Supermodel Miranda Kerr has opened up about her relationship with Snapchat founder Evan Spiegel in an interview with The Times, describing her partner as “very traditional.”
The interview, which promotes her latest collaboration with US-label Mother, centred primarily on her skincare line and her six-year-old son Flynn, before Kerr asked the interviewer: “Are you going to have another baby?”
When the interviewer, Richard Godwin, said that he wasn’t going to for a while, Kerr asked, “So what are you using for protection? Are you pulling out or what?”
Godwin said he and his partner were using birth control, to which Kerr said, “I don’t!”
But the supermodel said she has no plans of having another baby in the immediate future. “Not yet,” she told Godwin. “Not until after we get married. My partner is very traditional.”
Godwin writes in his column, “I am clearly so out of the loop when it comes to millennial sex trends that it takes me a while to grasp her meaning; she appears to be telling me that she and the man she is marrying have never had sex.”
He pressed her on her “traditional relationship,” to which the 33-year-old responded, “We can’t… I mean we’re just… waiting.”
Kerr went on to describe how she met her now 26-year-old fiancé at a dinner in 2014. “I was, like, ‘He’s cute… but he’s way too young to take anything too seriously,'” she said.
“It was slow and steady. I was like, ‘Is he even interested?’ But once I let him know I was interested, he was very interested.” “He’s a private guy,” she said. “He’s very mysterious. And he’s very in the moment.”
Of Spiegel’s company, Snapchat, Kerr said she’s “obsessed.” And she’s not at all happy with Instagram’s attempt to imitate Snapchat’s features.
“Can they not be innovative?” she said. “Do they have to steal all of my partner’s ideas? I’m so appalled by that.”
Ultimately, she said she “couldn’t be more proud of Evan and what he’s achieved.”
Her partner is, after all, the world’s youngest self-made billionaire.
And I really wish I wasn’t so interested in their sex life.

If you read the whole interview the interviewer asks her some very personal questions about her before she asked that one back to him.
Do we really need to know anything about their sex life? Is there nothing more interesting to talk to her about? And very rude of her to ask the interviewer about his contraception methods.
Agree. And she comes across as flaky - seems to change her persona depending on what product she is spruiking at the same time.
"Is there nothing more interesting to talk to her about?"
Evidently, no. Showing off her true substance there.
