She made her name as a supermodel and now Miranda Kerr is embarking on a new chapter as a skincare mogul. Here, she talks to Alexandra Carlton about learning to let go, raisinga modern family and the art of making women feel good
On the day before I’m due to speak to her at her LA home, a paparazzi shot makes its way around the internet showing Miranda Kerr picking up her sevenyear-old son, Flynn, in her Aston Martin. The little boy had spent the evening with his dad, Orlando Bloom, 42 – who Kerr was married to from 2010 to 2013 – and Bloom’s current partner, Katy Perry, 34. In the shot, Kerr is leaning across the passenger seat of the car and handing Perry a birthday gift, smiling. Bloom and Perry, who have been dating on and offsince 2017, seem equally relaxed as they usher Flynn into the car with his mum. ‘Oh, I haven’t seen that photo,’ says Kerr. ‘But I went to pick up Flynny because it was Katy’s birthday, and they walked him out. It was so nice to see Katy. We all get along really well.’ The warmth in the photo suggests she’s sincere. ‘We’re like a modern family,’ she adds.
Once upon a time, seeing such a candid side of Kerr, 35, would have been a novelty. She has a reputation for being somewhat controlled. The strict organic diet. The schedule of yoga, meditation and positive affirmations. The rumour (not true) that she waited to consummate the relationship with her second husband, Evan Spiegel – the 28-year-old Snapchat wunderkind – until after their wedding in May 2017. Combine the reputation with that face, impeccable hair, jet-set lifestyle and successful business, Kora Organics, and Kerr can come across as superhuman.
But these days there’s something more down-to-earth about the girl from Gunnedah, New South Wales in Australia, as she demonstrates when I sit down with her at a Sydney hotel for the first part of our interview. Dressed in blue jeans, a white T-shirt and a shimmer of bling in the form of sequinned Balenciaga heels, Kerr has just finished introducing her new Kora range to a crowd of beauty editors.
