"All good things have to come to an end. I will always love Victoria and will never tell her secret," the German-born mother-of-four said in a statement, obtained by the Associated Press, Friday.

Klum, 37, is among the most famous supermodels in the world, strutting her stuff in international catwalks and appearing in print and TV ads for fashion labels and brands like McDonalds and Volkswagen.

She landed in the number 2 spot of Forbes' list of the world's top-paid models, reportedly earning $6 million last year.

Although no specific reason was given for her departure, Klum said she will focus on her other ventures, including her hosting gig on "Project Runway," which is in its 8th season, and her new clothing line with New Balance, to be sold exclusively on Amazon.
