Seal couldn't be prouder of his kids, regardless of what they do!
Most recently, he gushed over his son Henry, who earlier this month stepped into the spotlight and made his modeling debut during Paris Fashion Week.
In addition to Henry, whose full name Henry Günther Ademola Dashtu Samuel, and who the "Kiss from a Rose" singer shares with ex-wife Heidi Klum, he is also a dad to Johan, 18, and Lou, 15, plus he adopted the Project Runway alum's daughter Leni, 20.
Seal, speaking with Us Weekly about Henry making his runway debut at the Lena Erziak Haute Couture show earlier this month, said frankly: "Listen, I am proud of anything they do."
"If Henry was sweeping the streets, but he was passionate about it, I would be just as proud as seeing him walk down a catwalk," he endearingly maintained.
The doting dad further shared: "The thing that I always tell them is that, 'The point of life is to be happy. Find something you love and do it with all your heart and if it makes you happy, then do it.'"

Heidi and Seal were married 2005 to 2014, though appear to still have a friendly relationship. Heidi, who welcomed her first child Leni with ex Flavio Briatore, has since married German guitarist Tom Kaulitz, in 2019, while Seal has been in a relationship with Laura Strayer since 2021.

"That's what I did with music. I wasn't following in anyone's footsteps. I just happened to find this thing that I loved that I couldn't live without. And then the success was a byproduct of that."
