HEIDI KLUM - SEAL: 'BRIATORE'S BABY BROUGHT HEIDI AND I CLOSER TOGETHER'

HEIDI KLUM'S pregnancy with another man's baby had an unlikely effect on her relationship with SEAL - it brought them closer together. The supermodel was already pregnant with Italian racing mogul Flavio Briatore's child when the pair met in 2004 - but Seal insists the biological father of Klum's baby was of no consequence. And when the pregnancy started to show, the Kiss From A Rose star was even more intent on becoming a part of the baby's life. He says, "We couldn't do the casual dating thing any more because in four months there was going to be a baby. "I hadn't seen her for a bit because we were both working and the next time I saw her, she had a bump. I was like 'Wow! You really are pregnant.' "That was the moment I really fell in love - and I fell in love with both Heidi and the baby. Up until that point, the baby hadn't been a reality but seeing Heidi like that brought everything into focus. It wasn't a big step to make; it was more a case of, 'My number's being called and I'd better be worthy of this.'" Klum and Briatore's daughter, Helene, was born on 4 May, 2004. Seal and the German beauty married in May 2005 and have two sons, Henry and Johan, together.
