During a 2024 appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast with Alex Cooper, Klum explained that she simply enjoys being without her top whenever it’s appropriate.
“Obviously, when you know, no one is there,” she said. “I’m in my garden also, you know, I’m topless.”
She will make an exception when her kids’ friends come over. “They will come, like, ‘You know, my friend is coming over, mom, put your top on.’ And I’m like, ‘When have I ever not had a top on when your friend was coming over? Of course, I will,'” she said, adding, “I also don’t want to flash anyone just to flash someone. I just don’t love tan lines.”

In another recent interview with People, she clarified that her kids don’t give her penchant for going topless a second thought—in fact, it’s made them more comfortable in their own bodies. “I’ve always been very open with my body. When I’m suntanning in the backyard, I might not have a top on,” she said. “I’m European …my kids don’t know me any other way and are probably more easygoing with their bodies because of it.”
