Just days after their lavish second wedding, Heidi Klum and hubby Tom Kaulitz found themselves in some deep water during their honeymoon.
RadarOnline.com has learned the newlyweds are facing a stiff fine for swimming in the island of Capri’s famous Blue Grotto – a serious no-no according to Italian law. The couple allegedly dived into the waters from a yacht shortly before sunset on Monday, August 5. People can visit the grotto by boat, but swimming is strictly forbidden.
"Last night at 5:30 pm Heidi Klum and some friends, there were 20 people, drove to the Blue Grotto, where she took a bath,” a statement translated from Italian detailed. “As we know That this is forbidden, but this time the Italian police stopped them outside. "
Klum and Kaulitz now face a fine of 6,000 euros. That’s about $6,728 in U.S. dollars.
This is not the first time the couple have decided to take a dip in the forbidden waters. Exactly a year ago, Klum posted a video of her and Kaultiz swimming in the grotto, making out as an unseen singer serenaded the lovebirds.
As RadarOnline.com reported, Klum, 46, and rocker Kaulitz, 29, have been secretly married for months, before hosting a big ceremony over the weekend in Italy.
On Friday, August 2, the bride and groom kicked off the pre-wedding festivities by cruising with pals and Klum’s four kids around Capri on the luxury yacht, the Christina O.
The next day, they hosted around 100 guests for the big ceremony.
“I don’t know when the last time I was this happy in my life,” Klum has previously said. “He is absolutely wonderful. Maybe it’s because he is German, and we understand each other in a different way.”
That special understanding will now cost them a few bucks, it seems. But that’s the price of true love!
