It seems ... Heidi "a little" busy, because Heidi Klum was married not so long ago. "It's normal for me," she says, shrugging her shoulders before sending another tartar of tuna into her mouth. "I know how to organize everything and come out victorious." We almost forgot! In 2009, this woman, who has given birth to four children during the last six years, has released an album of her photos, in which she is depicted partially or completely naked. The question arises: how can you combine so incompatible at first glance things - the birth of children and an amazing figure, for which Heidi even received the nickname Body?
Her partner, presenter Tim Gann says that, in principle, this is unrealistic. "Heidi's clothes for pregnant women are perfect," he says, and adds, laughing: "But if people think that wearing it will look like Heidi, I'm afraid they'll be disappointed."
Physically, Heidi may seem like a superman, but in some ways it is no different from us: she too was disappointed. After participating and winning the model competition in his homeland, in Germany, the 18-year-old Heidi went to conquer Milan, Paris and Miami. Her agency paid for all the costs of moving and living, eagerly waiting for when the invested costs begin to pay off, and ... did not wait. "No one offered me any work, I simply did not have a livelihood," she admits.
In the fact that Heidi did not give up before she landed at the airport in New York at the age of 20, two features of her character are equally to blame: determination and pride. "I lived in a crappy apartment, I did not know a single person in the city, and my English was just terrible," she says now, and her German accent grows with the speed of speech, but this was my last stop, and I thought: it is necessary to try even more, it is necessary to stay even longer.I just could not go back home not defeated. "
And her tenacity paid off. Small proposals began to arrive, laying the foundation for two landmark events in the life of Heidi, who lifted her to the pedestal of supermodels: shooting in a swimsuit for the special edition of Sports Illustrated magazine and going to the catwalk in Victoria's Secret underwear. Life gave Heidi a very important lesson, which she remembered forever: "Never give up before you make sure you've tried everything."
What did not you know about Heidi to this day:
She never watches the show "Project Podium" and never reads journal articles about herself.
The easiest way to get to know Heidi from a bad side is to be late for a meeting with her.
She never consulted a therapist, but ... she would like to, as soon as she has free time.
The last film on which she burst into tears, "My Guardian Angel." During pregnancy she practically did not work.
She always has a notebook in her bathroom near the shower, because that's where she usually decides what else she should add to the list of cases.
This philosophy of Heidi also follows in family life. She lived 5 years in marriage with hairdresser-stylist Rick Pipino, before filing for divorce in 2002. She was 24 years old when she first went to the altar, and no self-confidence. "I did not know who I was and what I wanted to be," Heidi said.
Soon after the divorce was filed, she met with Italian businessman Flavio Briatore, whom she met for less than a year before parting. The problem is that after the novel with Briatore Heidi became pregnant. It must be awful - to remain virtually abandoned, also with the prospect of becoming a single mother. But Heidi, as always, masterfully passes around the negative aspects: "I had to think about the future." What was then passed. "
Soon after the break with Flavio Briatore, Heidi met Silom - in the foyer of the Mercer New York Hotel. Pretty soon she told him about her pregnancy, and ... it did not scare him away. On the contrary, the Force immediately took the responsibility to help Heidi with the baby and offered to create a family. "It was so unexpected - to meet a man, absolutely perfect in my eyes," - recalls Heidi.
Despite the warnings of friends not to rush to formulate relations, Heidi Klum married in May 2005, a year and a half after their acquaintance. Since then, they have led the tradition of updating each year's data to each other before the altar of the vow. Last year, the couple arranged a wedding party in the "Zhlobsky" style, to which the groom wore a wig with a haircut a la cascades. Such tricks and elaborate costumes for every Halloween, with which the Seal and Heidi are famous, involuntarily pushed us to the question: are they fond of dressing outside the door of their bedroom?
"To be honest, I'm not a fan of disguises," says Heidi, "if he wanted to try, I could not refuse, but the idea itself seems to me some kind of alien." She pauses for a moment, weighing all the pros and cons in her mind, and continues: "Maybe it will come later, in 5 or 10 years, and I'll start buying all sorts of funny outfits. But for now it's good for us."
Marriage is another sphere in which Heidi's perseverance came in handy. She always insists on finding time for only two of them - for her and the Force, even if it's only a couple of hours. "I'm the initiator and the tester," she admits, "For example, I say," Come on, we'll have supper! ", And he says he's very tired, but then, when we are already sitting at the table and talking, he says:" I'm so glad , that you pulled me out. "
Certainly, it is good to have millions of dollars, a platoon of nannies and parents ready to give up everything and come from Germany to understand grandchildren. But the friends of Heidi and Silas say that their love is not determined by money or luxury. "They are perfect for each other," says the star of the series "Desperate Housewives" Kyle McLachlan, who has been close friends with Heidi for about 10 years.
She found such a man who is equally creative and a devoted father, moreover, always ready to conquer the world, in a good sense of the word. "
All this looks like a fairy tale ... However, in our opinion, this fairy tale therefore exists, that Heidi knows at what price it is embodied in life. Anyone who has experienced firsthand that before you surrender, you must try, try and try, also know that love and life require enormous work. Nevertheless, the maturity of Heidi - moral and physical - serves as a guarantee that she never overdo it in anything to the detriment of the rest. "You can not be sure that it will always be like this, and not otherwise," she says of her relationship with Silom, sometimes people change, and if this happened to you, admit it and go further. "
So far, Heidi is not going anywhere except to go home. "What more do I want?" - asks one of the most coveted women in the world, the mother of four children. Oh, no, after all, the desire is: "A hot shower before going to bed - that would be wonderful."
