Heidi Klum’s son Henry Samuel lands new management deal
Heidi Klum’s son Henry Samuel has signed with Next Management.
Heidi Klum’s son Henry Samuel has signed with Next Management to advance his fashion career.
The 19-year-old model – whose father is Heidi’s ex husband Seal – is following in his mother’s footsteps, having already appeared on the runway and magazine covers.
He told WWD in a statement: “I’ve grown up around fashion and entertainment, but stepping into the world myself is a whole new experience. “I’m grateful to Next Management for this opportunity and excited to learn, grow, and find my own voice in the industry.”
Josh Otten, the company’s US director of talent, praised Henry as a “fresh” and “unique” model.
He added: “Henry brings a unique presence and creative energy that feels fresh and entirely his own.
“He’s entering the industry to forge his own path, and at Next, we’re committed to supporting this through a 360-degree strategy that spans fashion, entertainment, and cultural relevance.”
Earlier this year, Henry opened up on the advice he receives from his fashion icon mother.
He told Extra: “She always tells me to fix my posture, and sometimes I’m hunching over a bit.”
Heidi – who has Leni, 21, with ex-husband Ric Pipino, as well as Henry, Johan, 18, and Lou, 15, with Seal – added: “Being on the computer and just gaming a lot or being on your phone … I’m always like, ‘You guys have to stand up straight.’
“Even though you are tall, it doesn’t matter, make yourself taller, but you have to find your centre and be proud and tall.”
Meanwhile, in 2024, Heidi explained that she actually started to feel more comfortable and more relaxed after turning 50.
The model discussed her new-found love of clubbing, explaining that her children were no longer as reliant on her as they once were.
The blonde beauty told HELLO! magazine: “Now they’re older, the days of me going to bed at 9.30am are over.
“So I feel like with them all being older now – maybe it also has to do with my younger husband, I don’t know – it’s just fun.
“It’s fun to go to a club. I enjoy music most of the time.
“I’m going to the club and I look around and I’m like: ‘Am I the oldest person here? I think I am.'”
