What became of her first husband Ric Pipino?

On June 1, 2023, Heidi Klumi celebrated her 50th birthday and couldn’t be happier. The mother of four children found her great happiness in love with Tom Kaulitz, 33. In 2019, the couple said yes on a yacht off Capri. But the “Tokio Hotel” star was not the first husband in Heidi’s life.

Heidi Klum and Ric Pipino were a scandal-free couple for 5 years

In the Australian Ric Pipino, Heidi Klum found her happiness in love at a young age. In 1997, at the age of 24, the model married the star hairdresser, who was 13 years her senior. The couple lived in New York for a few years. “It was love at first sight,” the native Australian will say later. After five years of scandal-free marriage, in 2002, they separated and finally divorced a year later.

There was never bad blood between the two in all the years that followed. When the GNTM chief judge got engaged to her Tom at Christmas 2018, Ric Pipino left loving greetings. “Congratulations, Heidi Klum, I’m so happy for you,” he wrote under the couple photo of the two newly engaged couple, which he reposted on his own Instagram account. But what is Heidi’s husband number one doing today?

Still a successful star hairdresser and hairstylist today

Ric Pipino is still a successful businessman. He continues to work as a hairdresser and hair stylist and is one of the most sought-after hairdressers in the USA. His customers include greats like Lady Gaga, Diane Lane and Donna Karan. The entrepreneur offers his services not only in New York, but also in the US metropolises of Miami, St. Louis, Dallas and Los Angeles. Ric Pipino is a real jet set hairdresser.

This is how it works privately for the native Australian

Things couldn’t be better for Ric Pipino in his private life either. In December 2020, he tied the knot with his partner Janet Marcel in Santa Barbara. With her he has daughter Sloane. The relationship with his ex-girlfriend produced three children together: Bowie, Valentine and Roxie. The proud father occasionally shows his offspring to his fans on Instagram.

And how has Ric Pipino changed visually?

Visually, the Australian has hardly changed since separating from Heidi. His hair, which was gray at the time, is now snow-white and the hairstylist, who lives in New York, now wears glasses. His beard and his smile stayed.
