Heidi Klum's daughter, Leni, took time out from her busy modeling schedule for a spot of rest and relaxation recently and let fans in on her downtime.

The 18-year-old dazzled in floral, pink swimwear as she kicked back to enjoy the sun.

"She is indeed the most beautiful girl on this planet," wrote one, while a second added: "Boy kids grow up fast. Beautiful!! People say fruit doesn't fall far from the tree," while a third said: "Guess I found the definition of absolute perfection."

Heidi recently surprised her fans when she reunited with Leni's dad, Flavio Briatore, at the Monaco Grand Prix.

She posed up a storm with Flavio and appeared to be having a great time. Also in the photos, were her husband, Tom Kaulitz, Flavio's wife, Elisabetta Gregoraci, and model, Naomi Campbell, who also dated the Italian businessman. 

Leni showed off her model figure as she soaked up the sun 

Fans were stunned at the cozy reunion and commented: "Ex wives club?" and, "3 exes," along with shocked face emojis. 

The amicable gathering is especially surprising, given that Flavio stepped away from parenting his daughter with Heidi.

Leni is the first of Heidi's four children

Flavio told Italy's Il Corriere della Sera: "Leni is my natural daughter, but the three of us happily agreed that it made more sense if Seal adopted her, because a child needs to grow up in a family."

The 72-year-old now has a son, Nathan, 12, with his wife, and has said: "It's hard to miss a baby that you never see. But I know that Leni is not an abandoned child. Leni is part of Seal's family and Nathan is part of mine."

Heidi and Flavio started dating in early 2003 and that December, she announced she was pregnant. 

The pair's relationship didn't last, though, and the Germany's Next Top Model host began dating Seal while she was pregnant, and he then raised Leni as his own. 

They were married in 2005, but split in 2012 after having three children, Lou, Johan and Henry together. Heidi tied the knot with her Tokio Hotel rocker, Tom, in 2019.
