Dating isn’t always a snap for Victoria’s Secret models.
Miranda Kerr had to make the first move with her husband, billionaire Snap Inc. founder Evan Spiegel, she revealed in a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal magazine.
Six years ago, the pair were seated next to each other at a Louis Vuitton event at the Museum of Modern Art, when Kerr struck up a conversation with the tech tycoon.
They had a great time chatting, and Kerr told Spiegel her favorite song was “Spiegel im Spiegel,” by Estonian composer Arvo Pärt, a tune he had never heard. They then exchanged numbers and Spiegel abruptly left.
“All of a sudden he gets up,” Kerr told the magazine and explained that he never followed up.
A month later, Kerr got up the courage to text Spiegel a message that said, “Just wondering—did you ever listen to that song, ‘Spiegel im Spiegel’?”
Unbeknownst to Kerr, the only reason Spiegel — who is reportedly worth $5.2 billion — hadn’t reached out first was because he had no idea she was interested in him.
“I thought I had no chance [with Miranda], so I wasn’t going to waste my time,” Spiegel said in the Journal interview.
Today, Kerr, 37, and Spiegel, 30, have been married for nearly three years and share two sons together, 2-year-old Hart and 9-month-old Miles.
Kerr also shares 9-year-old son Flynn with ex-husband Orlando Bloom, whom she was married to from 2010 to 2013.
