Heidi Klum and daughter Leni sparked an online debate after posing together in lingerie.

Klum, 51, and Leni, 20, stood side by side for an ad for Intimissimi, which was shared on Instagram on Monday.

The “America's Got Talent” judge wore maroon underwear and a bra set, while Leni posed in a black set.

Comments were mixed, with some sharing their discomfort with the mother-daughter duo posing in lingerie.

“This makes me uncomfortable,” one user wrote.

“Heidi looks fantastic. But why would you pose with your mother in revealing lace lingerie?” another added. “Makes me feel gross. And before anyone tells me to unfollow. Don't do it! I comment.

“Dude, that’s your mom,” someone shared.

However, not everyone had a problem with the image.

“Two beautiful ladies! I can't imagine why anyone would criticize this. People have been modeling underwear forever,” one user wrote.

“This photo doesn’t bother me,” another added. “Nothing alarming is happening here. The underwear is not suggestive. I don’t understand what this is about.”

A representative for Klum did not respond to Fox News Digital's immediate request for comment.

Leni started her modeling career at the age of 16. Klum and her daughter appeared together on the cover of Vogue Germany for the January/February 2021 issue.

“So excited for my first cover!! I had so much fun on set with @vogueGermany, I couldn't imagine a better start!! Thank you for being by my side @heidiklum,” Leni wrote on Instagram at the time.

Klum gave Leni advice in an interview with Fox News Digital in 2023.

“I think the best advice I've given my daughter as a model is to always be happy with yourself when you look in the mirror. I think that's the most important thing,” Klum said on the red carpet of “America's Got Talent.”

“Never try to please anyone,” Klum suggested. “I think it's important to say no… because I feel like… in general we want to be happy and… say 'yes' more than 'no.'” But I wanted her to know that you can just say no if you don't want to do something.

It's not the first time that Heidi and Leni have posed together for the Italian lingerie brand. Intimissimi published photos of the two posing together in bras and underwear in October 2022. This advertising campaign also received mixed reviews online.

“It's weird to sexualize your daughter as soon as she becomes legal,” one person wrote in the post.

“Very disturbing,” one user added.

“I like to think I'm progressive about these things, but mother and daughter in lingerie in the same video shoot is just a little gross,” said another user.

Others praised the original campaign.

“Amazing mother and daughter,” one wrote.

“Wow, finally a mommy model with her daughter instead of influencers I constantly have to see,” one user added. “Good publicity this time.”
