LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Supermodel Karlie Kloss and her husband Joshua Kushner are celebrating the birth of their second child. On Tuesday, July 11, the couple welcomed their newest bundle of joy into the world, and Kushner took to Instagram on Thursday to share the exciting news. The proud father expressed their happiness and gratitude for the newest addition to their family, accompanied by a sweet photo of their little one. The gender of the baby was not revealed.
"Welcome to [the world] 7.11.23," he captioned the photo. Earlier in May, Kloss and Kushner made a special announcement about their growing family during their attendance at the Met Gala. The former Victoria's Secret model proudly showcased her baby bump, elegantly draped in a form-fitting black column dress. Kloss' stunning ensemble was further accentuated by lengthy strands of pearls and intricate beading around the waist, adding an extra touch of glamour to the occasion.
How did Karlie Kloss meet Joshua Kushner?
In November 2012, Us Weekly reported that Kloss and Kushner had officially started dating, confirming their budding romance to the public. The couple has been in a relationship since then, although the exact circumstances and timing of their first meeting remain a mystery. The public only gained insight into their connection when Kloss tweeted, "four years ago today I met my best friend" in 2016.
In 2014, Kloss offered rare insights into her relationship, emphasizing that falling in love was not something she had expected or planned. She said, "I was definitely not planning on falling in love, but I think that’s the thing about it. You can’t anticipate or plan it." In 2018, Kloss took to Instagram to announce her engagement. "I love you more than I have words to express. Josh, you’re my best friend and my soulmate. I can’t wait for forever together. Yes a million times over," she wrote.
When did Karlie Kloss and Joshua Kushner get married?
The pair tied the knot a few months later in a wedding ceremony held in upstate New York in October 2018. They celebrated their special day surrounded by loved ones, and Kloss took to Twitter to share a picture of herself and Kushner in their wedding attire. Speaking of her life as a newlywed in Vogue's October 2018 issue, Kloss said, "Josh and I share a lot of the same liberal values that guide our lives and the things we stand for. We’ve really grown together personally and professionally. Josh knows that I’m just a nerdy, curious human being. I think that’s why he loves me. We have each other’s back."
Kloss and Kushner became parents for the first time in 2021 with the arrival of their son, Levi Joseph. In April 2022, Kloss opened up, discussing the significant shift in her priorities following the experience of becoming a mother. "I just had this moment of like, ‘Wow, every woman who has a child, every parent goes through this,'" she explained. "It's just the most profound experience that I had no idea until having a kid." She added, "Priorities change. Everything changes. I think the last few years have changed us as well. I have become, first of all, so much more efficient with my time. I'm actually on time everywhere now."
