Who is Heidi Klum’s younger rock star husband, Tom Kaulitz? The Tokio Hotel guitarist is German like his Sports Illustrated model wife, and beat Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus as MTV’s best new artist
Not your typical supermodel? As usual, Heidi Klum skipped the sexy Halloween costume this year for something … very unconventional.
Tom Kaulitz is German, like Heidi Klum
Klum and Kaulitz married in 2019 and are both of German descent. “He’s the kindest, sweetest, most caring, loving person,” the 49-year-old former Victoria’s Secret model was quoted telling Us Weekly in 2018.
“He is absolutely wonderful. He’s German, and we maybe understand each other in a different way,” she added about her 33-year-old partner.
He’s part of a German rock band together with his identical twin brother, Bill
Tom is one of the founding members of German rock band Tokio Hotel together with his identical twin brother Bill, their lead vocalist, and two other bandmates. Tom is very slightly older than his twin, reportedly born 10 minutes ahead.

He’s 16 years younger than Klum
Klum was born in 1973 and Kaulitz in 1989, meaning they have a 16-year age gap. But the two have never seemed to mind it. Klum has addressed the fact that Kaulitz is many years younger than she is, saying that she’s been questioned and asked about it a lot in a July 2018 interview with InStyle. “That’s really the only time when age seems to be shoved in my face and I have to give an answer for it,” the former Project Runway host said.
He’s a sweet guy!
“They went to Mexico before their engagement, around Thanksgiving, and that’s when he started talking to the kids about his plans in secret and it was so hard for them to not tell anyone,” a source told People. “They were so excited and happy for their mum.”
They secretly tied the knot in February, two months later.
He’s gamely joined dressing in costumes together with Klum for Halloween
In 2018, Kaulitz spent Halloween dressed as Shrek to match with his wife, who was dressed as Princess Fiona. The following year, while Klum went all-out as a freaky humanoid, Kaulitz stood by her side as an astronaut who seemed to have had a bloody experience in space.
