Heidi Klum Speaks Up About Relationship With Bodyguard
While not directly stating that Martin is her boyfriend, Klum, 39, did speak about Kirsten on Wednesday’s episode of Katie Couric’s new talk show "Katie." Klum said that "[Martin]’s a great man and recently we just got to know each other from a
completely different side.”
Previously, People magazine had announced speculation that Klum and Kirsten, her bodyguard of four years, were now dating after photos of the two were taken on a vacation in Sardinia, Italy. The two had been spotted playing on the beach with Klum’s four children, Leni, 8; Henry, 6½; Johan, 5½; and Lou, 2½.
Klum filed for divorce from her husband, singer Seal, in April, after a seven-year long marriage. According to People, sources close to Seal, 49, say that the singer feels betrayed by Martin. Seal was recently quoted in a TMZ airport interview saying,“…Whilst I didn't expect anything better from him [the bodyguard], I would of thought that Heidi would have shown a little more class and at least waited until we separated first before deciding to fornicate with the help, as it were."
Later, his rep clarified that Seal did not mean to imply that Heidi had cheated on him before their separation in January.
