Family Relationships
Leni's parents, Heidi Klum and Flavio Briatore, began dating in March 2003. Flavio Briatore is an Italian businessman, entrepreneur, and former manager in Formula One racing, known for his significant contributions to the sport and his successful ventures in various industries. Briatore's rise to fame began in the 1980s when he joined the Benetton Group, an Italian clothing company. His success in developing the company's American operations led him to a prominent position within the company. This opportunity paved the way for his entry into Formula One racing when Benetton acquired the Toleman team in 1986. As the managing director of Benetton Formula, Briatore played a crucial role in transforming the team into a top competitor, leading it to win two Constructors' Championships and helping Michael Schumacher secure his first two World Drivers' Championships in 1994 and 1995. Aside from his Formula One success, Briatore has been involved in various business ventures. He has interests in fashion (with the Billionaire brand), restaurants, and real estate, which have significantly contributed to his wealth. Flavio Briatore has a net worth of $400 million.
In December of 2003 Heidi announced she was pregnant with Flavio's child. At some point around this time, they broke up. Heidi began dating musician Seal in February 2004, when she was roughly five months pregnant with Leni.
Leni Olumi Klum was born on May 4, 2004 in New York City. Seal, not Flavio, was in the hospital room when Leni was born.
Leni has not had a relationship with Flavio during her lifetime. In December 2009 Leni was legally adopted by Seal. Simultaneously, with Flavio's blessing, she was allowed to legally change her last name from Briatore to Samuel (Seal's last name).
Through her mother's marriage to Seal, Leni has three half-siblings. Through her father's marriage to Elisabetta Gregoraci, she has a half brother.
Heidi and Seal got married in May 2005. They went on to have three children together, two sons and a daughter. Seal and Heidi divorced in October 2014 after splitting up in 2012. Upon their divorce, both Heidi and Leni began going by the last name Klum but Leni has remained very close with Seal.
