Heidi Klum has revealed that her husband Tom Kaulitz encouraged her to gain weight.
The 53-year-old model has revealed that she has little interest in weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic and was grateful that her spouse pointed out that she looks better with a fuller figure.
Asked if she would be interested in taking weight-loss drugs, Heidi told Us Weekly: "I'm not interested at all. I've gained weight over the years. I'm no longer a size 24 jean. But I think with age, we look better than when we're not as skinny.
"My husband was the first one who pointed that out. He said, 'You should eat more; you would look better if you had more meat on your bones.'
"I was like, 'What?' This is not something you're told in the industry, ever, because you're always supposed to be skinnier than you are. When I look back at photos, I'm like, 'He's right!' Proportion-wise, I look better bigger."
Heidi has been married to Tokio Hotel musician Kaulitz, 36, since 2019 and admits that the pair's busy schedules can be challenging at times.
The Project Runway host said: "It’s hard when you have a husband who goes on tour a lot, and I have a show where I film in New York for five weeks.
"When we met, it was [the COVID-19 pandemic], so we were in LA in our house with the kids and in the garden, cooking and being together every day. We were freshly in love and grew so tight, so when the world opened up again, it was hard to be like, 'OK, bye, see you in three weeks.'"
However, Heidi explained that she will be accompanying Tom when Tokio Hotel head out on tour later this year.
Asked how she handles the distance, the blonde beauty said: "You make the best of it. He’s going to be on tour all of November, and I’m going with him. I’ll be the fangirl in the front, pulling up my T-shirt and throwing my bra. I was just in Barcelona with Elle MacPherson, and she’s touring with her boyfriend, who’s the guitar player for Eric Clapton. It’s beautiful to see your spouse doing what they love. Tom will come and be on [my] set too."
