“ I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m with Bruce Willis right now and we’re making out …’ and even he [said] ‘Isn’t acting weird?”

In real life, the LA-based model is in a happy relationship with Australian actor Xavier Samuel.

Despite their hectic schedules, they make it work with plenty of FaceTime.

“We’re just really open and honest with each other about where we’re at, and we communicate really well,
she said. “It’s serious, and I’m very happy … it’s felt really easy and we bring out the best in one another.”

The LA-based model has returned to Sydney to attend the InStyle and Audi Women of Style Awards at The Star on Wednesday night.
