'I'm a much happier person': Heidi Klum, 46, says her marriage to Tom Kaulitz, 30, is the 'first time she's experienced what it's like to have a partner'
Heidi Klum has declared she's 'much happier' now she's married to Tom Kaulitz.
The supermodel, 46, tied the knot with the Tokio Hotel rocker, 30, on the Italian island of Capri in August 2019 after 15 months of dating.
Despite being married twice before - to musician Seal for nine years and to hairstylist Ric Pipino for five years - the German catwalk queen claimed her latest union marks the 'first time she's experienced what it's like to have a partner'.

Happy in love: In an interview with People, Heidi said: 'For the first time I have a partner I can discuss everything with someone who shares duties that we all have in our life'
Speaking in an interview with People, she said: 'I'm just a much happier person. For the first time, I have a partner who I can discuss everything with.
'Someone who shares duties that we all have in our life. I used to be on my own with everything.'
The couple first went public with their romance at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2018 and the German musician proposed seven months later in December 2018.

The supermodel was married to Seal, 56, for nearly seven years.
They first met in 2004 in a lobby of a New York hotel and the pair were married later that year after he romantically popped the question on a Christmas skiing trip.
When they met, Heidi was pregnant with her daughter Leni - her child with racing car owner Flavio Briatore - who Seal went on to adopt in 2009.
The couple share three biological children bringing their total to four: daughters Leni, 15, and Lou, ten, and sons Henry, 15, Johan, 13.
The whole family would continue to celebrate the couples' marriage and the pair renewed their vows a total of six times over the ensuing years.

Seal told People after their fifth exchange: 'Each year, Heidi and I get remarried. It’s a great party, but for about an hour, we go off on our own down to a private beach. We sit there with the kids and read vows'.
However it was not meant to be for the superstar couple and their marriage sadly ended in January 2012. They called it quits after months of speculation with Seal cryptically tweeting: 'The end.'
The model was previously married to celebrity hairstylist Ric Pipino, 50, from 1997 to 2002.

The America's Got Talent judge remained fairly private through her first marriage after the Australian hairdresser proposed on top of the empire state building.
It was after this marriage ended that she briefly dated her eldest child's father Flavio Briatore, 69. Though never making it down the aisle, the pair were linked from March 2003 until shortly after announcing they were expecting that December.
Despite Heidi finally finding happiness in her new marriage to Tom it seems her ex, Seal, is in no rush to share well wishes with the couple.

Before their wedding last summer, The Kiss From A Rose singer was asked at LAX airport in Los Angeles if he had well-wishes for the newlyweds.
'That's news to me!' the British-born singer said with a smile as he passed through the travel terminal, when asked about Heidi remarrying.
The Killer singer sought to steer the topic away from Heidi and said: 'Let's talk about something more interesting,' adding he preferred to chat about sports or photography instead.
He added: 'I don't know, I don't really have any comment to pass on that.
'I just don't have a lot of interest in that subject in general: What am I gonna say, what do you actually want me to say? he asked. 'I'm as confused as you are.'
The Bring It On vocalist said he was 'focused on more important things' as he made his way through the airport with an unidentified woman.
Happy: But for Heidi this marriage is her best one yet after she has finally found happiness in a partner that 'shares duties that we all have in our life'
