Backlash over lingerie photographs with daughter forces Heidi Klum to limit Instagram account

Heidi Klum and her daughterLeni Klum have once again made headlines with a steamy lingerie photo shoot for Italian brand Intimissimi.

The mother-daughter duo posed together in a new campaign for the brand just in time for the holiday season, showcasing their bond in matching silk pajama sets.

However, the intimate nature of the shoot has sparked controversy, leading Heidi to disable the comments on her Instagram post.

In the video, the two start by unveiling a red box with an antique camera inside. Heidi, 51, and Leni, 20, initially model in red silk sets, but things heat up when Leni switches into a seductive black lace push-up bra.

The playful shoot continues as Leni takes a picture of Heidi, who changes into a red padded bra, and the pair share a tender moment on the couch, still dressed in their lingerie.

Critics are put off by the fact the two women are mother and daughter

While the campaign aims to be lighthearted and festive, it didn't go unnoticed by critics. Many questioned the appropriateness of a mother and daughter posing in revealing outfits, with some calling it "creepy" or "weird."

"Which normal mom would pose together with her daughter in lingerie?" one fan asked.

This backlash prompted Heidi to turn off comments on the post.

Despite the criticism, many defended the Klums, pointing out that lingerie modeling has long been a part of the fashion industry. Supporters also emphasized that both Heidi and Leni should be proud of their bodies and confident in their choices. Some even argued that there was nothing inappropriate about the campaign and encouraged others to "lighten up."

This isn't the first time the Klums have stirred controversy with their lingerie shoots. Last October, they faced similar criticism when they posed together for Intimissimi's Fall-Winter collection. Nonetheless, the duo continues to collaborate with the brand, showing that their mother-daughter partnership remains strong.

While reactions to the photo shoot are mixed, Heidi and Leni seem unfazed by the backlash. The two continue to showcase their close relationship both on and off the camera, embracing their confidence and defying the critics.
