Supermodel, TV star, and “Halloween Queen” Heidi Klum is proof that you really can have it all!
ย
At 52, the mother of four has revealed a shocking medical diagnosis that she uses to balance her legendary career with her personal life.
ย
โI have a form of ADHD. I see it as something positive because it allows me to do more things at once. It’s my superpower,โ Klum said.
ย
โMaybe it’s instinct โ or just my own idea. I’m very hyperactive because of my ADHD. I can do a thousand different things at once. I work on many projects simultaneously and keep taking on more,โ said the โGermanyโs Next Top Modelโ star highlighting how she considers the disorder to be one of her greatest strengths.
ย
ADHD, short for attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder, is a common developmental disorder in which individuals can have difficulty paying attention; become hyperactive, even at inappropriate times; and act impulsively.

Last summer, ahead of her return โโto season 21 of โProject Runwayโ, Klum spoke about how she continues to make the most out of life.
ย
โIโm a workaholic, control freak,โ she said of her many hats. โI’ve been so focused with the shows that I have been doing and making sure that everything that comes out of them looks good. I love what I do.โ
ย
And as she gets older, she has no plans of stopping or making herself small to fit anyoneโs idea of how women in their 50s should behave.
ย
โThe biggest misconception [about] being in your 50s is that you are off the shelf. Youโre not off the shelf,โ Klum said. โWe are very much on that shelf for everyone to see. Donโt hide in your 50s. Beauty is ever-changing, and Iโm here for the change. If itโs always the same, life is boring.โ
