Heidi Klum and Seal’s oldest son Henry Samuel is now set in following his parents into the spotlight, turning heads earlier this year with his catwalk debut.
The teen made his runway debut at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week in January, walking for Lena Erziak’s Haute Couture Spring/Summer show.
However, in the midst of also exploring life away from home as a college student, Henry is continuing to make strides in the modeling world with his first magazine cover.

Henry stars on the cover for Hunger Magazine, one which his supermodel mom has graced several times, wearing a satin black Karl Lagerfeld suit unbuttoned to reveal his ripped physique.Â
He was photographed by Rankin, an English photographer who has worked often with both the publication and Heidi, having also made appearances on Germany’s Next Topmodel, which she hosts.
His cover is part of the magazine’s “Fight Back” issue, and a sneak peek of his cover story from the magazine reads: “Stepping into the spotlight in a big way, Henry made his runway debut opening for Lena Erziak at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week. Now here’s his first-ever magazine cover, captured by Rankin wearing Karl Lagerfeld for Hunger.”
Heidi herself proudly shared the cover on her own social media and penned some sweet words for her oldest son, writing: “So proud of you, my beautiful Henry! Your first cover for @hungermagazine — what an incredible milestone!”Â
“Watching you grow into the amazing young man you are today fills my heart with so much joy. The world is just beginning to see what I’ve always known—you are destined for greatness! I love you.”
