Tim Gunn Is Heidi Klum's 'Other Husband,' According to Seal

By PopEater Staff Posted Jan 19th 2011 02:45PM

How close are Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum? Really close, if you ask the supermodel's husband, Seal.

"When Seal is on the set he refers to me as Heidi's other husband," Gunn tells Parade.

"And the kids are all adorable. Heidi is a wife and a mother first, and her professional career really comes second, which is not to say that you'd ever notice that, but she really is a family person and cares about her family deeply and dearly. How touching is that? I'm the luckiest man in the world," the 'Project Runway' guru adds of Klum.

Which celebrity does Gunn admire, fashion-wise? "When it comes to people who aren't a kid or who aren't a size two, I think about Helen Mirren, someone whose style I adore and worship."

"[Mirren] knows who she is and she knows what she looks good in, and you can't help but be blown away by her red carpet appearances, as well as her regular day in and day out lifestyle. And I have to say, when she's not on a movie set, Sarah Jessica Parker's personal style is also wonderful," Gunn continues.

He's also a fan of Angelina Jolie and Cate Blanchett.

"Red carpet land is a very different place, and I don't think of it as being the real world. I'm more interested in how people navigate the real world. Angelina Jolie is another of those people and Cate Blanchett, people who seem to have an innate sense of style and it comes from knowing who they are," he explains.

"In fact, I asked Cate on a red carpet once, 'What do you attribute to the fact that you always seem to be so comfortable and confident in your skin and what you're wearing?' And she said, 'I only listen to my own voice. I'm surrounded by stylists, I respect them, I take in what they are saying to me, but in the end, I have to synthesize all of that and ask myself how I want to present myself.' I thought it doesn't get any better than that," Gunn says.

To my untrained eye, Helen Mirren is the best looking and best dressed woman on or off the red carpet. She always looks grest - never over-dressed. She's always beautiful

By New York

For a woman in her sixties I guess Helen Mirren is ok, but beautiful is a bit of a stretch.

Love Tim Gunn, he's the epitome of a gentleman. I wish he was my other husband.

Very few celebrities pick out their own clothes and accessories, Tim knows that, so when you talk about who looks great and has a good sense of style, you really need to know if they have a stylist and who that is....that is the person the credit goes to for the impeccable looks...

So Heidi, can Seal be my other husband?

By Ernest De Brew

I would like to have an "other wife" maybe if I get married someday. That sounds great so that I do not have to feel stuck to my wife if I get tired of her sometimes.
