Supermodel Heidi Klum has made a rare public comment about her ex-husband, singer Seal, praising his resilience as he continues to inspire many with his journey living with lupus.
Speaking about the award-winning musician, Klum reflected on how Seal has handled the autoimmune disease with remarkable strength over the years.
Seal was diagnosed with lupus at the age of 21. The condition left him with the distinctive facial scars he has become known for, but the Grammy-winning singer has previously revealed that he eventually embraced them after overcoming his insecurities.
“I quickly realised this body is not who we are,” Seal once said while reflecting on his diagnosis and the scars caused by the disease.
Klum’s comments have drawn praise from fans, many describing them as a touching show of respect despite the couple ending their marriage years ago.
The former couple was married for seven years before separating in 2012. Together, they share four children. Leni, Henry, Johan and Lou have continued to co-parent while maintaining mutual respect.
Seal’s openness about living with lupus has also earned admiration over the years, with many fans applauding how he transformed a deeply personal health challenge into a message of confidence, self-acceptance and resilience.
