Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom haven’t been romantically together since 2013, but they will forever be “family” thanks to their son, Flynn.

Kerr, 43, revealed on the Tuesday, August 4, episode of the “Let’s Be Honest” podcast that she and Bloom, 49, have been great coparents “from day one.”

The model confessed, “It’s obviously not easy when you’re separating and there’s always a level of hurt even if you both know it’s for the right reasons. So there’s always a level of hurt both ways I would say in any separation.”

However, she and Bloom chose to focus on their son, Flynn, now 15, and his needs following their divorce. (The pair were married three years from 2010 to 2013 before they parted ways.)

“The most important thing that I learnt is just to put the needs of the child first,” Kerr explained of their post-split dynamic.

She told host Kristin Cavallari that she always asked herself, “Is this in the best interest of Flynn?”

Kerr was adamant about getting her and Bloom’s “needs out of the way” and instead focused on the well-being of their son, adding, “And that was really our guidepost for any decision.”

The KORA Organics founder noted that her history with Bloom has helped improve their coparenting relationship.

“Through that, we’ve known each other for a long time, we’ve developed such a good friendship that he’s just part of the family,” Kerr said. “He’s like a brother, you know? So we have that.”

In addition to son Flynn, Kerr is the mother of sons Hart, 8, and Myles, 6, and Pierre, 2, whom she shares with husband Evan Spiegel. (The Australian native married Spiegel, 36, in 2017.)

Like Kerr, Spiegel has always been all-in on working alongside Bloom to coparent.

“What I saw from Miranda and Orlando was very different from what I experienced,” the Snapchat CEO told WSJ. Magazine in July 2020. “I am in no way a replacement for Flynn’s dad. I feel like [I’m part of] Team Flynn.”

Spiegel added at the time that he admired Kerr’s “Aussie way” of letting everyone into their home, including Bloom and any of Flynn’s friends.

“This is one of the things I love about Miranda,” Spiegel said. “Everyone is welcome.”

Bloom, for his part, is also the father of daughter Daisy, 5, whom he shares with ex-fiancée Katy Perry.

Us exclusively confirmed in June 2025 that Perry, 41, and Bloom had called off their engagement after nearly a decade of dating.

Kerr, meanwhile, proved that her friendship with the Pirates of the Caribbean actor was still intact — and that Perry would always be part of her life as well.

“We’re one big, happy family,” Kerr said during a September 2025 appearance on KIIS FM’s “Kyle & Jackie O Show.”

She continued, “Katy is amazing, I love her. And Orlando obviously.”

Kerr noted that she had just seen them both “on the weekend” as they were “celebrating” Daisy’s birthday together.

Perry has since moved on romantically with Justin Trudeau.
