Leni Samuel | Heidi Klum & Flavio Briatore’s Daughter

Born on the 4th of May 2004, Helene Boshoven Samuel, or most commonly referred to as Leni Samuel, is the daughter of Italian Businessman and Formula One team owner Flavio Briatore and German-American model, television host, producer and businesswoman, Heidi Klum. Klum’s ex-husband, Seal, later adopted her in 2009 and legally changed her name into Helene Boshoven Samuel. She has three siblings from her mother’s marriage with Seal: Henry Gunther Ademola Dashtu Samuel, Johan Riley Fyodor Taiwo Samuel, and Lou Sulola Samuel.

At 16 years old, Leni made her modeling debut on the cover of Vogue Germany’s January/February issue alongside her mom, earning her a spot next to other top model’s children who’re conquering the catwalk. The young model has already racked up over 500,000 Instagram followers and is one of the most anticipated rising talents in the fashion and modeling world. It seems like her mom’s investments in her are paying off remarkably.
