Heidi Klum is ready to share the spotlight.
The supermodel, 52, covers the new issue of Elle Germany alongside her 20-year-old son Henry Samuel, striking a pose in their first joint magazine shoot.
Shot by legendary photographer Rankin, the mother-son duo dished on career paths, family wisdom and the evolving modeling industry in the accompanying interview.
“Who is this handsome man next to me?” Klum gushed on Instagram. “May I introduce to you my smart, funny, kind, loving son @henryguenthersamuel I’m so proud of you! I love you, Mom ❤️❤️❤️”
Henry is the second-oldest of Klum’s four children. She also shares daughters Leni, 21, and Lou, 16, and son Johan, 19, with ex-husband Seal.
On the new cover, Klum clutches a fringed mini bag by Aigner — fitting, given that she’s the German heritage brand’s newest face. She wraps her arm fondly around her son’s shoulders, modeling a feathered dress by Akris and a Bucherer diamond bangle.
Henry, for his part, adjusts the bow tie on his Brunello Cucinelli suit while sporting a coordinating bangle by Tiffany & Co.
The Elle Germany cover is Samuel’s latest fashion milestone after a whirlwind year. In January, he made his runway debut at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, opening the Lena Erziak show in a dramatic backless black suit.
Just two months later, he landed his first solo magazine cover with Hunger, also photographed by Rankin. He’s since signed with NEXT Management to further his fashion and entertainment career.
Reflecting on the industry’s evolution over her three-decade career, Klum noted that modeling has become more inclusive.
“Even women in their prime, like myself, can still be on the covers of magazines like Elle,” the “Germany’s Next Topmodel” told the outlet in her native language. “That wasn’t really possible before. The same goes for curvy or plus-size models. In that respect, a lot has really changed for the better.”
As for the best piece of modeling advice she’s passed down to her son?
“To pay attention to my posture,” Samuel shared. “I like video games and used to constantly sit hunched over the computer. But my mother also instilled a lot in me regarding self-confidence.”
