Orlando Bloom - Miranda Kerr Grateful For Love

Miranda Kerr is "grateful" to have Orlando Bloom in her life.

The Australian model - who has been dating the British actor since late 2007 - said they are very happy together but insists they have no plans to get married just yet.

She said: "I think Orlando is an incredible man and he's a very genuine and authentic individual. I'm grateful that he's in my life. No, we're not engaged. You can't always believe everything you read!"

Miranda, 26, was photographed wearing a ring on the third finger of her left hand at the Cannes Film Festival in France last May but claims it was an "innocent" mistake because of the unpredictable weather.

She explained to Britain's Hello! magazine: "We were in Cannes at the film festival and it was so hot that my fingers were swelling. I was wearing it on that finger because that's the only one it would fit on. It was totally an innocent thing."

Despite having to juggle their relationship between her home in New York and the 33-year-old actor’s Los Angeles base, the Victoria's Secret beauty insists life couldn't be better.

She said: "It has been great... it always seems to work out. We both appreciate each other and enjoy life."

Her father John also said he'd given his seal of approval to the film star - because of his love of biking.

He said: "Orlando is a good guy. He's into motorbikes so he's got to be a good guy. We went dirt biking together nearly all day once. I love my motorbikes and Miranda does too, although since the modelling took off she hasn't really been on one other than on the back of one with Orlando."
