Heidi Klum Issues a Direct Response to Critics of Lingerie Photoshoots With Daughter Leni
Weeks after facing backlash for starring in a lingerie ad alongside her 20-year-old daughter Leni, Heidi Klum shared another intimate mother-daughter photoshoot on Instagram—and she seems to have issued a direct message to critics, as well.
The 51-year-old supermodel took to Instagram on Wednesday, Dec. 3, to post a video promoting the Italian clothing brand Intimissimi.
In the beginning of the clip, Heidi wore a red silk pajama set, with Leni dressed in a matching top and shorts. As the pair snapped pictures of each other with an antique camera, they modeled different looks, with Leni posing in a black lace push-up bra and Heidi changing into a red padded bra. The video ended with the pair in their original red satin ensembles hugging on a couch.

Social media users slammed the video, according to the Daily Mail, with one commenter asking, "Which normal mom would pose together with her daughter in lingerie?"
Heidi has since turned off the comments on the video. (It's worth noting that the comments are disabled on many of the America’s Got Talent judge's Instagram posts.)
The mother-daughter duo were similarly criticized in October when Leni shared slides on Instagram from another Intimissimi lingerie photoshoot.
"Quite strange to do this with your mum," wrote one commenter.
"This genuinely feels wrong … stop shooting lingerie with your mom!!!" someone else chimed in.
