You may know Miranda Kerr for being a pretty face, but trust us when we say there’s much more to her than that. So many of us watched her walk the Victoria’s Secret runway in the 2000s and aspired to be her. As the first Australian model to become one of the Victoria’s Secret Angels, Miranda stayed totally grounded and true to her roots.
We can’t begin to express how much we love her. Kind, thoughtful, and humble, Miranda’s personality shines brightly through everything she does. While some people may get caught up in fame, Miranda remains one of the most down-to-earth people we’ve ever met.
And we absolutely loved meeting her! She came on the Him & Her show to discuss her life, her beauty brand KORA Organics, and her tips for being beautiful—inside & out. If you want to know more, this article is for you. But, it’s best to hear it straight from the Angel herself. The Miranda Kerr podcast with TSC is available for you below:
Who Is Miranda Kerr?
For those of you who weren’t totally obsessed with the Victoria’s Secret Angels back in the day, we’ll do a little rundown of Miranda Kerr’s life. She’s an Aussie model who took her opportunities and turned them into a strong brand. But, before she got into all that, she was just a young girl in Gunnedah, New South Wales.
At age 13, Miranda entered into a modeling competition with her friend. To her surprise, she won the 1997 annual Dolly Magazine model competition. At the time, she knew almost nothing about the world of fashion. To hear more about her first experiences with modeling, check out her episode of the Him & Her show.
After finishing high school, but before she began modeling full time, Miranda studied nutrition and health psychology at the Academy of Natural Living in Australia. She’d developed a passion for health after growing up with her grandma, as well as seeing the effects of food on her mother’s health. Miranda sees her childhood as a foundation for who she is now, and it’s evident in the way she talks. See for yourself!
In the mid-2000s, Miranda began modeling for Victoria’s Secret. In 2007, she was named a Victoria’s Secret Angel. She walked the runway as an angel from 2007 to 2013. Miranda continued to model after 2013. But, she began switching her focus to her organic skincare brand, KORA Organics, which she launched in 2009.
Who Is Miranda Kerr Married To?
Miranda Kerr is currently married to the founder of Snapchat, Evan Spiegel. They met in 2014 at a Louis Vuitton event, after Miranda’s split with her ex, Orlando Bloom. They’d been seated together intentionally, and it was the right move. The two hit it off immediately, even exchanging numbers at the end of the night.
But, Miranda was the one who actually made the first move over text, as Evan was sure that she was out of his league. In his mind, he wasn’t going to waste his time pursuing someone who wouldn’t be interested.
Miranda was interested, though, and sent him a text asking if he’d ever listened to the song she’d recommended in their first conversation, “Spiegel im Spiegel” by Arvo Pärt. They became friends for a long time, and later began dating. When they married in 2017, Miranda wore a custom Dior wedding dress designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri, the artistic director for Dior.
Now, Miranda and Evan have a beautiful blended family, between Miranda’s son Flynn (whom she had with Orlando Bloom) and their children, Hart, Myles, and Pierre.
Why Did Miranda Kerr Leave VS?
Miranda Kerr left Victoria’s Secret for multiple reasons, but ultimately, she couldn’t dedicate the time to it anymore. She was busy both with family and with her own beauty product line, KORA Organics. While rumors spread about why Miranda might be leaving, both Victoria’s Secret and Miranda appear to regard each other positively.
Miranda told us even more about what the VS Angel community was like. She loves the women she worked with! To learn more, check out her episode here.
