Miranda Kerr has opened up about losing her first boyfriend in a car accident when she was a teenager.
The n model, 41, revealed on the Not Alone Podcast she was left shocked and heartbroken when her boyfriend Christopher Middlebrook died suddenly.
Miranda, who has four sons and shares three with husband Evan Spiegel, admitted her life could have turned out very different if the tragic accident didn’t happen.
‘My boyfriend passed away when I was a teenager. If that hadn’t happened I would have been happily married and been a country bumpkin like I was,’ she said.
‘The fact he died so suddenly was such a shock to my system because he died in a car accident. It was a lesson to not take anything for granted in my life.’
Miranda also revealed she suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage after welcoming her first son Flynn, 13, with her ex husband Orlando Bloom, who she was with from 2010 to 2013.
‘I actually had a miscarriage – and it was a boy as well,’ she revealed.
Miranda said she was ‘naïve’ during her first pregnancy, becoming much more ‘knowledgeable’ with each subsequent birth.

‘So with each pregnancy I became more knowledgeable and a little more concerned about what might go wrong,’ she added.

She remains close with her ex Bloom and his fiancée Katy Perry, with the singer, 39, previously saying their relationship dynamic was that of a ‘modern family’.

Miranda also revealed at the annual Baby2Baby gala in Los Angeles last week her nine-month-old son Pierre was named after her late grandfather.
‘His name is Pierre after my late grandfather, Peter. So French for Peter,’ she told People, revealing the sweet provenance of the child’s name.
When asked what her other boys think of the new arrival, Miranda was happy to report they adored the youngest in the family.
‘They love him,’ she said, before adding that Pierre is the ‘light of our home.’
‘He’s just a little ray of sunshine and his brothers just adore him.’
‘When you’re having a new baby coming into the home, you often wonder, you’re like, “Oh, how are the boys going to react?” But they adore him,’ the former Victoria’s Secret Angel added.
