Leni Klum hit back at trolls who criticised her risqué lingerie ads with her mother Heidi as she covered Glamour Germany in a striking shoot on Tuesday.

The model, 20, and her mother, 51, made headlines last year when they appeared in a Sєxy ad for Italian lingerie brand Intimissimi. 

But Leni is blocking out the haters and focusing on her career and life in New York City.

She told Glamour: ‘I always try to remember that no matter what you do, there will always be someone who doesn’t like it. 

‘You simply have no control over it and you can’t focus too much on the negative. That can easily happen, especially if you spend a lot of time on social media. But there are so many more positive reactions. 

‘Oh, and: Most of the comments are in German, and I don’t really understand many of them. That helps too, of course!’

She posed on the Glamour cover in a frilly white dress with and elaborate petal headpiece and fixed the camera with a sultry stare.

Heidi shares her oldest, Leni, with the Italian businessman Flavio Briatore, whom she split from while still pregnant. 

She began a relationship with the singer Seal shortly afterward, and the two tied the knot in 2005, four years before he adopted Leni at the age of five. Heidi and the singer went on to share three biological children: sons Henry, 19, and Johan, 17, as well as daughter Lou, 15. 

She wed Tokio H๏τel guitarist Tom Kaulitz in December 2018.

Last October fans were vocal about how disturbing they found the pH๏τos of both Heidi and Leni showing off their bodies in lingerie while arm in arm.

Commenters on Intimissimi’s Instagram post were largely positive, but several vocal users were concerned or disturbed by the mother–daughter display. 

‘Dude that’s your mom,’ one person put it bluntly. 

Another person wondered, ‘Which normal mom would pose together with her daughter in lingerie?’ 

But Leni is blocking out the haters and focusing on her career. She told Glamour: ‘I always try to remember that no matter what you do, there will always be someone who doesn’t like it’

She added: ‘You simply have no control over it and you can’t focus too much on the negative. That can easily happen, especially if you spend a lot of time on social media’

‘Family business it must be continued!’ replied one user. 

‘What normal mom would pose together with her daughter in lingerie?’ one concerned fan shared on social media.

‘There’s something wrong there,’ added another person in agreement.

Heidi blocked comments on her post.

In her pH๏τos and video, Heidi showcased her toned abs in a lacy burgundy set as she posed next to Leni, who had on a black bra and panties. 

During her chat with Glamour Leni also made rare comments about her relationship with boyfriend Aris Rachevsky, 20.

He is the son of Los Angeles talent agent Rhea Rachevsky, according to W magazine. She reps Davis Factor and Dah-Len.

Klum and her boyfriend have been linked ever since 2019.

Speaking about their relationship she told the publication: ‘Oh, I’ve learned a lot. After all, we met when we were both only 15 – and now we’re in our early 20s. That’s a special time when you learn a lot about yourself and change a lot. 

‘Going on this journey together has been extremely beautiful. We’ve been able to experience many different versions of each other and always support each other in growing. Without trying to change the other.’
