LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: What's the best gift you can give to your loved ones? Surely renovating their house must not be the first thing that pops up in your mind. But, just imagine how good it must feel to someone to get their house remodeled as a gift. Appearing in Season 6 of HGTV's 'Celebrity IOU,' Heidi Kulm is all set to open up her big heart and repay someone she cherishes.

Heidi wants to surprise her housekeeper Lucia. As she always had her back, whether it be good or bad times, Heidi believes it's her time to return the unconditional love and support. Doing this makeover with the help of Jonathan and Drew Scott, Heidi gets down to remove the old flooring of her housekeeper's home and replace it with a sparkling new one.

Who is Lucia?

Lucia is Heidi Klum's long-term housekeeper. She has been working for Heidi for almost 17 years now. Heidi says in an interview with People that Lucia "always has my back." She added, "It feels good that now I can have hers, too." Lucia has a large family and living together under the same roof has been difficult to handle. Therefore, to make her living conditions a bit better, Heidi transforms Lucia's living and kitchen area into an open-concept space. 

Seeing Heidi make an effort to make her housekeeper feel special by renovating her house, Jonathan claimed, "Nothing is sweeter than the moment when you hand the keys back over and you say, it's yours, and you've changed somebody's life. It feels really wonderful." Drew on the other hand says, "To be a part of that, and for these celebrities to bring us into the fold and trust us to be able to help them give back to someone they love, that really means a lot."



 

Heidi Klum flaunts arm muscle while renovating housekeeper Lucia's home

Heidi will be seen helping Jonathan and Drew install a hardwood floor in Lucia's home. She will be seen removing the old floor and then installing a new one. While doing so, Heidi flexes to show off her toned arms. 'Property Brothers' star Jonathan instantly takes out the measuring tape to measure Heidi's biceps. As they end up comparing their arm muscles, Jonathan claimed, "I have two and a half inches more muscle than Heidi Klum." Heidi then joked, "I'm not doing too well then." Jonathan further joked, "It's important because that's my next career." He then talks about the kickstart of a new career saying, "Runway modeling. Victoria's Secret, that's not my name. Victor's Secret, that's my kind of line that I'll model."

Besides Heidi, 'Celebrity IOU' Season 6 will have more celebrity stars like Glenn Close, Kristin Davis, Kristin Chenoweth, Derek Hough, Jay Leno, Emma Roberts, Taraji P. Henson, and Julianne Hough.



 

'Celebrity IOU' Season 6 will release on May 15 at 8 pm ET/PT on HGTV.
