Quotes:
"It's [the adoption] only happened fairly recently. But it doesn't make her any more or less my daughter. She always has been. All it means is that both Heidi and I wanted her to have the same last name as the rest of us. It was about Leni. I don't want her to feel different because I know what that's like, being a kind of stepson. And I don't want that dynamic for my little girl." - Seal, on legally adopting Leni.
"Leni loves dresses and being a girlie girl. She hasn't really gone beyond pink. She actually came to the runway one day and she looked at the fashion show. She wasn't too impressed because it wasn't girlie enough. It was too sophisticated, maybe, and there wasn't enough pink in the clothes so she didn't love it so much." - Heidi, on her daughter's sense of style.
