(Reuters) - Supermodel and "Project Runway" TV host Heidi Klum and British singer Seal are separating after seven years of marriage, a parting the pair termed amicable in a statement on Sunday night."While we have enjoyed seven very loving, loyal and happy years of marriage, after much soul-searching we have decided to separate," the two said in a statement.
"We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart."
The German-born Klum and Seal, who married in 2005, have four children ranging in age from 2 to 7. They said protecting the well-being of their children was their top priority.
They also thanked family and friends for their support.
Signs of trouble in their marriage surfaced over the weekend on celebrity magazine websites, surprising fans of the couple who had seemed to enjoy a stable relationship.
The two released a steamy music video in September 2010 for the Grammy-winning singer's single "Secrets," which featured the naked couple in bed together.
In an interview with Reuters at the time, Seal said that he had titled his sixth album "Commitment" because that was a recurring theme for him, particularly since meeting Klum.
The couple, who at one time renewed their marriage vows every year, in 2010 were also preparing to shoot a pilot program for cable television that gave couples the chance to have the wedding of their dreams.

Susan • Irvine, California • 2 days 8 hrs ago Sorry to say the excuse is we have grown apart. They need to say we have gown together and stay together. Unless there is abuse, other people involved they need to work on the relationship. They have children's lives involved that need them as Mom and Dad together. They both are successful people and are good at what they do. Just try harder at your marriage and work things out so it will be a happy ending for all. 4fun • 3 days ago As much as I thought these two seemed like an unlikely couple, I'm surprised they're breaking up. They always gave the impression that they were the two who could make it work in that world. Unfortunate for the kids. Troll • North Pole, Alaska • 3 days ago This marriage would have been an eternity.... for a Kardashian Diane • 2 days 8 hrs ago People do grow apart no matter how much they love each other. I wish them both the best. happy4you • Los Angeles, California • 1 day 19 hrs ago So Mr. Seal tells us, they enjoyed 7 beautiful loving years together. And now its over. I dont believe them. Someone messed up and wants out due to another love interest. If it was that great, WHY would they just walk away, just because its gotten a bit more distant. Most who really love and respect their marriage would wait it out. Heck, they got married every year. Can't 1 of those years be one where they work THROUGH feelings that always surface in all relationships? Evenyone has to wait it out sometimes. If they had 7 beautiful years, maybe the 8th one is the one they work through? Hum, I dont get it. There has to be more to it. 7 years and 4 kids? And it's over after all they share?? Make it work, sheesh. Olaf • 3 days ago I'm sorry to hear this, I hoped it would be false. Always sad for kids when their parents break up. And these two have four kids-regardless if one is adopted I'm sure the kid thinks of Seal as its father and vice versa. P s • Ellicott City, Maryland • 1 day 21 hrs ago "We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart."Who do they try to fool? That's a bunch of crap. If you love each other very much, there is nothing you can do to keep yourself together. Obviously you don't love each other enough to stay together. Why don't you just say we can't stand each other and i just want to dump him/her. Typical Hollywood line when they are getting divorced.
troy • Charleston, South Carolina • 19 hrs ago i think it is total #$%$Seal and Heidi hopefully don't need money, but this is the norm for hollywood-split-sell newspapers-sell the story to the internet-the E news-hollywood tonight and every newspaper and social media vehicle- Seal and Heidi/ Heidi and Seal are going to get paid off of this separation story-they maybe splitting-but they are still going to screw-where will they go-who can they top-both are VERY HARD ACT's To FOLLOW-view there wedding song-hot stuff-ciao don juan de marco • Chico, California • 1 day 14 hrs ago This news has destroyed my life . Joey • Elmhurst, Illinois • 2 days 2 hrs ago Awww they were so in love...Heidi was so happy all the time....what a woman....her naked body is still fantastic eric szablewski • Milwaukee, Wisconsin • 3 days ago So sad... thought they were the exception. NubsNob • Harbor Springs, Michigan • 3 days ago #$%$ The word amicable can never be used in a sentence containing the word divorce! I wonder if he had to sign a pre-nup? Somewhere, somehow, someone is doing someone else. Angela S • Carlisle, Pennsylvania • 3 days ago Oh please. Why I read this stuff is beyond me, but I have to ask- Does anyone else notice that when it comes to celebrity couples, a little "rumor" is broken that they are splitting only to have the couple deny it, then confirm it within the next several days. Ah to be a celebrity.... Gina • Las Vegas, Nevada • 3 days ago Awwwwwwww!!! I liked them together!!!! skubie • 3 days ago They have 3 children together. The oldest is from Heidi's previous relationship, and was pregnant when she began dating Seal. Sounds like a soap opera. Beverly Rose • 2 days 22 hrs ago You just gotta face it people, love and money cannot coincide in Hollywood. david • 2 days 17 hrs ago Well she is the one who got on the talk shows telling about why she was so impressed with him. He seemed more quite about things . She wanted to film videos of them in bed together like she wanted to broadcast it to the world .What's he supposed to do ,turn down a world class super model who has lots of money ,after she throws herself at him . I've heard of other people like this referred to as size queens .Maybe she found somebody a silly millimeter longer ,and couldn't resisit ? mharris2012 • Los Angeles, California • 2 days 20 hrs ago Another one bite's the dust!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sonia • Kingston, Jamaica • 3 days ago heidi and seal should be ashamed of themselves, look at how they projected themselves before the public, and then calling this quits just like that, i say to them,' you do not know the meaning of love, or compromise,because love is also to compromise, you both need to ask the public and yourselves for forgiveness,and begin to love each other again,even your children, because you are both two selfish individuals,' John Moon • Little Falls, New Jersey • 1 day 7 hrs ago I thought it was a bad idea when I read about it the first time Heidi hooked up with the guy! Something wrong with him, leaving a beautiful lady like Heid Klum. Blows my mind why she got with such an ugly guy. Pretty much the same with Eva Longoria. Who else screwed up didn't know how good they had it, Tiger Woods. Anyone notice the pattern here?
