    Heidi Klum has admitted that her divorce with Seal has got messy after he made controversial comments about her supposed relationship with her bodyguard

    Heidi Klum has admitted that her relationship with Seal has become strained since he made controversial comments about the circumstances in which she supposedly got romantically involved with her bodyguard.

    After photos emerged of Heidi cosying up to her bodyguard on holiday in Sardinia, Seal quipped that he was disappointed in his ex-wife, saying that she lacked 'class' and he thought she would have 'at least wait until we separated first before deciding to fornicate with the help.'

    SEAL ACCUSES HEIDI KLUM OF CHEATING ON HIM?

    The former Victoria's Secret model then responded by releasing a statement saying: 'It is sad that Sealhas to resort to this kind of behavior and spread these untruths about the mother of his children.'

    Before Sealthen clarified that 'he was not implying his wife was cheating while they were together, but he was merely pointing out that their separation and divorce were not final and they are still legally married.'

    After all this, it's no surprise that Klum has gone on the record to say that she and Seal are not on the best terms with each other at the moment.

    'I don't know if we're the greatest friends right now, especially because of the things that he said,' Klum admitted to Katie Couric in a pre-taped interview for her show this week.

    'I just saw him on, on Sunday. We were talking and we're in an okay place.'

    She continued: 'It's a work in progress. You have to take it one day at a time. It's hard especially when you are in the public eye too. People are always looking at you closely and at everything you do. And they also don't always see exactly how it really is.'

    She added: 'I haven't felt like correcting every rumour that is out there. I'm focusing on moving forward.'
