Heidi Klum Says She Embraces Weight Gain and Rejects GLP‑1 Drugs

Her Us Weekly interview frames a shift from modeling‑era thinness to a family‑centered, food‑and‑lifestyle approach to health that questions pharmaceutical weight loss.

Overview

  • In a cover interview first reported July 11, Heidi Klum said she has gained weight over time and now consciously accepts the change after encouragement from her husband Tom Kaulitz.
  • Klum told Us Weekly that Kaulitz urged her to eat more, saying she would “look better with more meat on her ribs,” and she now views that fuller look as more proportionate for her.
  • She firmly rejected GLP‑1 weight‑loss drugs such as Ozempic, saying she has no interest in those medications and prefers natural diet and lifestyle measures.
  • Klum outlined practical habits she uses to feel fit at 53, including cooking healthier meals, avoiding a raw‑only diet, lightly cooking fruit, chewing thoroughly, and limiting fluids during meals.
  • Follow‑up reporting on July 11–12 added context about Tom Kaulitz’s modest childhood in Leipzig and described how the couple’s family life and scheduling pressures shape their relationship and wellbeing.
