Karlie Kloss is ditching her Victoria’s Secret Angel wings already

AT just 22 years of age, supermodel Karlie Kloss has stepped down as a Victoria’s Secret Angel, a new report has claimed.

KARLIE Kloss has stepped down as a Victoria’s Secret Angel.

Sources say the move was in part because of her relationship with boyfriend Joshua Kushner, whom she met at a 2012 Victoria’s Secret party.

A source told Page Six that the conservative Kushner, 29 — the successful entrepreneur behind a very private venture capital firm, and a scion of Kushner Properties — was involved with her decision not to continue being a VS lingerie model when her contract expired.

But ­another source close to the couple said, “That’s total bullsh*t!”

The sources added that the top model turned in her Angel wings to concentrate on classes at NYU, and that the time commitment she’d need to make to VS was unrealistic.

Busy Kloss, 22, who graces Vogue’s new cover with Taylor Swift, begins classes this year at NYU’s Gallatin School. The brainy beauty also still works with Nike, L’Oréal Paris, Joe Fresh and Kate Spade, and walked in Tom Ford’s LA fashion show Saturday after.

A rep for the couple had no comment but a VS exec told People: “It became clear she would not have the time to fulfil her myriad commitments.”

The supermodel has been one of the lingerie giant’s most popular faces since she was officially made an Angel in 2013.
