Heidi Klum opens up about the divorce with Seal in Elle. She makes it to the cover of Elle magazine featured as an exclusive for April 2012. We've been wondering when the emotions are going to pour out into the public. Elle got first dibs.

Here are some quotes of the interview:

Life is like a tornado:

"I feel like I'm in the eye of the tornado. It's emotions inside of your body that are a tornado. And then the outside world doing all this craziness - with you wanting it or not wanting it - is another tornado. But as hard as it is, so is life. And sometimes I think a curve-ball just comes at you. Instead of something straight that you catch, it hits you in the head from the side that you didn't expect."

On gossip:

"I feel like already there are so many things being said about us - about him, about me. I'm not going to comment. Otherwise it makes you angry. You can't always call and say, 'This is not true, but this part is true. He's a grown man. I can't tell him what to do and what not to do. It's hard. People don't need to know who did what. I don't want to talk positively or negatively about the ups and downs that we had. Every couple goes through things. Unfortunately, we're in the public, so the highs are out there. But I don't think it's necessary- especially for our children-to have the lows being printed in magazines and talked about. I'm a lioness. I have four cubs. I'm a mom. I want to take care of my kids and protect them. I don't want to talk about them, or him, or me."

On Hypocrisy and Heart of Child:

"In my job, people tell you that all the time: 'This shoot was great. You look amazing.' But you never know what they say when you turn away. You can't think about that-you'd go mental. But the kids don't edit anything. When they kiss you and tell you they love you and say, 'Mama, you're the best' - that's really the only thing you care about."
