s father Guenther is all for Seal adopting his granddaughter. He says, “Heidi, Seal and the kids have always been a happy family – in everyday life and in their heart. Then they should also be happy on paper.”

Apparently, Flavio has given his support to Heidi and Seal for Seal to adopt Leni as he has absolutely no part in her life. Flavio is currently expecting a child with his model wife Elisabetta Gregoraci.

Seal and Heidi’s relationship started before Leni was even born. He was there when Heidi gave birth and has continued to think of Leni as his daughter. Seal has said in the past, “Leni is my first child. Just like Henry I saw her take shape and move in Heidi’s body. And I was present at her birth, too. Leni is my daughter and Henry is my son. I am happy to have two healthy children and that Henry will soon be saying papa to me just like Leni does already.”

Just this month, Heidi legally changed her last name from Klum to Samuel.

There have been conflicting reports coming with one stating Heidi Klum has given birth and the other stating that she is still pregnant.

There has been no official word from Heidi or Seal or a representative for the couple, but it is being reported that Heidi Klum gave birth to her 4th child on Friday at 1am in Los Angeles. The couple has chosen the name Lou Samuel for their daughter. This is all from reports from radaronline.com

On the other side, USmagazine.com is claiming that according to their inside source, Heidi has not given birth yet and is still pregnant. According to this source, the birth has not happened yet but is definitely going to happen soon.

This will be the 4th child for the supermodel and according to her the last child. Heidi has a 5-year-old daughter with her ex Flavio Briatore and a two sons (Henry,4 and Johan,2) with her husband Seal.

Apparently we will have to wait for an official statement from Heidi or Seal to confirm that she has in fact given birth to her daughter.
