Glamorous touch down: Orlando Bloom carries baby Flynn as he arrives in Sydney today with his stunning Victoria model wife Miranda Kerr


Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr are gearing up for their first Australian Christmas with their son Flynn after arriving in the country looking better than the average flyers today.

The jet-setting pair arrived at the city’s Kingsford Smith airport (on Thursday morning in Australia) and the huge grin on Miranda’s picture perfect face indicated that she was happy to be back home.

The star had sunglasses at the ready as she stepped into Summertime Down Under but the clothes horse hardly needed to cover up as she managed to avoid the dreaded post-flight dehydrated look.


Perhaps her top form had something to do with her Nichiren Buddhism beliefs.

Kerr reportedly chants every morning and night for 20 minutes, practices yoga, meditates, and reads widely on spirituality.

She is also said to maintain her physique through daily yoga, light jogging, and a diet of steamed vegetables, fresh fruit, and fish.

With a touch of tinted lip gloss she stunned onlookers as she displayed shiny locks with a casual ensemble which included rolled-up jeans, a loose white top and a fetching green and white cardigan.

The star’s relaxed appearance showed the tell-tale signs of flying upper class as she didn’t appear at all affected by travelling in a cooped up cabin.

And there was no need for an entourage as far as the down-to-earth family were concerned.

Miranda willingly pulled her own hand luggage while her British beau transported Flynn in a baby carrier.

The protective father made sure the 11-month-old was well shielded from flashing camera bulbs, cradling his head as they made their way into the street.

The Victoria Secret model began dating the Lord of The Rings actor in late 2007 and they secretly wed in an intimate ceremony last year.

Now after the 28-year-old gave birth to their first child earlier this year, the couple are getting ready to spend the festive season with the brunette beauty’s family in Sydney.

The trip comes just one day after the trailer for LOTR spin-off, Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, was released.

Bloom moved his family over to New Zealand where he filmed the movie, where he was spotted enjoying a boys’ day out with his little one earlier this month.

Who's a big boy! Shirtless Orlando Bloom plants kisses on adorable baby boy Flynn... and he's not looking so bad himself

By Dianne King


Dishy Daddy: Orlando Bloom planted a big kiss on his adorable 11-month-old son Flynn yesterday after going for a swim in New Zealand


There's nothing more adorable than a doting father spending quality time with his child.

And Orlando Bloom was the epitome of a dishy daddy yesterday as he emerged shirtless from a swim with his 11-month-old tot Flynn.

The 34-year-old actor is currently in New Zealand where he is filming The Hobbit and he took some time out to bond with his precious little boy.


Orlando showed off where half of Flynn's gorgeousness comes from and looked scrumptious in just his red and blue board shorts.

His toned chest and fit body were on full display and he looked every inch the A-list hunk.

Of course the other half of Flynn's amazing gene pool comes from his Australian supermodel mother Miranda Kerr who wasn't there for the boys day out.

Sexy shirtless: The 34-year-old actor looked in great shape as he toted around his little one


The chubby little one was covered up in a blue and grey swimsuit with an attached hood that just allowed his cherubic face to peep out.

Orlando smothered his son with kisses and lifted him up in the air much to Flynn's delight.

They were joined by Orlando's mother who was also on hand to help out with her grandson in the district of Mapua.

Who's a big boy: The British actor enjoyed some quality time with Flynn and seemed to marvel at how much he was growing


Orlando and the rest of The Hobbit cast are expected to return to Canaan Downs to film more scenes for the hit franchise.

Miranda recently spoke about Orlando's costumes - in particular his silk boxer shorts she says he wears to help get in the zone of his role.

'He had to get into character so I bought [them] and it kind of helped,' she told Chelsea Handler on the late night show.


Yummy Mummy: Miranda is often seen carting around her cherubic baby as she travels the world for her modelling career


'Character for what?' Chelsea asked with Miranda responding, 'For, you know, us. I don't want to tell you what he bought me.'

Miranda recently bared all for a racy new photoshoot for Industrie magazine and says she's not shy about showing off her enviable figure.

The Victoria's Secret model insists that whether in lingerie or nude, the body is a beautiful thing.

'People should be comfortable with their bodies, it’s natural and, it’s not vulgar,' she told New York magazine earlier this month. 'It’s always done in a tasteful way.'

'Victoria's Secret is 'about promoting a healthy body image and a curvaceous image', the brunette beauty says of her employers.

'But I do think it’s important for anyone to have [an] exercise regime because then they feel better about themselves. It’s just as much a mental thing as it is a physical thing.'

Mum's the word! Now Miranda Kerr is left holding the baby as she takes over parenting duties from Orlando Bloom

By Mike Larkin


Bundle of joy: Australian actress Miranda Kerr went walkabout with Flynn in New York today while Orlando Bloom was pictured with his son yesterday


It is a hard life being one half of one of the world's most attractive celebrity couples.

Supermodel Miranda Kerr assumed parental duties today after her husband Orlando Bloom's turn yesterday.

The Aussie took her bouncing baby boy Flynn for a walkabout in New York.


The Victoria's Secret favourite carried her pride and joy in a zebra print blanket as she took him for some fresh air in the Big Apple today.

Her appearance in a stylish jacket and jeans combo comes hot on the heels of Lord of the Rings star Orlando gently cradling his elfy little boy as they went for a stroll.

The 34-year-old actor put a protective hand on his 11-month-old son's head, who was strapped on to his father in a baby sling yesterday.

Stylish: Miranda headed out and dropped Flynn off with the nanny before going on to run errands, dressed stylishly in jeans and a black jacket and scarf

Daddy day care: Orlando Bloom gently cradled his pride and joy as he chatted

The father-of-one displayed his remarkable multitasking skills as he made some calls on his mobile phone.

The Calcium Kid star often does daddy day care while Miranda is at work.

He looked as hunky as ever in a striped long-sleeve top and casual pair of black pants, while little Flynn kept his tootsies warm in some red socks.


Nice bag: Orlando Bloom was spotted out and about in New York with his wife Miranda Kerr on Tuesday and was holding her handbag

The father and son outing comes as the actor was spotted out and about in New York with Miranda on Tuesday, and was kindly holding her handbag.

As the couple strolled along downtown Manhattan with a friend, Orlando certainly didn't seem embarrassed to be clutching the feminine fashion accessory.

But it wasn't just her bag that Kerr wanted her man to hold on to.

Offloading: Miranda took advantage of her gentlemanly husband by first of all giving him her bag to hold as they strolled along Downtown Manhattan

The model was also carrying a meal replacement shake from the city's well-known health store, One Lucky Duck.

However, after she'd drank half of the healthy drink, that too was passed over to Pirates Of The Caribbean star - and he wore both very well.

Dressed in all in black in jeans, trainers and a tight-fitting jacket, Orlando attempted to go unnoticed as he spent time in the city by pulling his dark hood up.
His wife on the other hand looked fantastic as usual.

Showing off her enviable figure in a pair of blue skinny jeans, the mother-of-one walked in a pair of brown knee-high boots and finished off her look with a grey buttoned up jacket.

But Orlando wasn't the only male in her life to get his hands on her possessions.

Perfect husband: The model then took a swig of her meal replacement shake and then handed that over to Orlando as well

Earlier in the day, Flynn continuously tried to grab his mother's sunglasses off her as she stopped to talk to friends following a photo shoot at Milk Studios.

Miranda then proceeded to tickle Flynn and they both shared some laughs.

The supermodel, as always, looked effortlessly stunning and stylish in a pair of skinny jeans, a billowing blouse and a pair of black boots.

She also accessorised with a black leather satchel bag, had her brunette locks pulled back in a low-key ponytail and wore minimal make-up on her face.

Little Flynn looked adorable in a pinstripe all-in-one.

Miranda recently showed off her pet Yorkshire terrier Frankie on set of the Victoria's Secret Christmas catalogue.

Miranda, who is married to Hollywood actor Orlando Bloom, has taken a year-long break from modelling for the brand after giving birth to son Flynn.

And now she is being given a very special welcome back gift - the chance to wear a push-up bra worth $2.5m on the catwalk of the upcoming show.

Flawless: The supermodel as always looked effortlessly stunning and stylish in a pair of skinny jeans, a billowing blouse and a pair of leather boots

She posed up in the shoot wearing the Fantasy Treasure Bra and despite her flawless figure, all eyes were on the exquisite diamonds.

The turquoise bra was co-designed by Long Island’s London Jewelers

It is handset with nearly 3,400 precious gems, including 142 carats of white and yellow diamonds, pearls, faceted citrines and aquamarines, all set in 18-karat white and yellow gold.

The centerpiece features two white diamonds each more than eight carats and two 14-carat yellow diamonds.


Cuddles: As always Miranda doted all over her little boy

Miranda told People: 'It’s very special. And now I feel better than ever. I feel healthier than I’ve ever felt.

'It was wonderful to have a bit of time off after I was pregnant and having Flynn.

But now I’m back in the swing of things and it feels good.'

The November star-studded show will see Kanye West and Maroon 5 perform live.

Other models expected on the catwalk include Alessandra Ambrosio, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Doutzen Kroes, Chanel Iman, Lily Donaldson, Karolina Kurkova, Candice Swanepoel and Adriana Lima.

Let me out: Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr arrived at Heathrow airport with their baby son, Flynn, who appeared restless in his baby carrier


He may only be nine months old, but Orlando Bloom's son, Flynn, looks like he's ready to take his own steps already.

The baby boy was pictured with his famous father, and supermodel mother, Miranda Kerr, at Heathrow airport today but apppeared to be restless.

Doting parent, Bloom, carried his son in a Papoose baby carrier that was strapped to the front of his body and appeared to be struggling slightly as the child wriggled his arms and legs around.


Dressed in a stripy babygro and black jumper, Flynn's face was covered by a detachable hood on the carrier as he strolled through the terminal with his parents - with only his cute, chubby hands visible as he flailed his arms.

But the Pirates Of The Caribbean star looked every inch the happy father as he placed a gentle hand on Flynn's head and walked slightly ahead of his wife.

Wearing black trousers and a grey sweater, the 34-year-old actor smiled as he and his family prepared to board a flight to Switzerland.

Happy family: the actor looked every inch the doting father as he and his family prepared to board a flight to Switzerland

Kerr, 28, was more than happy to let her husband take the lead role and also had a permanent smile fixed to her face as she walked through the airport.

Looking stylish in a skinny pair of cropped jeans, with a denim shirt and camel coloured blazer, the Victoria's Secret model chose to wear brown suede ankle boots for the flight and carried an over-sized designer handbag.

Although she seemed happy to smile for the camera, Kerr kept her sunglasses on inside the airport as she kept up with her family.

Perhaps the couple should purchase a pair of reins as it seems little Flynn will be running around in no time.

'Give ME the epidural!' Orlando Bloom struggled to deal with seeing me in pain during labour, reveals Miranda Kerr

By Andrea Magrath


Painful for some: Miranda Kerr has revealed that her husband Orlando Bloom asked if he could get an epidural during the birth of their son Flynn


For many soon-to-be fathers, watching their partners go through labour and feeling helpless is tormenting.

Miranda Kerr has revealed that her husband Orlando Bloom came up with a novel way for him to be able to deal with seeing her in so much pain during the birth of their baby Flynn.

As his wife had refused drugs, the actor suggested that he could perhaps have an epidural instead.

Big baby: Miranda says she didn't expect Flynn, who weighed in at over 10lbs, to be such a big baby and admits she was 'crazy' to go without an epidural


In a revealing interview with Australian television program Sunday Night, the supermodel discussed her previously revealed stance on having a natural birth.

'I had made the decision to not have any drugs, no epidural, nothing,' the 28-year-old said.

'Each to their own. I'm crazy for doing that! A lot of my friends who have had epidurals have said, "Oh (labour) was so great".'

Give me the drugs! The supermodel reveals that husband Orlando joked that he should be allowed to have the epidural as it pained him to see Miranda in turmoil


Asked if her resolve wavered at any point during the labour, she admitted: 'I remember looking at Orlando and saying "Oh honey."'

'And he said, "Give me the epidural! Seriously, if you don't want it I'll take it because right now I'm dying watching you go through this pain".'

'I didn't realise (Flynn) was going to be such a big baby.'

Not love at first sight: Miranda says it was Orlando's 'persistence' that finally won her over, and that she was reluctant to date a movie star


Miranda also revealed that it was not love at first sight when she met Orlando, 34.

'I think it was his persistence,' she said. 'Maybe he wanted me because he thought he couldn't have me.'

Asked if his movie star status put him off, she admitted: 'I was reluctant - not about him, but the idea of that (him being a movie star).'

It was during the Sunday Night interview that Miranda revealed the tragic inspiration behind Flynn's middle name.

Growing brood? She says she 'always thought I'd have three children,' but wants to focus on Flynn for now


Close to tears, the Australian model as she discussed her teenage boyfriend Christopher, who died in a car accident shortly after Miranda moved to Brisbane from their country town of Gunnedah.

Miranda said: 'He was my first love. We were young and we talked about everything; having kids and getting married.

'He died so instantly. It was quite a shock.

'I wrote him a letter after he died, saying I would name my first child after him and that is what I have done. 'Orlando was very kind and understanding. He said if you want, you can do that.'

Tribute: Miranda named Flynn after him, giving the baby Christopher as a middle name


She said she thought Christopher would be proud of her if he were still alive.
Right now, Miranda rates her life as: 'ten-out-of-ten happy.'

As to having more children, Miranda said: 'I always thought I would have three. Right now I'm just trying to enjoy Flynn.

'They say the first three years are the most important, so I want to make sure that he gets the attention and the nurturing and love that he really needs. so we'll see what happens.

Reunion: The program surprised Miranda by flying her grandparents out to LA to meet Flynn for the first time

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

White swan: Model Miranda Kerr looks ballet ready as she and actor Orlando Bloom arrive at the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty Costume Institute Gala in New York this evening


Orlando Bloom recently described his wife Miranda Kerr as his 'lioness.'

But she looked more like a prima ballerina as she arrived at the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty Costume Institute Gala in New York City this evening.

With her brown hair pulled back into a neat chignon, the 28-year-old Victoria's Secret model resembled a cast member for the ballet Swan Lake in a white strapless tulle and lace creation which flared outwards at the waist.


Dressed for success: Miranda posed in a white lace and tulle ballet style dress, complete with matching purse and ornate lace shoes


A matching jewelled purse and ornate laced shoes completed her look.
They couple seemed happy and relaxed as they posed for photographs on the red carpet.

Perhaps they were looking forward to a night off from looking after their baby son Flynn who was born in January.

Miranda has already returned to work as a model, much to the surprise of her husband.


All smiles: The proud parents of four-month-old Flynn looked relaxed as they enjoyed a night off from baby duty


'She is a little insane,' he recently told Ellen DeGeneres. 'She’s of her own mind.'
He also paid tribute to the model's svelte appearance following the birth of Flynn.

'It’s genetics. It’s amazing,' he said. 'She looks incredible, a lot of breast-feeding.'

Meanwhile, the 34-year-old star is also returning to work after a four year break from the big screen.

He stars alongside Mark Ruffalo and Laura Linney in Sympathy for Delicious.

The film is about an actor who lost the use of his legs after a rock-climbing accident, in which Orlando plays a potty-mouthed punk rocker appropriately called, The Stain.
