Heidi Klum Gifts Son Henry a Ferrari After Mario Kart Bet

Henry Samuel, the second child of Klum and her ex-husband Seal, stepped outside alongside his step-father, musician Tom Kaulitz of Tokio Hotel, before discovering the sports car adorned with a large golden bow.

Oh my God! Damn! I don’t even know what to say, Henry Samuel said upon seeing the car, as reported by Voici. According to TMZ and Voici, the six-figure birthday gift originated from a high-stakes gaming bet made approximately seven years prior. While playing Mario Kart as a teenager, Henry challenged Kaulitz with specific terms: if Henry won the match, his step-father would purchase him a Ferrari when he reached the milestone age of 21. If Henry lost, he agreed to abstain from video games for three months and paint a picture of the luxury vehicle. Henry won the match, and Kaulitz honored the agreement. In throwback footage shared by Klum, she noted that Kaulitz ultimately made good on his word after years of anticipation.

Family Background and Modeling Careers

The birthday celebration highlights the close-knit dynamic within Klum’s blended family. Klum married Kaulitz in 2019, and the musician has since integrated closely with her four children with Seal: Leni, Henry, Johan, and Lou. Speaking to People in July 2025, Klum shared that she actively cultivates an open home environment where her children and their friends frequently gather. I love having a house in which they feel safe, Klum told People, describing moments such as her sons hosting backyard barbecues. Henry Samuel has also begun forging his own path in the entertainment industry. For his 21st birthday, however, the focus shifted from the fashion runways to a childhood video game victory and a promised luxury sports car.
