London, Aug 11 (PTI) Supermodel Miranda Kerr moved to Malibu to be closer to ex-husband Orlando Bloom as they thought it would offer their son a better lifestyle.
The 33-year-old model was very happy living in New York but she and her former spouse, who she split from in 2013 - agreed California would allow their five-year-old son a "better lifestyle" and so she splashed out USD 2 million on an eco-conscious home near the actor's house, reported Female First.
"Orlando and I were living in New York, and we loved it there. But we were considering what the best options were for our son. Orlando owned a place in Malibu, and he was saying that he wanted to move here.
"We thought it would be a better lifestyle for Flynn. He could be outside playing year-round, playing in the sand. We could have a garden. I started looking for houses because we wanted to be close as a family," Kerr said.
When she bought the house, one of Kerr's "priorities" was to splash out on a clear acrylic baby grand piano.
"When I was a child, I spent a lot of time at my grandma's house. People were coming in and out. She was always in the kitchen making something. There was always food and snacks.
"She would play the piano, and we would sing and dance.
So those were my two priorities. I wanted to have a piano and a great kitchen, which is always the heart of the home," the model said.
