Heidi Klum and her ex husband Seal found their diminutive duplicates on America’s Got Talent on Tuesday.
It was surely a startling moment for the Kiss From A Rose singer and guest judge, who divorced the blonde model in 2014.
But the pair were clearly delighted to see their tiny doppelgängers, dancers Artyon and Paige who had already planned their wedding down to the finest details.

‘I want diamond shoes,’ announced nine-year-old Paige, clearly giddy at the thought of her future nuptials.
‘It’s a mini Seal and Heidi!’ cackled 44-year-old Heidi, who has remained remarkably friendly with the English warbler since their divorce.
Artyon, eight, and Piage danced to Time Of My Life and ended up receiving a standing ovation.
‘I now realize why this show is the biggest show in America,’ said Seal, 54, who has four children with Heidi.
