Angel face: Heidi Klum walks the Victoria's Secret runway last year just five weeks after giving birth to daughter LouIt looks like one of the Victoria's Secret angels is finally flying away.
Heidi Klum has announced she is leaving after 13 highly successful years with the lingerie company.
As 'Head Angel', Heidi has been one of the most famous and recognisable faces (and figures!) of the brand.
And now she's decided the time has come to move on.
The IMG supermodel says: 'All good things have to come to an end. I will always love Victoria's Secret. It has been an absolutely amazing time.'
Heidi first walked for the company in 2002, and hosted the 2002, 2006, 2007, and 2009 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
She completely stole the show last year by walking the runway in lingerie just five weeks after giving birth.
Now that Heidi is leaving, a new 'Head Angel' will have to be appointed, and speculation is already rife as to who will be the chosen one.
As both Miranda Kerr and Doutzen Kroes are pregnant, Alessandria Ambrosio and Adriana Lima are in the running.
Or one of the newer Angels like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Candice Swanepoel, Chanel Iman and Erin Heatherton could be picked.
Glitz and glamour: Heidi walks the runway at the 2007 Victoria's Secret fashion show in HollywoodAside well as her Victoria's Secret work, Heidi has been involved in many other projects.
The German beauty modelled for Sports Illustrated, as well as being a spokesmodel for McDonald's, Braun, Dannon, Liz Claiborne and Volkswagen.
And she even made some forays into acting by appearing in TV shows Spin City, Sex and the City, Yes, Dear, and How I Met Your Mother.
Heidi also made memorable cameos in The Devil Wears Prada and Perfect Stranger.
There's no doubt that the 37-year-old is more than just a pretty face.
Klum was named by Forbes as third on the list of the World's 15 Top-Earning Supermodels in July 2007, having earned $8 million over the previous year.
And by 2009, her income was estimated at $16 million.
Amongst many other projects, Heidi is well-known for being the host, judge and executive producer of highly successful reality TV show Project Runway.
She is also the host, judge and co-producer of Germany's Next Top Model.
Heidi gave birth to her first child, daughter Leni, on May 4 2004. She broke up with Leni's father Flavio Briatore while she was still pregnant.

Heidi and Seal went on to have three children together: Henry, five, Johan, three and Lou, one.
Seal officially adopted six-year-old Leni, and her last name was changed to Samuel.
