Heidi Klum’s ex-partner Vito Schnabel and his new wife Helena Althof were spotted together in public for the first time since they quietly tied the knot last month.

The 38-year-old art dealer and the 21-year-old Russian model were spotted strolling in New York City’s West Village on Thursday, according to photos obtained by Page Six.

Schnabel and Althof stayed close together as they walked stoically down a busy street.

The respected gallery owner was casually dressed in light brown Aviator Nation sweatpants, a black T-shirt and white sneakers.

Althof matched her husband’s look with neon yellow Aviator Nation sweatpants with checkered details, a long white-sleeved top, and white shoes. She accessorized with silver necklaces and black sunglasses, and her long brunette hair was blow-dried straight.

Although it is unclear whether the newlyweds had just returned from their honeymoon, they appeared tanned and sun-kissed during their trip to Manhattan.

Page Six confirmed that Schnabel and Althof said “I do” on July 9 in Old Westbury, NY.

According to Artnet News’ gossip column Wet Paint, they had “a very small and very private ceremony.”

Attendees reportedly included Rolling Stone co-founder Jann Wenner, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner. Schnabel’s sister, actress Stella, and her famous father Julian were not present.

We heard that wedding invitations were sent out a week before the wedding, giving guests only seven days to RSVP.

“It looked like an invitation to a child’s birthday party,” our source said of the invitation, which featured Mickey and Minnie Mouse motifs.

The last-minute reception took place in Schnabel’s Richard Meier-designed villa, which he bought in 2019.

While Schnabel did not respond to Page Six’s request for comment, Althof confirmed the marriage news by posting a photo on Instagram in her wedding dress and tiara, with the caption, “Oops…”

The two first met in Saudi Arabia nearly two years ago while sailing on Mariah Carey’s ex-fiancé James Packer’s yacht. Althof was reportedly 19 at the time.

This is Schnabel’s first time tying the knot, although he has been linked to several celebrity women in the past, including Amber Heard, Irina Shayk and Klum.

The “Project Runway” presenter was with Schanebl for almost three years before the two split in 2017.

Klum, 51, married Tom Kaluitz in 2019. The German model was previously married to Rick Pipino from 1997 to 2002 and to Seal from 2005 to 2014.

She and the “Kiss from a Rose” singer have three children together: Henry, 18, Johan, 17, and Leni, 20.

Seal adopted Leni, whom Klum gave birth to with her ex-partner Flavio Briatore, in 2009 when she was five years old.
