Heidi Klum has officially taken her husband Seal’s last name.
On Friday, a Los Angeles commissioner approved Klum’s legal name change to Heidi Samuel.
In her filing, the Project Runway host gave a one-word reason for the change: Marriage, according to People magazine.
Heidi and Seal, full name Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel, married May 10, 2005, on a beach in Mexico. Klum, 36, gave birth to their fourth child last month.
Catwalk model Heidi Klum might have given birth to her fourth child just five weeks ago, but over the weekend she proved to be the biggest crowd-pleaser as she strutted down the Victoria Secret runway in a purple corset covered with a half gown and tulle train at the lingerie fashion show in New York .
The 36-year-old German model was supposed to be hosting the show, but made a surprise runway appearance to the delight of the audience. Klum, who gave birth to daughter Lou Samuel with her singer husband Seal last month, kept her stomach covered after revealing she is still trying to get her figure back.
Musical guest The Black Eyed Peas — especially Fergie, its only female member, who wore a black, jeweled bodysuit — was another crowd-pleaser. Fergie came out later in a green corset gown.
“I could watch this online, but it’s a fun scene.This show is always fun and a great production,” said hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons from his front row seat.
“It’s always a spectacular, Victoria’s Secret does that extra thing I like,” said costume designer Patricia Field.
This comes after on Friday, Klum was finally granted permission by the Los Angeles court commissioner, to take her husband Seal’s last name Samuel, which she wanted to take on citing reasons as “marriege”.
