Seal Retracts Heidi Slam

Just when it looked there could be a battle royale, TMZ reports that Seal and Heidi Klum are very close to settling their divorce.

Over the weekend, Seal slammed his about to be ex supermodel for “fornicating” with her bodyguard, Martin Kristen, whom he condescendingly referred to as “the help,” indicating that he thought this showed a lack of class. Soon, however, the 49-year old singer and songwriter thought better of such remarks. Through his rep, he clarified that he did not mean that Heidi cheated on him while they were married.

Seal is now taking the position that the couples’ postnuptial agreement will be “substantially honored.” The couple have been married for 7 years and have 4 children, ranging in age from eight years old to two. Their oldest child is from Klum’s prior relationship with Flavia Briatore, but Seal legally adopted the child who has his last name, which is Samuel.

Isn’t it nice when things can be settled without rancor? Especially when there are children involved.
