Comments were disabled on Heidi Klum’s latest Instagram post, which showcased a ling*erie photo shoot featuring her and her daughter, Leni Klum. In the shared clip, the 51-year-old supermodel donned a striking red silk pajama set, while 20-year-old Leni matched her in a similar ensemble of a top and shorts.
The promotional video for the Italian brand Intimissimi began with the mother-daughter pair unboxing a vintage camera. After Heidi snapped a picture of Leni, the young model switched to a black lace push-up bra, posing seductively for the camera.
Leni then took the camera from her mother, capturing a shot of the “America’s Got Talent” judge, who playfully blew a ki*ss and appeared in a red padded br*a. In her caption, Heidi wrote, “New @intimissimiofficial with me and my daughter @leniklum just in time for the holiday season.”
According to the Daily Mail, the photo shoot stirred criticism among fans. One commenter reportedly questioned, “Which normal mom would pose together with her daughter in ling*erie?” before the comments were removed.
This wasn’t the first time the pair faced backlash for their ling*erie poses; they were previously criticized in October while promoting Intimissimi’s Fall-Winter collection, where they showcased various underwear sets, smiling and enjoying each other’s company as they photographed one another.
Despite turning off comments on her own post featuring the racy shoot, Heidi’s followers expressed their discomfort on Intimissimi’s page, with one user stating, “Am I the only one thinking this is a bit weird? …This campaign doesn’t work for me. Like, who dresses up in ling*erie with their mom and prances around taking pics?”
Another comment read, “Cree*py af,” while a third person remarked, “Heidi looks amazing. But why would you pose in lace revealing ling*erie with your mother? Gives me a yucky feeling.”
However, several fans came to Heidi and Leni’s defense, asserting that “ling*erie for every age” is perfectly acceptable. One supporter stated, “Two beautiful ladies! I can’t imagine why anyone would be critical of this. People have been modeling underwear forever.” Another added, “There is nothing wrong with them taking these pictures together.
People need to lighten up! Life’s too short; there’s NOTHING RACY ABOUT THIS!!!!!!!” Over the years, the mother of four and Leni have collaborated with Intimissimi multiple times, including campaigns in October and November of the previous year.
