After her divorce from Seal, the ravishing German top model moved on pretty quickly, with a man that many of us aren't familiar with. His name is Tom Kaulitz. Hey, why judge celebrities for dating people a little less famous than they are? Although Kaulitz might not be a household name, he is a celebrity, so the supermodel’s new hubby is a lot more than a pretty face!
We think that everyone should just let them be happy and leave them in peace, but if you’re really dying to know more about her new man, we have some information for you that we think you’ll want to see.
Until recently, most of their relationship has been kept relatively private, which is surprising, considering how big of a star Heidi Klum is. The 'Queen of Halloween' is currently enjoying the honeymoon phase of her relationship. While she does that, we’ll talk a little about her and her husband.
Here are a few things you don’t know about the adorable couple.
1 Kaulitz Is A Guitarist
Now that we're ready to tell you which band he plays in, you’re probably going to jump off your chair! Remember that band from the early 2000s - Tokio Hotel? Well, Kaulitz is the German pop-rock band’s guitarist. He’s certainly changed, but he still knows how to strum a guitar and steal hearts!
They Have A 16-Year Age Gap
The 'legs for days' model is unfazed by the 16-year age gap. No, Klum doesn’t care what people think! To us, that’s a breath of fresh air, but many probably roll their eyes at the couple. Klum is 46 while Kaulitz is the “dirty thirty.” If they don’t mind, why should anybody else? Plus, who could actually tell there’s such an age difference when Heidi looks so young?
Third Time’s A Charm
Hopefully this time, she got it right - we’re totally rooting for these two! This America’s Got Talent judge wasn’t so lucky in her past relationships; she's best known for her marriage to singer, Seal, which didn't last. This time, we can tell it’s true love. Her first marriage was to a 'celebrity hairdresser' named Ric Pipino.
It’s Not The First Time Kaulitz Married A Model
It’s not the first time that the German rocker got involved with a model. Before Klum came along, Kaulitz was coupled up with another model, Ria Sommerfeld. He started dating the beauty queen in 2009, they ended up getting married, and that only lasted a little over a year before he filed for divorce.
They’re Very Much The Same People
They may have quite an age difference, but the two are a match made in heaven. Klum is constantly gushing over her prince on social media, showing off pictures of the two just relaxing in bed or having a fabulous time out. It’s clear the two are both free-spirited, with a similar zest for life.
They Had A Secret Wedding
Imagine being an A-lister and pulling off a secret wedding? Surprise! Heidi Klum fooled us and was able to pull off an entirely private event with her husband. The two had a fairytale wedding and none of us had the slightest clue. The nuptials took place in February 2019, in the beautiful and sunny California. Wait, where were the paparazzi?
They’re Both German
If you didn’t know by now, Heidi Klum is German. Well, surprisingly, none of the men she was in a committed relationship with in the past were of the same background, but her third husband is. The musician, who speaks three languages – English, French and German – is a German, just like Klum.They Dated For Less Than A Year
The two lovebirds quickly moved on from their previous relationships and found each other. Gathering from the way Klum has spoken of her new man, the two instantly hit off and there were fireworks from the start. However, we believe that the older you get, the quicker you know when someone’s made for you, and it didn’t take long for the duo to figure that out.
He’s A Twin
Wait, what? Is there another man out there, besides Jason Momoa, who looks like Tom Kaulitz? Yes, because Kaulitz is a twin! If you’re a fan of Tokio Hotel, or vaguely remember the band, you may recall the name, Bill Kaulitz. Bill is the lead singer of the band and happens to be his twin. We’re sure Klum doesn’t get confused, though.
They Met On Germany’s Next Top Model
According to US Weekly, the pair were introduced to each other by a mutual friend. Can we high-five the “friend” who played matchmaker for these two? The two Germans were introduced on set and made things official quickly after. We can only assume it was love at first sight.
Klum’s Kids Helped With The Proposal
We are totally gushing right now! According to People, Klum’s four children were little helpers when it came to making the engagement happen. And it gets better...on Christmas Eve morning, while the supermodel was laying in bed, Kaulitz and the children planned a 'breakfast in bed' proposal. So sweet and romantic – take notes!
Her Husband Doesn’t Come To AGT
Kaulitz certainly supports his wifey, but you surely haven’t seen him make an appearance on America's Got Talent. According to Talent Recap, he doesn’t surprise her on the set because the couple prefers to watch the show while snuggling up in bed together. Either way, Klum has her 'Tom' necklace!
It’s The First Time Klum Feels She Has A Partner
Although it’s not the first time that Klum has been in love or married, she feels totally different about her marriage to the musician. Klum has said, as per Daily Mail, that it’s the “first time she's experienced "what it's like to have a partner". Ouch! We feel bad for Seal and Pipino. Go, Klum - we’re so happy you’re finally feeling that way!
They Had Two Weddings
The couple is so in love that two wedding celebrations were enjoyed, rather than one! The second time, they did it in lavish style, while exchanging vows on a yacht in Capri, Italy. The second ceremony took place on August 3rd, 2019, and the newlyweds were surrounded by their family and friends. The seafront ceremony was beautiful, and we got to see some breathtaking photos, too. That’s 'amore'...
She’s Gaga Over Him
Don’t be too surprised if you see Klum always swooning over her husband - she’s absolutely nuts about him. Although some don’t know about the couple, Klum is very open about her affection towards him. Shockingly, prior to their love story, she wasn’t too familiar with him.
Kaulitz Went All Out For Her Halloween Party
No one does Halloween the way this A-lister does! And, yes, we wait for that time of year with high expectations. On Halloween 2018, the couple stole the show at her annual party when they showed up dressed as Shrek and his wife, Fiona. It was an epic entrance, to say the least, and this man will evidently go the extra mile for her.
They Don’t Mind Sharing Some PDA
If you didn’t already know, Heidi Klum and Tom Kaulitz’s PDA game is strong. If you follow Klum on the ‘gram, you may have noticed that she shares photos of the two canoodling and exchanging sweet kisses. They just can’t keep their hands off each other, and they don’t mind packing on the PDA in front of the paparazzi, either.
The Kids Love Kaulitz
We totally want this duo to have children together. We know that welcoming a parent’s new spouse into the fold isn’t always easy, but if you follow the lovebirds, you’ll quickly notice how they all mesh well. According to She Knows, Klum has stated that all is good and that Kaulitz is teaching his stepchildren how to play guitar.
They Were First Spotted On The AGT Set
We know Hollywood all too well – rumors circulate almost instantly - thankfully, this one was true. According to People, their crazy-in-love romance began in March 2018. Although we don’t have an accurate date as to when everything started, the news dropped when they were spotted kissing on the set of the America’s Got Talent. We guess he did drop by the set at least once, even if he doesn't go there anymore!
Kaulitz Asked Her Children For Their Permission
Can we cry now or later? Usually, a gentleman will ask a father for permission to marry his daughter, but Kaulitz switched things up. Asking and getting permission from her four children was his mission and it was obviously accomplished. According to Hello Magazine, The sweetest part of it all is that he even let them in on the proposal plans.
Their Engagement Was Short
In Hollywood, just about anything goes, but the two had quite the short engagement. According to Harper’s Bazaar, barely three months after their Christmas Eve engagement in 2018, the pair secretly tied the knot. How did they plan that all so quickly? We have no idea.
Klum Met Kaulitz’s Brother First
According to USA Today, Klum had a link to Kaulitz before she met him. As we mentioned previously, Kaulitz has a twin brother named Bill, and the former Victoria’s Secret model met Bill years ago when he was a guest on Germany’s Next Top Model. Back then, she didn’t know he had a twin brother. It’s a small world after all!
