She didn't cheat, but she is moving on. Heidi Klum confirmed rumors that she is dating her bodyguard Martin Kristen on Katie Couric's new show Katie, where she talked about the beginnings of — a friendship? a relationship? a rebound? "I've known him for four years, and he's been with our family for the last four years. He's cared for our entire family, mostly for our four children [and] helped us tremendously," Klum said. "I trust him, I trust him with my children's life. He's a great man, and we just got to know each other from a completely different side."

Klum, 39, recently divorced from long-time husband Seal, explained that the budding relationship is yet undefined. "I don't even know if I can call it that," Klum said. "It just started. I don't know where it's going to go." Klum's words come shortly after Seal indirectly accused the top model and mother of four of cheating with "the help" during their marriage, which she fervently denied. "I don't know if we're the greatest friends right now, especially, you know, the things that he said. We're in an OK place," Klum said of her relationship with Seal. "He has a very unique choice of words, I'm used to them. Obviously, I don't know, I don't love that and obviously it's not true. I never looked at another man while I was with him. And it's hard when you think that he thinks that. He's moved on. When we separated, he moved on and so have I."

Klum's focus for now is neither her new nor former flame, but rather her kids. "My oldest is 8, my youngest is turning 3, and I'm thinking about them. I want to be a good mom for them. I'm taking it one day at a time."
