It’s so frustrating when celebrities, or anyone, gets married and then calls it quits a few years, months, or even days into the marriage. What ever happened to the sanctity of marriage? Thus, it is refreshing when couples like Seal and Heidi Klum renew their vows.
According to Heidi Klum and Seal Renew Their Wedding Vows, the couple renewed their vows on Saturday during sunset on the beach in Costa Careyes, Mexico. Only their children and a couple family members were present. Afterward, there was a reception with about 80 people. Keeping with having a theme, the couple asked people to dress in white and black like brides and grooms.
Klum and Seal met in early 2004 and married in 2005. Seal is best known for his beautiful voice and Klum is for her work with Victoria’s Secret. Together, they have four children, including seven-month-old Lou. Although, Klum’s first child has a different biological father, according to Celeb Watch: Heidi Klum relishes her model family life Klum says, “Seal is Leni’s father.” The singer and model have been married for five years. Respectively, five years isn’t that long but any marriage takes work and it is nice to see people who want to say, “I Do,” again and again.
Some people are less than thrilled about the two celebrities renewing their vows. According to Dimewars.com, by “renewing their vows every five minutes” perhaps these “celebrities are a little insecure about something?” Yet, according to Heidi Klum and Seal renew vows for fifth time, Klum told Redbook that her and her husband love renewing their vows. Furthermore, the supermodel says, “It’s so special to us, something we love and something our children have gotten accustomed to. It’s like, ‘Hey, Mom and Dad love each other and they get married every year!'” Thus, is it sweet to renew your vows every year? Or is it excessive and expensive? I wonder if they will still be renewing their vows in twenty years? I say, who cares what the rest of the world thinks. Some people like to celebrate their anniversary with a nice, quiet dinner. Others like having a big party with all of their friends. If rekindling the romance takes some vow reading and a ceremony, I say do it. To each their own, right?
Therefore, I am giving my blessings to Seal and Heidi. May you have many more anniversaries to celebrate.
