Heidi Klum had a last-minute date swap for the 2025 American Music Awards.
The supermodel revealed that she opted to attend the ceremony in Las Vegas with her son Henry Samuel, whom she shares with her ex Seal, after her husband Tom Kaulitz dropped out of attending the event.
“I was supposed to come with my husband, but he was tired because we just came from Cannes,” Klum, 51, exclusively told E! News on the AMAs red carpet on Monday. “We were over in Europe for the last two weeks and I was like, ‘I have someone who’s gonna jump in in a hot second.’ So my son came, and I love having my son here today.”
And the 19-year-old was happy to tag along with his mom — who also shares kids Johan Samuel, 18, and Lou Samuel, 15, with Seal, as well as daughter Leni Klum, 21, with ex Flavio Briatore — noting that he’s already considering his own foray into the entertainment industry.
