They’ve got love!
Just like in the beloved romantic comedyYou’ve Got Mail,Behati Prinslooreveals she and her husbandAdam Levinefell in love over email.
The flirty correspondence started after a mutual friend introduced Prinsloo, 31, to the Maroon 5 frontman, 39, while he was casting for one of his music videos.
“I met my husband through a mutual friend. Adam was looking for a girl for a music video that could do some action stuff, and our friend was like, ‘You should meet Behati because she’s a total tomboy and down for anything,’ so he emailed me asking if I could do it,” she told Net-A-Porter’sPORTER Edit’smagazine for the latest cover story.
While she ultimately didn’t take the job, the pair never stopped talking.
“I ended up not doing it, but we kept emailing each other. It was such a natural correspondence that we kind of fell in love over email. A month later, I went toLAfor a job, and that was the first time we met in person,” she told the publication.
While the supermodel described their initial meeting as “so awkward,” she admitted sparks flew quickly later that same evening.
“He took me for dinner and we talked for hours and had the best time. It was love at first sight, it was crazy,” she recalled. “We broke up for two months, realized that it was the worst decision, then got back together, got engaged and got married. It was a wild ride!”

During her pregnancies, Prinsloo admits she didn’t feel any pressure to get back in shape after having children.
“I’ve been modeling for 15 years and when I got pregnant, I wanted to enjoy my time. No one pressured me to return to work, not even Victoria’s Secret, who I was under contract with – they never asked me when I was going to be back,” she added of getting back into the modeling game after her second child.
Prinsloo also told the magazine she is “finally enjoying getting dressed again,” now that she isn’t pregnant or breastfeeding.
“I was literally living in yoga pants. But a few months ago I put them on and was like, ‘No, it’s time to put on jeans and wear a normal outfit.’ I lovejeansand a T-shirt. Adam gets me crazysneakersand I have a closet full of shoes, but I usually wear Dr. Martens,” she said.
While her oldest is still only 2-years-old, Prinsloo says she has already developed “her own sense of style.”
As a working mom who has been taking on projects here and there while gradually returning from maternity leave (“I’m [currently]keeping work very casual andnot trying to be everywhere and show that I’m ‘back’ — it’s tough being a mom,” she said), Prinsloo told the magazine that “the people I look up to the most are working mothers.”
“It’s awesome to see these amazing, strong women with kids and a career, killing it at both,” she revealed.
