Heidi Klum was spotted enjoying a beach day on Sunday, January 4, in Saint Barthélemy, better known as St. Barts.

The couple has been celebrating the holidays on the tropical island for several weeks. In a playful nod to their romance, Klum was previously seen draping a towel emblazoned with Kaulitz’s face, a cheeky display of affection that fans adored.

Kaulitz has embraced his role as a stepfather alongside Klum, who has four children.

Not content with just sunbathing, Klum recently shared a new Instagram workout video, showcasing her toned physique in the same striking yellow bikini. The video captures Klum powering through bicep curls using a resistance band.

She accessorized with a long gold chain necklace, reflective aviator sunglasses, and kept her blonde-highlighted hair down in natural, beachy waves. Minimal makeup highlighted her natural beauty.

Fans quickly flooded the comments section with praise, calling her a “Goddess" and admiring her dedication and radiant appearance. Klum’s beachside routine wasn’t all about exercise. She also shared photos of herself relaxing with her husband and a friend, wearing the same butter yellow bikini paired with a white sarong, enjoying the sunny escape.

Klum’s daring beach adventures continued on Monday, January 5, when she posed topless in the ocean, wearing nothing but metallic navy blue bikini bottoms. The mom-of-four appeared carefree, accessorizing with a long necklace and aviator sunglasses as she leaped through the waves alongside Kaulitz, who sported cheetah-print shorts and a grey baseball cap.

Before shedding her top, Klum was photographed in a neon yellow halter and white sunhat, carrying her beach essentials in a black tote bag. She later shared Instagram clips of herself strolling in her bikini and sarong and even indulging in potato chips while lounging on a towel.

This marks the third topless outing in recent weeks for the German supermodel, who has previously shared her unapologetic approach to showing off her figure. Speaking to People in 2023, Klum explained her philosophy.

The couple took dips in the ocean and appeared affectionate throughout their beach outing.

“I'm super comfortable naked today. To the point where my kids are like, 'Mom, I have a friend coming over.' As soon as someone is coming, I put my top on. But if no one is there, suns out buns out.” She added a practical reason for her bold choices. "I just don’t like tan lines because I wear so many different outfits. I don’t want to have straps anywhere from tan lines. It’s very strategic."

Beyond bikinis and beach workouts, Klum has spoken candidly about aging, beauty, and self-confidence. She supports Botox but has not publicly admitted to cosmetic surgery, and she challenges age-related stereotypes.

Heidi Klum and her husband Tom Kaulitz spent the afternoon at Gouverneur Beach, sharing kisses, holding hands, and relaxing on the sand.

“The biggest misconception [about] being in your 50s is that you are off the shelf. You're not off the shelf. We are very much on that shelf for everyone to see. Don't hide in your 50s.” Her St. Barts holiday perfectly captures this mantra.

Heidi's love story with Tom Kaulitz:

Klum and Kaulitz’s romance first caught public attention in March 2018 when they shared a passionate kiss while leaving a Lorraine Schwartz launch party.

Their connection quickly intensified, and by December 2018, Kaulitz proposed. The couple wed in a private ceremony seven months later, before hosting a grand celebration in Capri, Italy, in August 2019.

Kaulitz has embraced his role as a stepfather alongside Klum, who has four children: daughter Leni, 21, with former boyfriend Flavio Briatore, and sons Henry, 20, Johan, 19, and Lou, 16, with ex-husband Seal.
