Happy birthday, Leni!

For Leni's birthday last year, Klum shared a picture of the two models looking up to the camera and make playful kissy faces. 

"Happy 19th Birthday," Heidi captioned the post, tagging her daughter and adding a bunch of heart emojis. 

What to know about Heidi Klum's oldest daughter, Leni Klum

Leni took after her mother when she decided to step into the modeling world herself. 

"I've always gone to work with my mom and thought, 'This looks so fun. She looks so happy while she's working,' jump in sometimes, and I'd play around with the makeup that her makeup Artist would bring," Leni told People

It didn't take long for Leni to find success in the industry. At the age of 16, she was photographed with Klum for the cover of Vogue Germany. In an interview with People, Leni opened up about how the experience was a dream come true for her. 

"I've always gone to work with my mom and thought, 'This looks so fun. She looks so happy while she's working,' jump in sometimes, and I'd play around with the makeup that her makeup Artist would bring," she told the outlet. "That's, like, insane that I did that as my first job and my mom was with me, which made it so much fun. It was just such a good day. I wasn't nervous at all. I was just so excited."

"New York is kind of our home away from home. We’ve always been in New York filming and shooting and my daughter knows New York very well, so it’s not like going to a new place she’s never been before. So, I think she’ll do OK with the city," she said.
