Miranda Kerr revealed that she seriously considered returning to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show runway for its 2026 iteration but ultimately decided against it. Kerr, who last walked the show in 2012, discussed her decision on a recent episode of the "Not Skinny But Not Fat" podcast.
"Everyone’s in their underwear," Kerr stated, explaining her hesitation at 43 years old and as the mother of four boys. "I got, like, this knot in my stomach, and as much as I try to meditate and ease it, it was still there." She added that the only way to resolve the feeling was to decline the opportunity, which brought immediate peace.
Kerr acknowledged that while her team encouraged her to participate, she feels she is "at a different stage in my life." She holds fond memories of her time with the brand, noting, "What an honor to be asked to walk back as a 43-year-old mother of four, like I feel very humbled and honored that they would even want me."
She is one of the most recognizable former Victoria's Secret models, having participated in the show six times since her debut in 2006. Kerr made a surprise return to the runway in September for Stella McCartney, nearly a decade after her last fashion show appearance.
Kerr is currently focused on her Kora Organics skincare line and raising her four sons: Flynn, 15, Hart, 8, Myles, 7, and Pierre, 2. She shares Flynn with ex-husband Orlando Bloom and her younger three sons with her husband Evan Spiegel, whom she married in 2017.
