Happy birthday, Heidi Klum! The German supermodel and TV personality celebrates her 52nd birthday on Sunday, June 1.
In honor of her big day, while tributes from friends and fans are pouring in, one of her loved ones has some special words to share.
Just days after making his red carpet debut beside his famous mom, 19-year-old Henry Samuel took to social media to share a collection of photos with and of Heidi for her birthday.
Henry is a budding model himself, making his catwalk debut in January at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, walking for Lena Erziak’s Haute Couture Spring/Summer show.
He has since followed that up with his first magazine cover for Hunger Magazine, and his red carpet debut at the American Music Awards.
Henry shared some snaps of himself and his mom in recent months, from backstage at the AMAs to behind-the-scenes of his magazine shoot, to childhood throwbacks featuring a radiant and make-up free Heidi doting on her oldest son.

Heidi shares her son with ex-husband Seal. The former couple also welcomed younger son Johan and daughter Lou while together, and Seal is the adoptive father of Heidi’s daughter Leni Klum, who she welcomed with ex Flavio Briatore. The Project Runway host is now married to musician Tom Kaulitz.
Henry’s appearance at the AMAs with his mom turned out to be a surprise, at least that’s what Heidi told E! News on the carpet, as her son was a replacement date for the Tokio Hotel guitarist.

And just like that, it looks like Henry’s interested in making his own foray into the world of music. “I’m looking at doing music. I’m working on music production, so it’s possible,” he teased to E!.
The former America’s Got Talent judge previously also told Access Hollywood that her son had expressed an interest in following her into the modeling profession as well, and even sought her advice, which turned out to be a surprise for her.

“I’m like, ‘Wow! Who knew that you wanted to do this? I thought you were always more into music and different types of things,’ and all of a sudden he was like, ‘Yeah, I want to give this a shot. Do you think I can do this?'”
