Model and TV personality Heidi Klum celebrated stepping further into middle age by throwing caution to the wind and going topless.
She celebrated her 51st birthday on Saturday with a daring video that left little to the imagination. Amid the flood of birthday wishes in her Instagram Stories, Klum shared a brief selfie video by the pool, wearing minimal clothing.
The tantalizing glimpse for fans followed her sharing heartwarming photos of a birthday brunch celebrated with her children and husband, Tom Kaulitz. In the video, the aging model artfully placed one hand across her chest. She used the other hand to film with her phone.
In the background, pink balloon bouquets adorned the area around the pool at her palatial mansion. Her face, shielded from the bright afternoon rays by a billed cap and sunglasses, stood out among the few protected parts of her body. Completing her sleek look, her long, blonde hair was pulled back into a ponytail.
Despite Being Topless, Heidi Klum Wasn’t in Her Birthday Suit
However, it seems Klum wasn’t entirely nude by the pool. She posted a photo of herself and her boy toy husband, Tom Kaulitz, 34, relaxing on lounge chairs with their feet touching. The model was wearing a multi-toned string bikini bottom.
Klum donned a watermelon pink sweater adorned with seafoam green stars for a family dinner. The gathering included her daughter Leni’s boyfriend, Aris Rachevsky, and her husband’s twin brother, Bill Kaulitz.
The table was elegantly decorated with a long centerpiece of pink and lavender roses. ‘All I could wish for,’ Klum wrote alongside the candid snapshot.
Klum also shared a more intimate black-and-white photo. It captured a tender moment where she lies in bed, kissing her still-sleeping husband, Kaulitz. ‘Woke up to this beautiful present❤️,’ Klum claimed. ‘I feel lucky and blessed.’
Of course, Heidi Klum going topless is a tale as old as time. Back in February, Klum’s teen daughter Leni revealed she feared the veteran model wouldn’t bother to cover up when her friends were over.
“I’d be so embarrassed and like scared because usually in my friend’s families I never see their moms tanning naked at the pool, but I thought it was normal. And my friends would always be like, ‘Hmm,’ like standoffish, but it was just so normal in our family,” she explained on an episode of Call Her Daddy
