Miranda Kerr Gets Honest About the Depression She Faced After Her Split From Orlando Bloom

Miranda Kerr is opening up about one of the hardest chapters of her life. On The Jess Rowe Big Talk Show, the model and Kora Organics founder revealed that her 2013 separation from Orlando Bloom led her into a period of depression, one that surprised her because she’s always considered herself a naturally joyful person. The couple married in 2010, welcomed son Flynn in 2011, and agreed the split was mutual. Still, Kerr said her body needed time to catch up with her mind, so she let herself process the feelings instead of forcing a quick fix.

Her healing toolkit? Meditation, yoga, and forgiveness. Kerr described it simply as a time to“forgive and release,”and she’s been vocal about the power of doing that inner work. She also kept things friendly with Bloom and made Flynn the priority, choosing cooperation over conflict. These days Kerr is married to Evan Spiegel, Bloom shares daughter Daisy with Katy Perry, and both families seem to be thriving.

What makes Kerr’s story resonate is how relatable it is beneath the Hollywood gloss. A breakup can hit you even when you know it’s right, and the path forward usually involves patience, support, and a lot of grace. Her honesty is a reminder that healing isn’t a straight line, and asking for help along the way is never a bad move.
