Seal Realizes He Has No Money - Wants Some Of Heidi Klum's


I know various sites continue to report that Seal is worth $15M. No chance. At the peak of his fame, he probably was not pulling in $15M. He has not had a gold record in the US since 2003. He plays live, but not as much as he could and does not pull in the kind of crowds that would let him make anywhere close to $15M a year or even $2M a year from performing. You don't give permission to exploit your kids in an ad campaign if you have plenty of money. When Heidi filed for divorce she requested primary physical custody. No joint custody at all. Heidi also said the couple has no joint assets. Seal disagrees with that because he needs some joint assets so he can get some money. If the guy really had $15M he would not be worried about trying to find these joint assets. From what I know, Heidi paid for almost everything in the marriage and continues to pay for when the kids travel to see their dad which has only been once and that Seal did not pay for any of their staff or bodyguards. This divorce could get very messy very quickly but I think Heidi is just going to write him a check to get the guy out of her life. She knows what he did and wants him gone forever.

urg8urg said...

serial cheater.

there's that mention of body guards again.

liteNOTSObrite said...

Yes. what did he do?

KendraWM said...

Didn't she hint to the fact that he has a very volatile nasty anger issue.

I would cut him a check and say good riddance to bad rubbish!

I think the rumor is he cheated on her with ...was it Delta Goodrem? I can't even remember now. Such a shame-they seemed like such a lovely family.

He was the cheater and nasty temper. it kills me that these macho men dont need anything- except when it comes to money, then they dont mind riding the alimony pony. classless. only Heidi can choose whats good for her. creep.

wow, I wonder how bad his temper was. scary. Enty's right about Seal's lack of money--about the only money musicians make is from touring and from side projects such as perfume and clothing lines. Nearly all the money they get from albums goes to their record company and management and agents. Absolutely Heidi was the breadwinner all the way.

auntliddy said...

hey! Maybe he can make money by having a face off with Alec Baldwin, also famous for bad temper!! Pay per view!! put them in subway at rush hour and watch the fur fly!!! money maker for sure!

No I am never gonna survive... unless, I get some of Heidi's money... (sung to Seal's "Crazy").

The man hasn't had a major hit record since Whenever that Kiss From A Rose song came out. Without Heidi, he is one step closer to doing the has-been casino circuit with Foreigner.

I watch Project Runway with the fiancee all the time and Heidi comes across as pretty smart. She's German - trust me, with or without Seal, the lady's finances are in order.

No patience for verbally abusive husbands, if that is what this is about.

lolaluvs2snack said...

He should have thought of being broke before he cheated. lol

j-co said...

Not that he would be worth 15M, but he is a songwriter and that is worth huge money. Kiss From a Rose still gets played like crazy. His publishing and royalty checks are huge. Especially since he didn't share writing credit. Yes, most musicians make the bulk of their money these days from touring. Unless they are a songwriter and had hits, then it's game on. That's the root problem in most band break ups...sharing songwriting (ie money) credits when the band hits. But that a whole other Oprah...

MISCH said...

Pay him off and get rid of him once and for all..

FrenchGirl said...

he's overpopular in EUROPE
yes,you can be a popular singer and songwriter in other countries than USA!
and Enty,where is your revealed blind item about a drunk Heidi calling him a night when he's with another girlfriend after their break-up?

Don't forget, Seal had a horribly abusive father. It didn't seem like he had any chance for success, yet he did, even if he's not what he used to be. I bet Heidi fell in love with the REAL Seal and tried to help him and maybe he was good at first but he's given into his demons? Just my guesses.

timebob said...

serial cheater and violent temper. But I hate that bastards like this still get a check for the next 18 years becuase they made a sperm donation. They aren't invested or involved with their kids unless a check is attached to them.

Ice Angel said...

Hum...I always thought Seal must have been a really wonderful man for Heidi to fall for him....because it sure wasn't for his looks! I know that sounds harsh, but beauty is on the inside and I figured he must have been really beautiful on the inside, considering...you know...but I guess his insides aren't all that pretty either. Too bad. I thought they were a great couple and feel he is really talented.

Kiss From a Rose was one of my wedding songs (not ours-but for the wedding party to dance to after our first dance-our first dance was Lady from Celine Dion) OK...why am I telling all of you this??? LOL!

Pogue Mahone said...

I remember seeing a photo of her once it looked like she had a black eye and saw a video of her cringing and him ordering her to get into a car as he yelled and swore at photogs and heard he has a violent temper and always wondered if he abused her and if that's why she really divorced him....

smash said...

I was just waiting for him to put his hand out. I am team Heidi, even if the things about HER are true.

HalleGoLightly said...

@Ice Angel

One thing that caused Heidi to fall for him was his endowment. She's talked about this on multiple occasions, even on Oprah. When she met him he was wearing swim trunks or something. She saw his junk and she could see he was packing.

Different Guest said...

perhaps now we know why she needs bodyguards.

Momster said...

LOL at strongerthancoffee. . .

Agent**It said...

She will pay him so he won't write about her past history. IMHO.

Anonymous said...

Of course he has no money ! He also has no talent.

flwrgurl said...

something tells me this was also an arranged marriage. seal is gay and those kids are all from different dads

FalseProfit said...

You know there is a difference between annual income and net worth, right?

SashaJames2 said...

I was in the same flight three weeks ago with Seal, flying from Zurich to Nice. So figured he was on his way to st tropez as I haven't seen or heard he was in Monaco. Quite tall, didn't talk to him so have no impression of him. But was sad when I heard they broke up as they seemed to have a strong marriage.

Margaux said...

He's on the Australian instance of The Voice. A TV show = steady income. He won't be raking in JLo money but it wouldn't be too scabby.

lutefisk said...

I hope she does end up with primary physical custody. He doesn't seem to have any interest in those kids. What a shame. i thought they were great together.

Urban Rosebud said...

I can understand someone not seeing Seal as attractive, but there is something on the inside that shines through and makes him somewhat intriguing...he is exotic looking...truly does look like a Seal and those scars on his face give him some mystery. All kind of do-able. However, how sad that he has a problem controlling his temper.

I really wish them the best & hope they can get past this & co-parent because children really need both of their parents and for them to get along whether they stay together or not.

They live in NY no? I thought there was no joint custody in NY
