Seal acknowledged Flavio’s respectful handling of the situation, expressing his admiration. “I have a tremendous amount of respect for him…I certainly have nothing but good things to say about the way he’s been with us,” Seal said.
As Seal and Heidi’s relationship blossomed, it led to a beautiful beach wedding in Mexico in 2005. The couple said “I do” near Seal’s home on Costa Careyes.
Shortly after their wedding, they welcomed their first child together. Henry Günther Ademola Dashtu Samuel was born in a Los Angeles-area hospital. The baby boy inherited the name Günther as a tribute to Heidi’s maternal grandfather.
In 2006, Seal and Heidi’s family grew with the birth of their second son, Johan Riley Fyodor Taiwo Samuel. A statement on Heidi’s website proudly announced, “He is healthy, beautiful, and looks just like his mother.”
Seal’s family was completed in 2009 with the arrival of their daughter, Lou Sulola Samuel. Heidi gave birth to Lou on October 9 in Los Angeles. Seal later expressed his overwhelming love and amazement at their expanding family.
“It’s difficult to imagine loving another child as much as you love your existing children. Anyone who has a family will tell you this. Where will one find that extra love? ” Seal shared in a statement.
“On Friday, Oct. 9, 2009, at 7:46 p.m., the answer to this question came in the form of our fourth child and second daughter. Lou Sulola Samuel was born, and from the moment she looked into both of our eyes, it was endless love at first sight,” the statement
continued.
However, Seal admitted to initially being nervous about their fourth child. “I found myself thinking before Lou was born, ‘We’ve got three kids, how on earth am I going to find any more love to give another kid?’” the singer shared. However, any doubts quickly vanished. Seal revealed, “In the grand scheme of things, it is the perfect life.”
