Leni Klum likes body art, although she does not necessarily flaunt this. But the one tattoo she got inked means a lot, as it honors an important relationship in her life: the bond with stepdad Tom Kaulitz, guitarist for Tokio Hotel.
Heidi Klum and Tom Kaulitz started dating in 2018 and married in 2019. Kaulitz sought to be an active part of Heidi's life and her children's, and he even included Leni and her siblings in his proposal. "He asked all of us children for permission. We brought them breakfast in bed at Christmas, he took the ring, and then we all got really nervous when Mama hesitated for a moment," Leni told Vogue Germany (via Vogue Singapore). So, in addition to Seal adopting Leni, she also has another strong male figure in her life. But now, back to their tattoos. It's a friendship piece created with three small dots on the inside of their fingers, and they also included Tom's brother, Bill Kaulitz, when deciding on their new ink. While the exact meaning behind their design is not immediately clear, it could be that there's a dot to represent each of them.
In the same interview, Leni revealed she wanted a mouth tattoo, a decision her mother vetoed at the time. It's possible that she's since gotten it inked, as she's an adult and no longer needs her mother's approval.
