"So proud of you, my beautiful Henry!", the German model writes on Instagram with a photo of the cover of "Hunger" magazine.

Klum enthuses that it is an "incredible milestone" that the 19-year-old has made it onto a cover for the first time. She had always known that he was "destined for greatness", the mother of four continued.

On the cover, Henry poses shirtless, with a well-toned body, in Karl Lagerfeld trousers and jacket.

He was photographed by British celebrity photographer Rankin, who launched the magazine in 2011.

Henry, who comes from Klum's 2014 divorce from British singer Seal, made his catwalk debut at a fashion show in Paris in January.

Klum's eldest daughter Leni (20) followed in her mother's footsteps as a model a few years ago.

Klum is currently hosting the casting show " Germany's Next Topmodel " on ProSiebenfor the 20th time, which has been broadcast annually since 2006.
