Heidi Klum Saves Son From Drowning In Hawaii

Heidi Klum helped saved her 7-year-old son, Henry, from drowning as the family spent Easter Sunday on the beaches of Oahu, Hawaii, when a raging riptide pulled the boy and two nannies into the water against their will.
“We got pulled into the ocean by a big wave,” the mother-of-four tells US Weekly. “Of course, as a mother, I was very scared for my child and everyone else in the water.”
“Henry is a strong swimmer and was able to swim back to land. We were able to get everyone out safely.”
The stunning America’s Got Talent judge said her bodyguard-turned-boyfriend, Martin Kristen, helped with the rescue effort.
She sent a tweet Sunday wishing her followers a happy Easter, but did not go into detail about the scare.
The 39-year-old German beauty, who was formerly married to Love's Divine singer Seal, has three other kids: daughter Leni, 8, and sons Johan, 6, and Lou, 3.
