Seal To Remain Civil And Keep Dignity During Heidi Klum Separation

Posted byBy Popular Critic | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

As Heidi Klum and Seal move forward with their separation more details continue to emerge around the shocking news. While Heidi has only said her piece through a joint statement, Seal who’s doing his promotional rounds for his new album, dished on the separation. His first round began with PBS’ Tavis Smiley,

“We have a tremendous amount of love and respect for each other and of course our children are our first priority and I think we pretty much said everything that we needed to say in the statement,” Seal stated when asked how he will move forward with his career.

Unlike other celebrity divorces that quickly went from amicable to nasty, Seal claims he an Heidi are above that.

“What one has to do in this situation is to remain civil, and to retain one’s dignity, to be professional, and to understand that we are not the only people on this planet that are going through this.It is just unfortunate a chapter of life.”

For his second round with Ellen DeGeneres, Seal revealed that both he and Heidi are still rocked by the separation.

“I think we were shocked. You go into these things with the greatest intentions when you say ‘I do’ and you say ”Till death do us part.’

Watch Seal’s interview with Tavis Smiley below. Does it appear that Seal is riding the coattails of his divorce to promote his new album?

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
