Kerr and Bloom not betrothed

LONDON, Dec. 1 (UPI) -- Miranda Kerr's publicist says the Australian model isn't engaged to her British beau Orlando Bloom, contrary to media reports claiming otherwise.

Kerr is known for her work for the lingerie giant Victoria's Secret. Bloom has starred in "The Pirates of the Caribbean" and "The Lord of the Rings" blockbusters.

"The story ... is completely false and misleading," Kerr's publicist told People magazine of reports that the couple plan to wed. "Miranda herself has clearly stated she is not engaged. There is nothing else to be said."

Bloom's representative echoed the statement, telling Usmagazine.com, "These rumors are not true."

Kerr and Bloom reportedly have been dating since early this year.
