Miranda Kerr engaged to Snapchat founder
Supermodel Miranda Kerr is set to wed Snapchat founder Evan Spiegel after 13 months of dating.
The Australian beauty, 33, embarked on a romance with the billionaire businessman in June, 2015, and now the couple is engaged, according to DailyMail.com.
A representative for Spiegel, who was reportedly spotted ring
shopping earlier this month (Jul16), tells the publication, "They
are extremely happy."
The bride-to-be has since shown off her large round solitaire
engagement ring on Instagram.com, in a black-and-white snap which
features animated versions of the couple, with Evan on one knee.
The cartoon also has the words: "Marry me!"
"I said yes!!!" she captioned the image, adding a series of hearts
and smiley face emojis with hearts as eyes.
The news emerges two months after Miranda and Evan decided to move
in together, purchasing a $12 million four-bedroom, six-bathroom
mansion in Brentwood, California in May (16).
Miranda and her beau made their red carpet debut together at a
pre-Grammy Awards party in February (16). The model also shared her
first photos of the couple's romance on social media in March (16),
when she posted a number of sweet shots from their trip to
Washington, D.C. on Instagram.com.
She recently opened up about her life with Evan, who turned 26 in
June (16), insisting their age difference has never been a problem
because he is mature beyond his years.
"He's 25, but he acts like he's 50," she told Net-A-Porter's The
EDIT magazine in January (16). "He's not out partying. He goes to
work in Venice (Beach, California), he comes home.
"We don't go out. We'd rather be at home and have dinner, go to bed
early. (But) in some ways he does (feel like a younger man). I'm
telling you, I've got the best of both worlds."
The marriage will be Miranda's second after previously tying the
knot with British actor Orlando Bloom in 2010. The former couple,
which split in 2013, shares five-year-old son Flynn together, and
she revealed Evan gets along well with her boy.
"(My ex and I decided) that we had to know the person for six
months and feel good about them (before introducing them to
Flynn)," she explained. "Evan met Flynn, so yeah, things are going
well. Orlando thinks he's great. We're just a modern family
now!"
Orlando has also moved on from the failed marriage - he is
reportedly dating pop star Katy Perry.
