Heidi Klum & Seal Welcome a Daughter

Auf wiedersehen, maternity clothes!

Heidi Klum gave birth to a girl, Lou Samuel, on Oct. 9 in Los Angeles, her rep confirms.

The supermodel and TV host's husband, Seal, released the following statement to PEOPLE after the birth of their daughter, who joins siblings Johan, 2 ½, Henry, 4, and Leni, 5.

"It's difficult to imagine loving another child as much as you love your existing children," Seal writes. "Anyone who has a family will tell you this. Where will one find that extra love? If you love your existing children with all of your heart, how then can one possibly find more heart with which to love another?"

"On Friday, Oct. 9, 2009, at 7:46 p.m., the answer to this question came in the form of our fourth child and second daughter," he continues. "Lou Sulola Samuel was born, and from the moment she looked into both of our eyes, it was endless love at first sight. She is beautiful beyond words and we are happy that she chose us to watch her grow over the coming years."

Back in April, Seal announced the pregnancy during a concert at Radio City Music Hall - much to his wife's surprise.

"[The news] came out faster than I wanted it to," Klum, 36, said at the time. "My husband kind of surprised me and everybody at one of his concerts."

But Seal wasn't the only one who was excited. The following month - citing Klum's inability to keep a secret - the couple revealed that their baby-on-the-way was a girl.

Klum recently applied to change her last name to Seal's surname of Samuel. She and the singer ("Kiss From a Rose") were married in 2005.

So instead of at 1 in the morning like all the other media outlets reported she had her that night instead.

They disappointed me with the name choice though.

I like Leni and Lou. Those are cute names for sisters. I would liked it she didn't have a middle name like Leni. I am sure Leni is a Samuel by now.

^ she might not be a samuel, her bio father refused to let seal adopt her, and you can't adopt a child without the bio dad agreeing to it, that's why seal hadn't done it earlier. . Lou Sulola is an ugly girl name IMO. The rumor was true she did have a daughter named lou on october 9th.

Leni is cute...Lou is heinous for a baby BOY.

Congrats to them!

From what I read here her mother can she change her last name without being adopted.

Yeah I think she can change Leni's last name. I think Seal can't have legal paternal rights.

Leni's biological father sounds like a real asshole. He refuses to be an actual father to her, but he won't let the man who loves her and is actually a father to her adopt her.

Where did you get this info that Leni's bio dad won't let Seal adopt her? I don't remember either Seal or Heidi ever saying this.

^ It was in some interview heidi did for a magazine shortly after johan was born, where they said they respect that flavio lets seal raise leni, and how they will never bash or talk bad about flavio, to leni, because she might want to know him one day. And how seal is her dad in all accounts, even though he can't adopt or change her name.

Leni's biological father IS an asshole and I wouldn't put it pass him to pull that stunt. Besides I also heard that was the case. He doesn't want anything to do with Leni, but he refuses to give up his rights... ya know just in case. Boo. Though Heidi and Seal CAN change Leni's last name to Samuel and I am sure they will if they haven't already.

So the rumors were right. I am sure Lou is short for something, just like Leni is really short for Helene. And Lou is a very popular female name in France. I wonder who was the inspiration.
