Heidi Klum says her husband Tom Kaulitz ‘looks best naked’

Heidi Klum says her husband Tom Kaulitz “looks good in everything,” but she prefers him to wear nothing at all.

“He definitely looks best naked,” the 50-year-old supermodel tells PEOPLE in an exclusive new interview. “He does! He just does it.”

I was running outside, jogging and everything,” she explains. “So I feel like over the years, and especially since I met (Tom), I’ve become more relaxed.”
